Tatcha The Silk Serum Wrinkle-Smoothing Retinol Alternative | 30 ml / 1 oz

I love Tatcha, but not a big fan of this serum. Didn't notice a difference in wrinkles or smoothness.UPDATE: So I was using this up and realized the wrinkles around my eyes were better! So I was wrong, this does work.

I love Tatcha products and have used several of them for many years. Tried the silk serum a few months ago and love it. Within a few days, I noticed my skin feeling and looking plumper and diminished fine lines. Within a week, my eyelids were not as droopy. I'm a huge fan!

I purchased this as a retinol alternative when I was pregnant. It smells and feels great and reduces appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

So far, so good. I have ultra sensitive skin, and can’t use retinol, much less the prescription strength stuff. So far, no redness, sensitivity or breakouts. I’m finding that retinol alternatives are sometimes pricey…like this one. I have found that sensitive skin products are worth a little extra …for people like me they really make the difference. As far as long term results, I. Going to update when this bottle is gone. I’m 51 so fine lines/wrinkles, and discoloration are what I hoping to improve with this. As with all Tatcha products, the packaging is very high end. It has a spa-like, medicinal type smell…I’m extremely sensitive to smell/fragrance, but this has caused me zero issues…and it dissipates as skin as it’s absorbed. It comes out looking like a white lotion, but immediately becomes clear and silky as soon as you apply to skin. Feels great…refreshing and cushioning. Fingers crossed 🤞🏻 for good results.

Spent a lot of money on cheaper stuff, this works and doesn't irritate my skin.

There was another review I didn't see until after I had already bought this that says what I'm going to say too: it worked at first, and then I got breakouts. I read elsewhere that you can still get "purging" from this just like with retinols, but I am pretty sure that my breakouts are not purges. I have had limited success with retinols and bakuchiol, so I was hopeful for this, but another dud (an expensive one too!)Advice: DON'T THROW OUT YOUR PACKAGING, keep until until the end of your Amazon return window. That way, you can still return it if you have a delayed reaction like mine. Unfortunately, because it initially worked, I threw out the box. That's $98 wasted.

Tatcha cosmetics have always been my favorite brand. This silk serum is a great addition to my after cleansing routine. My skin feels & looks amazing.

Smooth on the skin. Fine lines faded.
