Why consumers buy
Reputation as a gentle, beginner-friendly retinol
Many reviewers explicitly bought it because it is known as a mild retinol suitable for first-time users or sensitive skin, often after reading reviews warning that other retinols are too harsh.
Repeat/loyalty purchase
A large number of reviews mention this being their 2nd, 3rd, 4th or even 6th bottle, indicating strong repurchase intent once the formula is tried.
Word-of-mouth and family/friend gifting
Several buyers purchased it for parents, siblings, daughters or friends based on personal recommendation, suggesting trust extends beyond the original buyer.
Brand/ingredient reputation and social visibility
Reviewers reference seeing the product on YouTube, its popularity in markets like Vietnam, and general trust in the Some By Mi brand and its ingredient profile.
Promotions/price value
Some purchases were driven by sales or perceived good pricing, with reviewers stocking up multiple bottles when discounted.
How they use it
Nighttime routine step
The vast majority of reviewers use it exclusively at night, often as the last step before sleep, avoiding daytime/sun exposure concerns typical of retinol.
Skin concerns raised — and how the product addressed them
✓Most reviewers with sensitive skin report no irritation and call it the gentlest retinol they've used, though a small minority experienced peeling or stinging, especially with overuse.
✓Multiple long-term users report visibly reduced smile lines, forehead lines and improved elasticity after 4-8+ weeks of consistent nightly use.
✓Reviewers with acne-prone skin describe fewer breakouts, faded post-acne marks, and clearer skin, including cases used successfully by family members with scarring.
Points to note
Sentiment breakdown
Share of analyzed reviews by overall sentiment.
Gradual frequency build-up
Many reviewers, especially beginners, start with 1-2 times per week and slowly increase to every other night or nightly as their skin builds tolerance.
Small dosage application
Users commonly note that only 'two dots' or a pea-sized amount is needed per application, applying it to the full face and sometimes the neck.
Layering with other retinol/skincare products
Some reviewers layer it with thicker retinol creams, eye serums, or use it as part of a matching mask-and-cream set from the same line.
Long-term, continuous use for cumulative results
Reviewers frequently mention needing several weeks to months of consistent nightly or near-nightly use before seeing visible changes in texture, fine lines or acne marks.
✓Users report visibly smaller-looking pores and smoother, more refined skin texture within days to weeks of use.
✓Reviewers note the serum is moisturizing rather than drying compared to other retinols, leaving skin soft, plump and brighter the morning after use.
