Retinol is a fat-soluble vitamin known for its powerful antioxidant properties. It aids in smoothing out wrinkles and enhancing skin elasticity, combats hyperpigmentation and acne, normalizes the activity of sebaceous glands, and maintains a healthy moisture balance. Tocopherol, another natural antioxidant, can protect epidermal cells from the harsh effects of environmental factors. Based on these two components, specialists at the cosmetic brand pHarmika have developed a face cream that provides proper care for the skin, helping to maintain its youth and beauty for a long time.

I have been using this product for several years and I really like it. I apply it at night and in the morning my face feels soft and velvety. There was a period when I didn't use it because I didn't have access to the cream, but as soon as I was able to, I bought it immediately and the velvety feeling of my skin returned.
During my last purchase here on Make up, I noticed that the cream was liquid. Before that, I always bought it from the official website and the consistency was thick.
I bought this product to try it out. The tube is large and the scent (that everyone is talking about) is completely normal to me, even pleasant. I use it on my entire body. I have noticed great improvements. It has helped with the regeneration and healing of acne on my back and thighs. I also use it on my face at night and it has a good effect as well. I am satisfied.
I bought this cream to "get acquainted," so to speak, with retinol. I have hypersensitive skin with acne (early stage of rosacea), so I was afraid that the cream would somehow aggressively react due to the presence of retinol in its composition. However, I suspect that the percentage of retinol in it is very minimal. My skin did not react negatively from the first application, which is already good. I use it at night, the cream is quite thick, but it absorbs quickly, and in the morning, my skin feels soft and velvety. Due to other active ingredients in my skincare routine, I often had peeling, but after using this cream, my skin feels nourished and moisturized.
The downsides are:
1. The smell. It has a very strong chemical scent. Although I never react strongly to scents, and for me, it is a rare occurrence to be so irritated by something. But this cream really stinks to me.
2. The fact that the manufacturer did not indicate the percentage of retinol content. This raises questions and problems when selecting other skincare products.
Other than that, the cream is great for such a price, and the amount is sufficient to use without running out. After opening, the product can be stored for 6 months, but I suspect that I will not use up the entire amount within that time. It's better to share it with a friend and use it together :-)
I have combination skin with acne and clogged pores, aged 30+. I came across this cream through a blogger. There is a lot of product, enough for all my friends. It has a pleasant and subtle scent, and a delicate cream color. It doesn't make the skin greasy or cause flakiness, it speeds up the healing of pimples, evens out the skin tone, and makes it firm and well-groomed. It has a very nice effect. I currently use it at night and sometimes during the day. It is one of the best creams I have ever used. For example, the well-known Dr.Jart+ didn't impress me and it is more expensive. It's all very individual. But my friend liked this cream. I recommend it.
I didn't fully understand this cream. Judging from the ingredients, I couldn't expect it to provide nourishment - retinols tend to have a slightly drying effect. Therefore, to achieve a comfortable feeling, I used it in combination with a moisturizing serum. The skin feels velvety to the touch after applying the cream, but I didn't notice any significant effects. Due to the beginning of the active sun season, I am temporarily suspending its use.
For me, the cream turned out to be a bit weak for mature skin, 55+. I would like to apply a moisturizing cream after it. It will be suitable for the neck and décolleté area. The scent is also a bit strong, it's a matter of personal preference.
