A-Passioni™ Retinol Cream - Crema con Retinol

Definitely not what I expected

I expected a lot from this product honestly from the name Drunk Elephant withholds throughout the beauty community but honestly it was so-so and I’ll be returning this product because it gave my an itchy rash. after the first use which I didn’t expect.

Made skin worse

I tested it last week on a small portion of my face and didn’t have a reaction then when I applied it on Monday (1 week later) to more areas my face totally broke out. It left my skin super dry and irritated, I feel like my face has little cuts

Great Product

I recently bought this product, and so far I love it! It seems to be working at getting rid of fine lines and wrinkles. The only reason I’m not giving this five stars, is because for such an expensive product I would’ve expected it to smell better. Also, all of the people pretending to be young kids, STOP! This product is definitely not for young skin.

Don’t buy

I got this for my 10 birthday and it was as for my skin not preppy

This is the best clean retinol.

So for context, I am 47 have been using retinol for 15 years. This didn’t feel burny the way an overnight retinol can, but this line definitely works for AM if you are at a place in life where you do retinol for both! It actually made my skin feel happy- definitely turned me on to clean products!

This has done wonders for my skin, i could see my skin reacting to the retinol over time. to me, the price is justified.

Caused acne with every use

I’m in my late 40s and fighting wrinkles. This cream causes acne every time I use it. I do not use it every day. Started using 1x/wk and got acne every time. I thought maybe my skin needed to “adjust”. Nope. Unfortunately I will be returning it.

Perfect fit for my sensitive skin

I have very sensitive skin. After ruining my skin barrier with a (popular) well-known brand, I was worried to try anything new. Retinol scared me a little bit from what I've heard. I use this 3-4x a week at night now, and I love it. The morning after day 1, I saw minor but immediate improvements in my skin. It "glowed" a little more, my acne was clearing up, and I didn't have any side effects. I paired it with a sample of their hydrating moisturizer, and my skin felt great. I usually use Tatcha's Dewy moisturizer, but when I use this retinol, I switch to the Drunk Elephant hydrating moisturizer and apply after the retinol serum. I do only use it at night because of the sun sensitivity it could cause. I go about my regular Tatcha moisturizer in the mornings before applying make-up. I am impressed, and it worked for me by starting with a pea sized amount 1-2x per week to make sure I wouldn't react bad.

Just okay - please change packaging

I didn’t see much change in using this product. I enjoy the smell and consistency. I really don’t like the plastic packaging. Please please use glass or metal. I love drunk elephant but why the plastic??

Just as great as prescription strength

I have been using prescription retinols for years but this is just as amazing! Gives my face a glowy plump every morning and really smoothes out my faces. I never break out when I use this twice a week!

If you have sensitive skin do not use this.

This product gave me a severe allergy. I tested it for a night in my hand and it was fine but next day I just put it on where I see discoloration and little bit of wrinkles woke up with very itchy skin and swelling.

Will Definitely But More!

This was my first go with retinol and honestly no complaints at all! I followed the instructions; “eased” my skin into it. No redness, no irritation. Loving the results so far!
