Drunk Elephant A-Passioni Retinol Cream

Beauty Bag Dolls the review I am about to bring to you is truly a personal one because it involves Retinol. Now if your like me with sensitive, acne prone skin that tends to be oily to dry depending on its mood you hesitate when it comes to retinol. Although I know I need it, it has always scared me because in the past if has hurt my skin instead of helping it. That being said please put all of your worries and common misconceptions behind you because Drunk Elephant A-Passioni Retinol Cream has broken through all of my stereotypes. Drunk Elephant describes A-Passioni Retinol Cream as "Retinol reimagined. A-Passioni Retinol Cream is a clean, cutting-edge formula that combines 1.0% vegan retinol with nourishing, superfood-rich ingredients to dramatically diminish the appearance of fine lines, deep wrinkles and sun damage revealing a vibrant, younger-looking complexion." To learn more about what this Drunk Elephant A-Passioni Retinol Cream does for me read on.
This is the absolute must have for anyone who wants Retinol in their skincare routine but has sensitive skin. The Drunk Elephant A-Passioni Retinol Cream works on my sensitive skin and I am so happy! My spring skincare reboot is in full swing!

When I reach for the Drunk Elephant A-Passioni Retinol Cream I take a look in a mirror and of course I use the retinol in strategic areas. For me I like to use it on my forehead to smooth the fine lines, on some dark spots and acne scars on my face as well as the pesky laugh lines. Now the Drunk Elephant A-Passioni Retinol Cream is to be used one or two times a week AM or PM gradually increasing your frequency to every other night and then every night as your skin tolerates it. I personally use this twice a week for 2 weeks and then I use it about 4 days a week there after. The recommendation from Drunk Elephant is to use a pea-size amount or less to clean dry skin which is what I did. You can also mix it with your favorite Drunk Elephant Cream or Oil I used it the B-Hydra Intensive Hydration Serum included in the box of A-Passioni Retinol Cream and some of their Protini Polypeptide Cream. After the first application I was thrilled not to have any irritoation or redness at all (that was a first for me with Retinol) Then I used it a second time that week and had no issues. After my third application I woke up in the morning and just noticed my skin was a little dry after the 4th application dry and flakey so I used a thicker moisturizer and did not have an issue. I did continue to increase the use of the A-Passioni Retinal Cream to about 4 days a week and I had great results. My forehead fine lines had truly diminished and my acne scars were faded which meant I didn't have to use as much concealer. I can finally say that I LOVE a retinol cream and its all thanks to Drunk Elephant A-Passioni Retinol Cream! This is apart of my Spring Skincare Reboot! This is a beauty bag must that gets 5 $$$$$ and EXTRA LOVE FROM ANNA!

I think they do make it in a travel size and you can pick it up in their Get Even kit they offer. The travel size are actually very large and deluxe, I love them! ~Anna
