CetaphilHealthy Renew Anti Aging Face Serum 1 Oz, Retinol Alternative Serum for Face with Niacinamide & Peptides, Skincare for Sensitive Skin with Vitamin B Complex, Fragrance Free

I saw the recommendations on social media and placed my order with skepticism. However, while it's hard to imagine it being so affordable, it works surprisingly well. I used it for a total of two weeks and I feel like my skin is healing on its own, with fewer pimples and finer skin.

I absolutely love it! Feels amazing when my skin and my husband even made a comment about how my skin looks really good.(which is not something usual for him to even notice lol)I would definitely recommend!

❤4.5 Stars previously but updating to 5 stars because after finishing this serum I did repurchase during the spring sale because I love the results so far and my skin looks significantly better: smoother, healthier, plump, radiant, and glowy. My 5yo daughter said "Mommy, why is your skin so shiny" lol... I have not used retinol in 2 weeks because I ran out and have been researching for a new one. I continued to use this product consistently however and can confidently credit this product for some of my skin's improvement. Was happy to be able to repurchase during a sale and am now subsribed to recieve it regularly. I previously complained about the price because my actives are the same price and I couldn't really justify the price for a product that isn't really a staple like Vit C or Retinol BUT again, I do appreciate the delivery, the design, the ingredients, and the results.This is gentle enough to use on 'repair day/ night' of my skin cycling routine. I find it soothing and hydrating, and it layers well with other products. I love that it pairs well with my sunscreen too so I can definitely wear it during the day; unlike some products that begin to beed up when you put your sunscreen over it. I love the design and delivery but I wonder if those add a lot to the price. Maybe I shouldn't complain as I would not want to see either aspect changed. I already use other somewhat pricey actives that are a must (Vitamin C & Retinol) so it would be great if this product were a little more affordable since it's not a skincare staple (yet?). I would like to repurchase, but I'd also like to see the price come down. I would like to continue to have this as part of my skin cycling routine though so I hope it's not one of those products that gets discontinued. I do think it will last me a while since I am currently using it at a rate of 2 days and 2 night per week. I am using other powerful actives and currently have no wrinkles or fine lines so it's hard to say yet if I have had a reduction in those things due to this product, but I do credit it as a great preventative. (Actually I do have a line trying to form on my forehead near my hairline, and I have noticed a difference since using this for 4 weeks now) Overall, I would probably repurchase while staying on the lookout for deals on it. A good deal every once in a while and I would definitely repurchase.

I’ve tried several anti-aging face gels in the past, and I have to say, the Cetaphil Healthy Renew Anti-Aging Face Gel has become my new favorite! As a working mom, my skincare routine needs to be quick, effective, and gentle—and this product checks all the boxes.I’ve used the Meaningful Beauty Melon Gel in the past, and while I liked it, Cetaphil’s version is just as moisturizing, but without the higher price tag. The formula feels lightweight and absorbs quickly, leaving my skin feeling hydrated without any greasy residue. My face looks brighter, and I’ve noticed a subtle improvement in the firmness of my skin after using it consistently for a few weeks.The scent is light and refreshing—not overpowering like some other gels I’ve tried. Plus, it’s gentle on my sensitive skin, which is a huge plus! I also love that Cetaphil is known for being dermatologist-recommended and for creating products that are safe for all skin types.Pros:• Lightweight and absorbs quickly.• Hydrates and firms skin without being greasy.• Gentle on sensitive skin.• Great value for the price.If you’re looking for a budget-friendly, gentle anti-aging gel that delivers results, the Cetaphil Healthy Renew Anti-Aging Face Gel is a fantastic choice. It compares favorably to the Meaningful Beauty Melon Gel but at a fraction of the cost, and it’s perfect for busy moms who want to keep their skincare routine simple and effective! Highly recommend!

I saw the ad online, I trust this brand, so I placed the order. After using it, my face gets much softer. And the skin around my nose is quite sensitive, after using this, I can feel, the skin gets healthier and healthier, not hurts anymore.

This is generally speaking a good product, but I think it is unethical to advertize a product as containing peptides when there are no isolated peptides included in the formula. They seem to be referring to the several plant extracts in the formula that may contain peptides. This is certainly NOT a retinol alternative and the benefits you may see from whatever peptides are in this product are minimal at best. I think this product is decently hydrating and moisturizing, but simply because of the added humectants like panthenol, not peptides. I enjoy Cetaphil as a brand and I think this product is good, but the marketing is very questionable. You can find better barrier repairing serums that contain peptides for less money from brands like Purito, Pyunkang Yul, and Skin1004.

After multiple recommendations I finally gave in and tried it. I absolutely love this serum. It’s an instant moisture boost and makes my skin feel amazing immediately after application. Would highly recommend for anyone looking to step up their skincare routine! Great product for a great price
