SimplyVital Collagen, Retinol & Hyaluronic Acid Cream - Anti-Aging Face Moisturizer for Face, Firming Skin Care Neck & Décolleté - Made in USA, Daily Moisturizer Face Cream Day & Night - 1.7 fl.oz.ClimatePartner certified

I’ve been using this collagen and retinol face cream for a little over a month now, and honestly, I wasn’t expecting much at first. I’ve tried a bunch of anti-aging products over the years, and most either irritate my skin or don’t do anything noticeable. But this one has actually made a difference.Right off the bat, I noticed my skin felt smoother in the mornings. After about two weeks, some of the fine lines around my eyes and mouth started to look a little softer—not gone, but definitely less noticeable. My skin also feels a bit firmer, and I swear there’s a bit more of a glow now.That said, the retinol did make my skin a little dry and flaky at first (totally normal with retinol), so I started using it every other night instead of daily. I also made sure to use a good moisturizer on top and sunscreen during the day (super important when you’re using retinol).The cream itself is lightweight and absorbs quickly. It has a faint scent—nothing overpowering—and it didn’t break me out, which is always a win in my book.One thing to note: I’m not sure how much the collagen is really doing, since I’ve read that it might not absorb deeply into the skin. But as a whole, the formula seems to work well for hydration and general skin texture.Bottom line: If you’re looking for a solid anti-aging cream and don’t mind easing into retinol slowly, this one is worth trying. Just don’t expect overnight miracles—it takes some time, but the results are legit.

I started using this moisturizer a little over a month ago and it works great! My skin does tend to be sensitive so I started with a small amount then gradually increased but I never did have any issues other a very slight tingling after first applying but did not burn or hurt at all. I apply it once a daily before bed and my skin looks and feels great when I wake up! One pump goes pretty far and is usually enough for my face and neck. Sometimes I do get a a slight pump more. It absorbs quickly and does not leave behind any greasy residue. The product was on sale and had a coupon when I purchased it so I ordered the larger size. Due to the container, I am not able to see how much is left but it still feels pretty full after more than a month so it is a great value for the price. I am going to continue using this for a night cream (I just use a collagen cream in the mornings) and will order again when needed. I highly recommend this product, especially if you find it on sale, you wont be disappointed!

I have only been using for a few weeks. I started with a small spot on my lower jaw for a few days to test the cream. Nothing happened, no sting or burn or redness. So I now apply each morning all over on my clean face. I like the pump so far, not having any issues with it. The cream soaks in quick and no grease. Love that. My skin does seem smoother, but too early to notice less lines on my over 60 aged skin. I read several positive reviews before buying this product, so I am hopeful it can diminish some of my fine lines! The 4 star is because I have not used long enough to know the entire effect of the cream, but love that the retinol did not bother my sensitive face skin.

I’ve been using this SimplyVital facial lotion for several weeks and really like how light it feels on my skin. It absorbs quickly and keeps my face hydrated all night without feeling greasy. The combination of collagen, retinol, and hyaluronic acid seems to brighten my complexion and smooth fine lines. This has definitely been noticeable. Great quality for the price and I’ll definitely repurchase!

BACKGROUND: I do not have sensitive skin, never used a retinol product before. Started the product twice a day and by day 3 I got a NASTY burn as shown in the images below with swelling in both of my eyes that got CONSIDERABLY worse. I stopped using the product and everything got better. The seller, upon seeing by negative review (despite saying I'd try it again later once my symptoms went down), in good faith offered to give me a refund. I did not accept the refund because it didn't feel right to try to use the product again AND take their money. I decided before I did that, I would give it one more try.RESEARCH: So, during the heck-ish evening where I constantly put aloe on my face due to the terrible burning sensation, I realized--from watching some dermatology videos--that YOU CANNOT GO 0-100 WITH RETINOL CREMES! I have seen some social media influencer videos sprinkled in there, where the horrendous burning is described as "normal" and "natural"... it is not. You shouldn't be feeling like that: peeling off whole layers of skin and lighting your face up like a Christmas tree. You have to start slow.THE PRODUCT: The bottle says morning and night in the instructions, I believe it says that for someone who is already using retinol cremes. If you are NOT already using it, do not follow these instructions. It is probably best to consult a dermatologist.AFTERMATH: I, personally, decided to use it once every other day at the start and build my tolerance, and that has been the magic ticket. I have been able to use the product and get some benefits without any negative side effects. My skin looks good. I feel good.MY OPINIONS ON THE PRODUCT TODAY: This is a great price for this product, even when it's not on sale. Retinol creme is incredibly expensive by other brands, and to have all these good things in one is great. It is true what you see in other reviews that the volume is small, but it is VERY clear in the description of the product that this is 1.7 fl oz. That is not a lot of product. That being said, you literally ONLY need one pump to do your face and neck, and using more than one pump, as it says on the bottle, could absolutely cause the disco inferno on your face. The product smells good and feels good. I occasionally have burning if I use products that have hyaluronic acid in it as well (for example, Grace & Stella Eye patches), but that is operator error.CLOSING: I appreciate the good faith of the seller, but now can appreciate the product, too, now that I have understood the error of my ways.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I've used this for about 2 years...It's wonderful product, it softens and hydrates your skin. Deep wrinkles seem to disappear over time.
