I’ve written about Murad’s amazing Retinol Youth Renewal range before, and it’s still one of my top suggestions when people ask about retinol products. The range is known for its effectiveness, offering noticeable results while being gentle on most skin types. However, it’s important to introduce it gradually into your routine. This retinol really gets to work quickly, so it’s best to start slow—perhaps every four nights for a few weeks, then every three nights, and eventually every other night. This method typically prevents any dryness or irritation. Jumping in too fast can lead to discomfort.
Now, let’s focus on Murad’s Retinol Youth Renewal Eye Serum, a standout when it comes to using retinol around the eyes. This eye serum is even more carefully formulated than the rest of the range. You can safely apply it around the eyes, even on the lids, thanks to its non-greasy moisturizers that offer up to twenty-four hours of hydration. This is great news for anyone looking to maintain smooth eyelids over time.
Even with my sensitive eyes, I can use the Murad Eye Serum nightly without issues. While you might use regular face cream around the eyes, strong retinol treatments can sometimes be too intense for that delicate area. In my experience, they’re not always the best fit for the sensitive skin around the eyes, which is why I appreciate Murad’s targeted approach.
If you’re considering investing in an effective eye treatment, Murad’s Youth Renewal Eye Serum is a great choice. It’s an investment, with the eye serum priced at £72 and the night cream at £70, but the visible firming and plumping benefits justify the cost. Murad uses a three-pronged delivery system, combining fast-acting retinoids with a slower-releasing retinol and a preparatory ingredient for the skin, making it a sophisticated formula. It’s powerful enough to improve existing lines and wrinkles and also works well as a preventive measure.
