RoC Retin Ox+ Day Intensive Anti Wrinkle Moisturiser

Retin OX Serum

Advantages: Light, easily absorbed serum
Disadvantages: You smell like a stale and, ever so slightly rancid, coffee machine after use.

Big heading If you can get past the smell... Small heading The details I needed to replace my high street brand of serum [No 7] and have used ROC products in the past - to good effect. I saw the Retin OX serum advertised and tried it. The serum was light and had a good texture but, on first opening, it also had a very strange smell. I thought that might go away with wear - and so tried it. I'm afraid the smell stayed. The scent was of oddly stale coffee. I tried it three times - and on the last two times - washed it off. Thus rather missing the point of using a serum... So awful was the scent, that I sent back the product to the manufacturers in case something had happened in the manufacture. I wait to hear. No matter how effective a product is, if you can't abide the smell - then it is useless. Sad because ...

Review of RoC Retin-Ox Serum

Still a RoC Fan

Advantages: It really works
Disadvantages: Not within everyones price range

The important thing about RoC Retin-Ox Correctiom (in fact, all RoC products) is perseverence. No one should reasonably expect instant results, but we do unfortunately live in a society where instant gratification is not soon enough. I have been using this particular RoC product, along with the rest of the face care range, for over 5 years and I will never consider using another product. It took about 3 months before I began to notice some improvements and it has without doubt not only slowed down the wrinkly process that is inevitable with age, it has improved my skin. My sister lives in Australia and I see her once a year. On her last visit she was convinced I had had a face lift since last seeing her (she is unable to buy Roc in Oz so I post it to her). I find that the cream is easily absorbed and very economical, I can ...

Review of RoC Retin-Ox Multi-Correxion Eyes

Ignore the hype - RoC does not keep its promises

Advantages: none
Disadvantages: de-hydrates, burns skin and smells foul

Having seen the hyped up ad on the t.v. about the new wonder skin care range from RoC that promises to make you look ten years younger and wrinkle free I decided to investigate further - there's always one isn't there? Boots had a great deal on - buy two get one free on a whole range of products including the Retin-OX Correxion products which made me think I was getting something of a bargain hence I ended up with three tubes of the cream, night, day and an extra day one for luck. My first reaction to using the day cream was that it took a long time for the cream to sink in. The night cream smelled like urine on first sniff and didn't blend at all well. After a couple of days I noticed some red raised rashes on my face and I must have accidently got some of the cream around the eye area as they were very puffy and red and I look ...
