Hey! Saw a lot of comments regarding k secret actual concentration. Can you please clarify if it is actually the equivalent of boj instead of the ordinary? I saw someone in the comments that want to move up from g&g 1 to k secret, but this might be a “move down”. I myself just ordered the k secret one because i wanted a higher concentration than the g&g a game. So, how is it in the end? Am i going down or up with this serum? Would really appreciate a clarification from you 🙏

Did some more research and found k secret giving this description for the retinal serum: “Formulated with 2% Retinal Liposome (0.02% Pure Retinal) and Black Ginseng, this serum promotes a youthful, radiant complexion, addressing skin texture, hydration, and the reduction of wrinkles.” So, it’s the equivalent of boj, not the ordinary 😊

It seems that the Ordinary saw the success of G&G retinal at 0.1 strength and by releasing this they are going to take all of us who wished for a stronger formulation but with the similar texture/application. Already ordered this, hopefully it will give better results as my skin got used to G&G and plateaued

I think The Ordinary have been very late bringing this to market and I also think they will see how it performs sales wise and then produce a larger size.

Hi Rob! Great options, thank you for sharing x Just a word of caution; Regarding the Seol 1988 alternative, if you look at the ingredients, retinal is very far down in the ingredient list (like the 20th+), so it’s very unlikely it’s 2%retinal (it’s most likely 2%complex). All the formulas with 2%retinal list retinal as the 5th -10th ingredient (at most! Sometimes it’s listed as the 2nd or 3rd ingredient,for a 20% retinal formulation). All the bests!!!

Hm, but isn't there a lot of controversy coming out recently about the stability of retinal as an ingredient? It's way less stable than retinol - I heard them talking about this on chemist confessions podcast as well, and how skeptical they were of most retinal formulations out there. I'd love to hear what the ordinary did to achieve a balance of stability while also allowing the ingredient to release in the skin.

@@kristinjohansson9031 Right, and I also wonder about the efficacy of encapsulation to begin with. Retinal by itself in a formula has been shown to completely degrade in a matter of minutes and hours. The only research I know of testing encapsulation only extended that by a few days, not months like what is labeled on bottles. I don't trust the G&G formula much either for this reason. The science doesn't really make sense to me, and there are so many reports of this formula doing nothing. Medik8 is definitely the most trustworthy of the retinals with their double encapsulation technology, but then that raises questions about how it can be released in the skin. Additionally, I don't think there is anything in the research out there as far as I know that backs up these claims that it's "10x more effective" than retinol. To me, Retinal is just way too new and needs a lot more research. Most of the products seem to be based on hokey marketing claims. I'd rather use a high strength retinol or 0.025% tretinoin, which have been studied for many years.

Use a ton of moisturizer after and during the morning with other skin care and your skin will be fine. It's much better than the Avene RetinAL in my opinion and I'd rather have it smaller. You only need a pea size and I'd rather buy a new bottle fresh. I've had so many products go bad because I didn't use them quickly enough.

Hi Rob! Love your channel and all your great reviews! I have been using Tret for 8 years. I started at the 0.05 % and over time have moved to the 0.1% every night. I have no irritation at all anymore because I worked up slowly. I use a lot of The Ordinary products and I’m wondering if this product would be an improvement/upgrade to what I’m currently using, in terms of potency and anti aging. I’m 58 years old and my skin is very youthful looking, so I’m lucky, but I also know that prolonged use of Tret has definitely been the key. Would you recommend switching over to this new product and dropping the Tret? I value your opinion and expertise! ❤ from New Hampshire, USA

Wow, I am late to the game on this video. 🤪. I notice you never mention the Youth To The People Retinal. It's priced above Maelove but well below Medik8. I love it because it has .15% retinal and discloses 5% niacinamide, which we know boosts the efficacy of retinal, but only Maelove has it and doesn't disclose the amount. Geek and Gorgous, Medik8, and now TO's does not include niacinamide at all. This launch from TO is great for a budget retinal but i think would need paired with a skin barrier serum to really maximize the effects.

Hello Rob, did you try Liquid Happiness by Skintra? It's a 0.3% retinal in an oil form and quite cheap (about 15 euro). I'm using it on my neck & chest, I'd love to hear your opinion about it, I hope you will test it and let us know! :) About The Ordinary's retinal, I definitely agree with you, 15 ml is way too little for a retinal serum, make it 30 ml (and don't double the price)! I'm surprised, on their video they recommend to gradually increase to 2 times a week only 🧐. That's way too little. I have really sensitive skin and experience zero irritation with retinal products, I doubt one could only use this twice a week. The Maelove serum has fragrance and alcohol denat, unfortunately :(

Hi Rob, off topic but I have a question that maybe could be a future video. Have you tried, or do you have an opinion on Niod NEC? Do you think it has any special properties that can truly help with aging neck/jawline firmness, and if not, are there any products that do? I've been using it for years, but mainly in a "hope in a tube" kind of way, without any real knowledge whether these ingredients are doing what I'm hoping they're going to do. Anyway, thanks for considering! xx.

Beauty of Joseon’s Retinal product also has 2% Retinal Liposome in it, with only 0.02% active Retinal (it says on their website). Surely, the K Secret Retinal which also has 2% Retinal Liposome in it, has 0.02% active Retinal as well and therefore is not comparable to The Ordinary’s 0.2% Retinal?

Hey Rob, just to let you know you’re obviously unaware but Youth to the People has a retinal and niacinamide youth serum that is right in the middle. It is 0.15 I believe 👌🏻

This was very informative. I've learned about products I may not otherwise know about! I've recently purchased a retinol product by Clear Skin Days which claims to have 5% retinol which seems very high. Do you know of this product? I'd appreciate your thoughts.

I think I would have been very interested in this about a year ago, although the tiny size would have given me a lot of pause. What a bizarre choice. A year ago, I was not feeling very impressed with my results from my first tube of Naturium 0.05% retinal. I probably would have gone to their 0.1% retinal and then looked forward to upgrading to this product from the Ordinary (if it had been out at the time). But instead I started getting more acne and ended up on Differin. Now that I know how well my super sensitive skin tolerates adapalene, I don’t see myself using any retinal/retinol products in the future. My derm might give me an Rx for 0.3% adapalene this week, which I’m excited to try. From there, if I still feel like I need an upgrade, I’ll switch to tretinoin. But because I tolerate adapalene so well, I may stick with that forever!

Hey, Rob. I really like the Original products I've used. Probably wont try the new serum. I have a question for you, though. I'm really trying to find the highest over the counter strength in a retinal. I'm just at a standstill and I've tried so many. Any suggestions. I'm even using the VT Reedle shot. Nothing. I think I'll up it to the 300. Anyway, I'd love any suggestions you may have.

I'm seriously thinking about buying the new ordinary retinal. Will 15ml last me a full month if I use it every night? Or would I need to buy 2 so that it lasts me a full month?
@ScoobyDoosMom
2 ай бұрын
I was going to purchase 2 but I’m not clear as to whether retinal can start to go bad from when you receive it, even if you don’t open it? I use Tret on my face so this is just for my neck and chest but given the small pancaking, probably won’t last too long assuming my neck & chest tolerate it well. Been using .1% retinal (by Avene on my neck for the last month.

Robert, thank you for this video. But I doubt that The ordinary has the same incapsulated retinal technology as Medik8. Despite I have sensitive skin I don't have any irritation at all with Medik8 crystal retinal. I have also tried Avene Physiolift night retinal cream and although it has lesser amount of retinal in comparison with Medik8 I coudn't use it every day. What do you think about it?
