I am77 and have been using prescription Retin-A on my face since my late 30's. It peeled and looked awful for 5 to 6 months until my skin got used to it. Then my skin looked like new soft and smooth skin. Over my nightly Retin-A I have been using Paula's Choice products. I have an allergy to salicylic acid so I can't use her best product, her BHA serum, or anything else that contains salicylic aci joeybayou · paulaschoice.com

My skin has been LOVING this serum. After the first time using I noticed it absorb right into my skin without leaving any greasy or sticky feeling, just a beautiful hydrated plumpness and with more radiance. The texture is so dreamy and feels like heaven on the skin. I’ve been using this for about a week now and noticed a huge improvement to my dry patches around my nose.
