I’ve been a big fan of retinol for about five years but wasn’t necessarily crazy about some of the side effects that came with it, like tight, dry skin and constantly worrying about getting a sunburn. When I got pregnant in early 2019, I was forced to part ways with my retinol, as it’s not recommended for pregnant women.
While I was bummed out at the prospect of no longer using a product that promised to keep my skin glowy and prevent wrinkles, the fact that pregnant women aren’t supposed to use retinol felt like a bit of a red flag. Should I be using it in my normal life if it was so dangerous for pregnant women? Once my daughter was born and I was breastfeeding, retinol wasn’t an option either—so I just kind of forgot about it.
But when I came across Kiehl’s Powerful-Strength Line-Reducing Concentrate, which contains high amounts of vitamin C along with hyaluronic acid, I was curious to see if this product could get the job done as easily as retinol.
Here’s how it panned out.
