This Bio-Retinol Cream That Improved My Fine Lines Is Back in Stock After Selling Out in Just 1 Week

As a 32-year-old, I'm at that awkward age where my skin doesn't require formulas suited to mature skin types, but I also want to follow as many preventive measures as possible. I consider my skin to be in great condition, but I'm still marred with fine lines on my forehead and around my eyes, as well as deep smile lines that I've had since my early 20s. I've tried countless retinol products, hoping to achieve noticeable results. Still, I could never commit because the robust active has always wreaked havoc on my complexion, creating a painful trail of flaky skin wherever it went.

I'd given up on anything retinol-related until I recently tried InnBeauty Project's Extreme Cream Moisturizer, a rich cream that diminished signs of aging without irritating my skin. The brand gave me a free sample of the cream to test two months ago, and I've already ordered my first refill. The moisturizer is enriched with bio-retinol, a plant-based alternative known to boost elasticity and smooth wrinkles without the harsh side effects of its traditional retinol counterpart. It also contains healing peptides that provide a lifting and plumping effect and ceramides to strengthen and restore the skin barrier, all while leaving behind a healthy glow.

The innovative formula's reverse water-in-oil emulsion technology is key to the moisturizer's silky texture and long-lasting hydration. I use the Extreme Cream in my morning and evening routines, and I've noticed a significant improvement in my skin's condition; my fine lines quickly faded, my smile lines are much less prominent, the rough texture around my U-zone has disappeared (hello, deep hydration), and my makeup applies more evenly. I have chronically dry skin that frequently needs an extra boost of moisture in the afternoon, but when I use this cream in the morning, the hydration lasts the whole day and well into the evening.

I'm not the only one experiencing this. One  55-year-old shopper who recently ordered their third bottle raved that the moisturizer left their skin looking "so bright and even." They added that they've noticed "a difference in [their] jawline that has started to droop due to age," as well as in the "fine lines and the plumpness of [their] skin." Another middle-aged reviewer who "tried dozens of moisturizers in the past year" said this cream "blows them away." They explained they couldn't "believe how quickly it hydrates and plumps" their skin and were also impressed by how it "immediately smoothes [their] dry skin without feeling greasy."

Shop the new InnBeauty Project Extreme Cream Moisturizer for $48, or grab the refill for $40 before it sells out again. As a devotee of the InnBeauty Project, below are five other exceptional formulas I use in my skincare and makeup routines.
