With Body Merry's Pro-A Serum, you can now enjoy the maximum potency of 2.5% Retinol without any of its pitfalls!
- Highly effective in diminishing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
- Evens out your skin tone and texture for a brighter and clearer complexion
- Visibly reduces the appearance of pigmentation, blemishes and other spots
- Helps with unclogging pores, reducing acne marks and in minimizing breakouts While Retinol is unique and brilliant on its own, our Pro-A Serum's teamwork of the right ingredients makes it truly shine:
- The wildness of Retinol is tamed by Plant Derived Hyaluronic Acid, which locks in moisture to effectively minimize dryness or irritation
- Because of their high antioxidant content, Green Tea and Vitamin E work beautifully together to prevent the signs of aging
- The end result is that this serum is a gentle formula that is suitable for all skin types and safe for everyday use.

 Directions:

Clean and dry your skin. When using a toner, apply the toner prior to the serum. Use your fingertips to apply a small amount of the serum on your face and neck. Once it is completely absorbed, follow with a moisturizer. Can be used daily and under makeup. Apply sunscreen if stepping out in the sun. If you are a first time retinol user, apply once every other night till your skin is ready to use it daily.

For superior anti-aging benefits, use in conjunction with our Hyaluronic Dew Serum. Use the Hyaluronic Dew Serum in the morning and finish your skincare routine with the Pro-A Serum at night.

For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes. If skin sensitivity occurs, stop use and consult your doctor. Keep out of reach of children and animals.

My Review:
This serum is a bit on the thick side but it does absorb well and dries quickly. After the usual preliminary flakiness/peeling that I get from anything with retinol my skin began to show improvement at the 3rd week mark. I noticed that the size of my pores have shrunk dramatically and some of my dark spots are getting a little lighter. It isn't drying generally, but I'd definitely apply a moisturizer once it soaks in.
