Description
What It Is: Gentle enough for sensitive skin and first-time retinol users, this serum delivers the tone and texture-reforming benefits of retinol without the "uglies": redness, dryness, or peeling.
For: Fine lines + Firmness
What It Solves: This serum uses a gentler form of retinol, so you won't overdo it—even on sensitive skin. Our gel-cream formula contains encapsulated retinol, which penetrates the top layers of the skin's surface to avoid irritation. Natural retinol alternatives arophira and bakuchiol also add to this gentle yet effective nightly treatment.
How to use: Smooth 2 pumps into clean, damp skin. Let it sink in for one minute before your next skincare step. Apply on face and neck (avoiding eye area) every PM after cleansing. Use alone or between lighter serums and moisturizer.
Good to know: Retinol is one of the most dermatologist-recommended ingredients. In encapsulated form, it doesn’t sit on the skin’s surface, avoiding the irritation other forms of retinol are known for.

I purchased this product two days ago and I might be crazy but I promise I noticed an immediate difference in my skins texture and brightness within 20 minutes. I’m one who is very analytical of facial wrinkles and marks and I noticed such a difference after using it. My skin feels tighter, my wrinkles are less prevalent, my skin feels very clean, and the redness in my face decreased. Will definitely be purchasing the whole line...
Nice!

Well, I haven’t had this very long but so far so good. I’m loving all of these products and plan on giving them a good try. I’ve purchased about five different products so far and I like. Definitely will continue to purchase.

I got my first bottle of PRESS RESTART in my Fab Fit Fun box. I am now out of it and here I am ordering more on the Versed website! Feels great going on and I noticed the difference within a few weeks . I have tried other retinol serums but they were too harsh for my skin! ❤️
Good product!

So far I'm liking this product, it's silky and absorbs quickly. I don't love the packaging though, I was a bit disappointed that it feels so cheap to me. It's plastic and lint and hair stick to it easily, and there's condensation inside the lid no matter how many times I wipe it dry. I'd prefer if it were in a glass dropper. But the product itself seems good so far, non-irritating and I like the ingredients, and the price was good.

I am getting a little redness. I am following the directions. It has only been a couple of weeks. Hopefully this will subside.
Definitely worth it

Will leave your skin smoother and softer feeling. A little drying, but not bad.

I've tried a couple retinol serums and have been loving this one. I noticed my skin is smoother and brighter after just a couple weeks. It's not aggressive, so I have had no irritation or dryness. I use it every other day. Plus it doesn't break the bank!
It works! But too harsh on my face

I have sensitive rosacea prone skin and have been looking for a retinol product my skin can handle. I used this once per week for 3 weeks, gently washing and then moisturizing my face before applying 1 drop of this. Better skin texture but tomato faced for two days post. Will probably move to every other week, and add moisturizer to the PressRestart as well as applying the moisturizer before.

I've used this every night and have MAYBE only noticed clean pores. Hasn't done anything else for my skin and I'm not even sure I can give credit to this product for the clean pores.
Not impressed

There’s very little substance in the container and results. Sadly, I’m very disappointed, but I do like the body cream and recommend it.

This was my first real retinol product I started using 3 months ago. I use it every night and sometimes in the morning. My skin needs it. I'm using other retinol products with this one now and with all of them my skin appears smoother, softer, brighter & stronger .
Loving this!!

I started using this about 2 weeks ago and can already see a difference with my fine lines on my forehead.
Slow, but worth it!

I’ve been using this for about 9 weeks and more recently started noticing a considerable difference. It definitely takes time, but that’s expected with bakuchiol, as it is a slower retinol alternative. While it does take longer than a regular retinol, I didn’t experience any major breakouts or reactions to it. My only critique would be the amount you get for what you pay. I’ve already gone through a few bottles in the couple of months I’ve been using it.
