I like this retinol product because it doesn't irritate my sensitive skin. I love the way my skin feels after using the serum, and I've even been told by others that my skin looks good. A staple in my daily skincare routine !
If I could keep only of my anti-aging serums, it would be this one. There’s absolutely nothing about this product that I do not like! It has a very light, sweet scent, absorbs very quickly, spreads easily and gives good results :)
I've used a lot of retinol products and this one is definitely my favorite. Wish is was a bigger size but that would be my only complaint. Highly recommend.
I don’t get the complaints about this serum “not working.” It’s plant-based, meaning it takes a little longer to see results—but that’s because it’s gentle and doesn’t wreck your skin like synthetic retinol. Be patient, it’s worth it.
Also, Earth Harbor isn’t skimping on actives. Most brands don’t even disclose how much retinol alternative they use, but this one is packed with high-quality ingredients.
Oh, and the pump issue? I had the problem but it was just one batch, and they already fixed it. They make everything in small batches, so they actually care when something’s off. Love this serum and this brand!
I’m still trying this out and integrating it into my skin care routine. I like that Anchor is a light weight formula and is nice on my skin with no irritation. What I don’t like is the bad pump. It sticks and literally just spits out the product instead of gently pumping it out. I have to remove the pump and dip a silicon beauty spoon from Amazon to get the product out. Plus the stem of the pump is way too short and doesn’t reach the bottom like the other serums. They have a curved end so it gets all the product. Another thing I’m not crazy about is that the size is only .67 oz, instead of 1 oz like all of the other serums and costs just about the same. It disappointed me when this was first dropped, that it was a smaller bottle.
