    The Serum All My Friends - And Facialist - Want To Try

    Mostly cos I won’t shut up about it. Also, my skin is looking pretty great. My hyperpigmentation is basically non-existent, to the point where my facialist, who I had not seen for 6 months, asked if I’d tried some fandangle new laser. Given it was directly after summer, when melanin really kicks off, this was extremely validating.

    In the AM!

    Very Amazing Retinal is Very Useful in your evening routine, only.

    That A+ looking skin you see in the morning? It needs SPF protection.

    In the PM!

    Post-cleanse, and on dry skin, apply 1-2 pumps to your whole face. Right down to the neck and chest. Allow the serum to absorb into the skin, before following on with additional serums (non-active, hydrating is ok!), face oils, and creams.

    Do not use exfoliating acids on the same day (try Skin Cycling instead). And if you are new to retinal or new to our formula, we recommend starting very slow. Try incorporating this serum into your evening routine once or twice a week, before gradually building up tolerance for more frequent use.

    We said whole face, but you be the judge. If you’re looking to target fine lines around the eye only, or find this delicate area is much more sensitive than other parts of your face, we have a dedicated eye product that should do the trick.

    And remember! Always patch test before use.

      Very powerful, but too powerful for my skin

      I've been using the Retinal for exactly 12 weeks now, but sadly, I haven't noticed the wonderful benefits because I haven't progressed beyond using it 1 night a week (even with the sandwich method + 1 pump). It dries my skin so much that I flake, making my fine lines look deeper. Previously, I had been using another brand of Retinal 5 nights a week for 6 months, with no reaction before switching to Go-To. It's just too super-duper-powerful for my skin. I'm disappointed because I love the ingredients and the price. I'll finish the bottle and maybe try again in the future.

      So far, so good!!

      Been using this about every other night for the past month and my skin is visibly smoother with a more even tone. Fine lines have diminished as well. I only had minor redness the next day after the first couple times using it. No major peeling or breakouts. Not sticky and is good as a base at night.

      Orange stains and a frustrating pump bottle

      Not only do I fight with this pump bottle to even get the liquid into my palm, my face is orange and smears orange all over my pillows when I sleep. I’m wondering, was this product tested before it was released?

      I’m a Go To fan but will not be purchasing this one again.

      Hi, we're sorry to hear about your experience with Very Amazing Retinal! It sounds like you may have a dud pump there as it should be free moving and effortless to get the product out. We are happy to send a replacement your way if needed! As for the orange stain, a few skincare products are more prone to staining (clothing, linen, etc.). Retinal can be one of them. To be on the safe side, allow your serum to settle into the skin, before throwing on PJs. Email us at info@gotoskincare.com if you'd like to chat further!
