Supramolecular Retinol Serum for Face, Night Anti Aging Face Serum, 20% Hexapeptide-1 Solution, Reduce Wrinkles, Fine Lines, Hydrate, Firm and Plump Skin Care Products for Women Gift 1oz

The product really improved my skin condition! I have a sensitive and dry skin. Usually, my skin is really picky about the product. I have tried many different serum. This one works best!

So, in the year 1513, Ponce de Leon came to Florida in search of the fountain of youth. He was willing to trudge through mosquito-infested swamps to find a miracle cure for youth. He was unsuccessful.Fast forward, and 500 years later we are still looking for some kind of miracle that prevents aging. I got a sample of this Proya "Supramolecular" retinol serum for my wife who dutifully tries to fool people into thinking she is NOT approaching her 60th year on our planet. She kicked her current retinol cream to the curb and agreed to try this. After all SUPRAMOLECULAR retinol must be the "superman" to the normal "clark kent" retinol......I delayed reviewing this product for a few weeks to wait for her verdict.Her verdict is that this is first and foremost a fantastic moisturizer. It is not greasy and does not irritate her sensitive skin. I worried that other reviewers mentioned a "rose" scent - thankfully, this is not the case, the moisturizer is completely scent-free. Score one for Proya! But does it reduce wrinkles?The answer is ... kinda. It does slightly plump the skin. So, if your skin gets softer through moisturization and then plumps up a bit, it takes small wrinkes and makes them flatter for a while.But what about the 20% Hexapeptide? That sounds science-y enough to make you hope that it will actually make wrinkles disappear. If you Google it, Acetyl hexapeptide 8 and Pentapeptides do seem to have a well-cocumented ability to plump the skin. Pyoya has managed to figure out how to get a bunch of it into this product without causing it to burn or feel unpleasant. Score another one for Proya!But, can Ponce de Leon give up the search for youth? No. This does not make my 60-yr old wife look like an 18-yr old supermodel. It also seems to have no impact on deeper wrinkles. In short, it is not a miracle cure. It is a good moisturizer that can smooth out tiny wrinkles. And maybe that is enough to expect. If you go into this purchase only hoping for a good non-irritating skin cream that makes you feel slightly better about your appearance, then you will be happy with it.BTW, the packaging is beautiful. The photos that the company shows for the smoothing effect seem about right - they CAN improve those almost undetectable wrinkles you can only see with extreme close-ups. As far as "Supramolecular" retinol - that just means the structure is made of several molecules. By that definition, so is "Tang - the breakfast of the astronauts" but that doesn't mean I should rub it on my face. I love the marketing techno-babble though! Score another point for Proya for at least providing mostly honest information that turns into compelling marketing!Final grad: B+

I have advanced from using the PROYA serum once every other day to using it twice a day--morning and evening. The serum comes in a pretty bottle with a pump dispenser. One pump of the serum is enough to cover my face and neck. The serum is the consistency of a hand lotion. It is not greasy and rubs into the skin very well. I usually just rub it in with my finger tips but it would also be good to use a quartz roller afterward or even a derma roller. I do use morning and night moisturizers afterward. I apply makeup afterward without any issue.I have noticed an improvement in my skin since I've been using the serum for a month. It is subtle, but my skin feels more moisturized and plump and the small lines around my eyes are less noticeable. I will continue to use the serum.

I used it every nite and saw no improvement sorry.

This doesn't seem to be having any real impact so far for her. It does absorb well, doesn't leave behind any greasy feeling or anything. Things seem pretty standard though compared to her normal moisturizer, so she's not sure it's worth the premium. If she sees any real improvement over time as she finishes off the bottle we can update this, but she isn't expecting much from it.

I was a tad worried when I first started using this PROYA Supramolecular Retinol Serum for Face about two months ago because the instructions state the following: “For first time users, you are advised to start with a small amount and use it every other day. Once the skin tolerance is built, you can use it every day with a normal amount.” I have never seen such type of warning on a skin care product, so I was not sure what to expect. Luckily, I didn’t experience any adverse reactions. This seems to be a light moisturizer. I only need a couple of small pumps of this serum to cover my face and neck. It spreads very easily. I also appreciate that it is unscented. As this is a nighttime product, I don’t want to have to smell it while trying to fall asleep. I haven’t really noticed a difference in firmness of my skin or in wrinkles; however, after doing some research on this kind of product, I found out that it usually takes three to six months of regular use before you can see a difference. I like this product because it is so hydrating and hope it will delay the formation of wrinkles. The bottle is absolutely beautiful and it would be a very giftable product based on this. However, giving somebody a firming essence may send the wrong message.

I love the packaging on this PROYA Supramolecular Retinol Serum. It really is so pretty and looks nice on my vanity. It is easy to use and a noticeable weight to the bottle.Serums are skin care products that are designed to deliver high concentrations of specific active ingredients to the skin. Most often, serums are clear, gel-based or liquid, and they tend to be less thick than a moisturizer. They’re typically applied before moisturizers to help lock in moisture. This is definitely not an oily base serum, but more of a cream base. It absorbs quickly and could be applied in the morning or evening without fear of a shine or residue.There is no noticeable smell and was very gentle on my sensitive skin. The hydration properties are wonderful. I use this while micro needling and have great results. I experienced noticeable results after a few uses and my skin had a healthy glow in the morning. The price is not terrible for such a quality product at the current price of $47.75 an ounce (it is a one-ounce container). A little does go a long way.I will be buying again to maintain results.
