Estée Lauder Research brings you a patented, modern retexturizing formula: high-grade pure Retinol, blended into a stabilized delivery system to time-release its power over an extended period. This creates an optimum balance of potency and comfort for proven effects, at home.
It's a great mix for enhanced results, although we wish Lauder had been forthcoming about how much retinol you're getting like many other brands do. We suspect it's between 0.1-0.5%, a range which would definitely be effective on wrinkles, skin tone, and loss of firmness.
– the formula is impeccable, full of good skincare ingredients, almost no filler ingredients! – the very soothing effect. It's a perfect serum if you use acids and/or retinol, or if you have a very sensitive skin.
Bifida Ferment Lysate is a probiotic ingredient that's used in one of the most iconic serums in the world, the Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair. Based on manufacturer info it potently protects against UV-induced damage in the skin and helps with DNA repair.
1. SkinCeuticals Retinol 1.0 Maximum Strength Refining Night Cream. Formulated with the highest concentration of 1.0% pure retinol and botanical extracts, this cream is enhanced with the latest stabilization and delivery technologies to preserve retinol potency and ensure maximum efficacy and stability.
Overall, we think that the Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair products are formulated well with hydrating ingredients and soothing botanicals, but the formulations lack anti-aging ingredients that are proven to correct signs of aging (such as retinol, peptides, vitamin C, etc).
There is no other product that is known to repair past visible damage and help prevent future damage – so in that sense, it's formula is as unique as they come. The product also delivers a high dose of antioxidants to neutralise the free radicals that damage our skin daily.
Skin looks radiant and plumped with hydration—all the way through till morning. 72-hour hydration (includes Hyaluronic Acid). Strengthens skin barrier in just 4 hours. Oil-free texture.
Use a night serum that works while you sleep. That means anything with retinol, niacinamide, or even bakuchiol. We love the popular Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair Synchronized Recovery Complex II, Rs 9,900.
A formula with retinol, like the L'Oréal Paris Revitalift Triple Power Eye Treatment, should be applied after your serums and before moisturizer due to its consistency.
There's no denying the hydrating and restorative powers of Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair Synchronized Multi-Recovery Complex. This serum is a great option for those looking to treat skin that feels tight, dull, or dry.
FORMULA FACTS
Massage a pea-sized amount over clean, dry skin at night before moisturizer. Avoid eye area. Use sunscreen and limit sun exposure while using and the week after. Limit initial use to every other night for the first two weeks, and then gradually increase to nightly usage.
It doesn't contain retinol, and it isn't going to get rid of any deep-set wrinkles.
I only take two-three drops and my entire face gets covered. This way a single bottle will last you for good 5-6 months even on daily usage. The oil being extremely light gets instantly absorbed on your skin.
Since it is not an “active” serum in the sense that it contains AHA/BHA, retinol or Vitamin C, I do not think that it's fair to expect this serum to have super drastic effects on your skin.
SkinSAFE has reviewed the ingredients of Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair Synchronized Recovery Complex II, 1.0 oz and found it to be 91% Top Allergen Free and free of Gluten, Coconut, Nickel, Top Common Allergy Causing Preservatives, Lanolin, Paraben, Topical Antibiotic, MCI/MI, and Soy.
Can you use retinol with A/BHA's? Yes because AHA/BHA's work at the top and Retinol works from the bottom skin layer, you just have to be really careful and ease your skin into getting used to the application of both. Use them together once a week, and every other day just use one or the other!
Two of the most common products used to keep skin in excellent condition are hyaluronic acid and retinol. What should a person use between hyaluronic acid or retinol? Hyaluronic acid is best if they're looking to moisturize dry skin, while retinol works better by encouraging better skin by boosting collagen production.
Gohara suggests starting with the gentlest of retinoids, like retinyl palmitate (for sensitive or dry skin) or retinol (for all other skin types), moving up to a higher strength formula only after a year.
Prescription retinoids are stronger and may be more effective than their OTC counterparts at reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. This means they're also more likely to cause side effects.
