Eye Protection
Can this be used on the eyes? If not, is there a good sunscreen that can be used on the eyes? Then beauty of joseif's eye cream that I use has retinal in it.Translated from swedish

Vitamin C?
The ingredients don't look the same as you've listed compared to what their website says? It should have some soothing properties like bamboo, and it also mentions that it contains vitamin C, so my question is: can it be used together with retinal serum?Translated from swedish

C vitamin serum with a kick
Yes, this serum is not something you want to use on a hungover morning when you already feel bad enough as it is. The smell disappears at least very quickly, so I just breathe through my mouth when I apply it, then the smell is basically gone when I'm done applying. Furthermore, it feels like it has a lot of kick to it, so I think it definitely does its job :) I already feel like my skin has more glow (after 3 days of use), maybe not recommended for more sensitive skin types.Translated from swedish

Very good but too quick on my skin
Good formula that quickly absorbs into the skin, a bit too quickly on my skin, they say to use a small pea-sized amount for the whole face, but I can't spread it out more than on, for example, half my forehead before it sinks into the skin 😅 so for my skin, it takes quite a bit of product to get it everywhere, so it might get a bit too expensive in the long run, otherwise a good product that does what it’s supposed to with decent strength and feels better with retinal for my acne-prone skin, unfortunately a small selection of retinal products at a good price point, but I will try Geeks & gorgeous A-game retinal and see if it’s easier to spreadTranslated from swedish

One of the few retinoid products that feels light on the skin BUT I do think that it almost always (applies to all kinds of serums from various brands) takes more than the recommended amount in all descriptions... I use a-game 20 anyway and it feels significantly more powerful than this one from TO, even though both are 0.2%. But 20 is the strongest and it comes in 2 more variants. GG also helps significantly better against acne, at least my skin thinks so 😀

Good product but skeptical about the alcohol
Since this contains Cetearyl Alcohol, which my skin tends to break out from, I've noticed lately after using this & Cerave Pm moisturizer that also contains it (comes from coconut, I understood, my skin doesn't like that) but I thought about switching to the retinol variants since I saw they don't contain it. I've been using this for maybe 1 month now, gradually increasing, my skin handles it fine except for breakouts, but it could have been Cerave Pm as well or both, but can I start with Ordinary retinol 0.5% & gradually increase on that or do I have to start with 0.2% which feels a bit like a step back from what I've been using now?Translated from swedish
