FAQ
How does this compare to Western drugstore retinol creams?
It's significantly cheaper for the same active ingredient. Products like Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair or RoC Retinol Correxion cost $25 to $40 for 1oz. This gives you 1.7oz for around $15 to $20. The retinol concentration is similar (around 0.3% to 0.5%), and it's a medicated quasi drug with government approved wrinkle improvement claims.
Is this a good first retinol product?
Yes. The retinol is buffered in a hyaluronic acid base, which makes it gentler than straight retinol creams. Start with every other night and build up. The combination of retinol and niacinamide also means you're getting wrinkle care plus brightening in one product.
Can I use this if I'm already using Hada Labo Gokujyun Lotion?
Absolutely. The Wrinkle Care Cream is designed to layer over the Gokujyun Lotion. Use the lotion first for hydration, then the retinol cream to seal it in and deliver the anti aging actives.
