SHOPPERS' STRETCH MARKS HAVE ‘NOTICEABLY FADED’ THANKS TO THIS $23 RETINOL BODY LOTION
Shape editors named this 20-percent-off formula one of the best retinol body lotions.
Buying skincare regularly can be an expensive habit, especially if you’re dealing with a combination of skin problems. That’s why I like to invest in skincare with powerhouse ingredients that do it all. Retinol is one of those ingredients — it’s an absolute must in any routine. It tackles a handful of concerns that ultimately leave your skin smooth and glowing.
Luckily, it’s not just your face that can benefit from the potent ingredient. Body lotions infused with retinol are next on my list, starting with Paula’s Choice Retinol Skin-Smoothing Body Lotion that’s as low as $23 right now. The brand is offering 20 percent off sitewide, along with 25 percent off orders starting at $95.
$23
The Retinol Skin-Smoothing Body Lotion aims to take care of concerns such as uneven tone, dullness, as well as loose and wrinkled skin. It’s formulated with a 0.1 percent retinol concentration, which is the brand’s middle-tier strength, to smooth and firm the skin. Best of all, it’s still just as deeply hydrating as your daily lotion. It contains ingredients like shea butter, grapeseed oil, and glycerin that work together to make this retinol soothing for even those with sensitive skin. Not to mention, your entire body will feel silky soft afterwards. Just make sure to apply sunscreen (SPF 30 or above) following if used in the day time to avoid any irritation.
Our editors rave about this on-sale lotion from Paula’s Choice, naming it the runner up for the best retinol body lotion. Although it’s a smaller size compared to others, they noted that the cream is a “dream for dry skin.” Dermatologist Marisa Garshick, M.D., F.A.A.D., previously told Shape, "it combines the retinol with different moisturizing ingredients, so it does potentially provide a soothing effect to the skin and minimize the irritation, but it's also lightweight."
Reviewers also can’t get enough of this retinol formula that improves their skin texture. “My skin is now almost flawless, no blemishes, a few blackheads, with a healthy glow and hardly noticeable wrinkles,” said a reviewer. A second shopper swears by it for their crepey, sun-damaged skin, saying that the “skin on the backs of my hands snaps right back when pulled.” While those with stretch marks have remarked that they have “noticeably faded” within weeks of consistent use.
