This serum was quite runny and not sticky at all and my skin loved it! My skin pretty much inhaled the serum and looks more radiant and feels much smoother. I found it a great base for foundation giving me a glowing finish. What I didn’t like was the applicator dropper. It’s chunky and until you get used to it, fiddley to use. I almost spilt it a few times until I got the hang of it. And because it’s runny, it’s easy to use too much. Overall, I’d definitely recommend it.

Reviews
I recently tried the Dr. LeWinn’s Serum Series – Renew and I have to say, I am quite pleased with the results. This serum has a lightweight texture that absorbs quickly into the skin, leaving it feeling soft and smooth. I noticed an improvement in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles after using this serum regularly for a few weeks. The only downside is that it is a bit pricey, but I believe it's worth the investment if you're looking for an effective anti-aging serum.
The serum is a bit pricey but it’s concentrated and you only need a small amount with each application. It contains RETINOL and BEAUACTIVE® plus Vitamin E. The texture is very lightweight and it promises to target some of the most common skincare concerns, like hydration, skin cell renewal and skin radiance. I noticed an improvement in the appearance of my skin from the first application & the results just got better with time. I have been using this serum daily for over 2 weeks now and there is a clear reduction in the appearance of my fine lines. My face feels and looks more youthful, firmer and hydrated. Would definitely recommend this. - I was gifted a product sample to trial and review -
I am always a fan of a dispenser on a face product bottle, love the fact my fingers aren't dipping into the product all the time. The dropper top gives you just the right amount of product to cover your face and neck. I feel that the 30ml bottle should last me a good 3 months which is a good amount of time for a face product. The serum itself has an almost water like consistency and is very light. It does take a few minutes to absorb into my skin but once absorbed there is no tightness like I have experienced with other serums though it does need a moisturiser added after. I have found that my skin looks more hydrated since starting to use the serum and it definitely seems to have a bit more of the glow I had in my younger years. I'm looking forward to seeing what effect a further few weeks of usage will have on some of my fine lines around my eyes and mouth.
Tips: Apply then leave for a few minutes before putting moisturiser over top
I was really keen to trial this product. Firstly because I love Dr LeWinn’s skincare and secondly because retinol is popularly known as the go-to ingredient for anti-aging benefits, like reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, evening out skin tone and hyperpigmentation.
The serum is comprised of encapsulated retinol, a version of retinol that is time-released and has fewer side effects. It enables the retinol to penetrate more deeply into the skin. Dermatologists state that this serum is 5x more effective than regular retinol alone. It’s also infused with Beauactive that boosts collagen and improves skin texture. The lightly fragranced serum comes in a bottle with a lid that has an air button which draws the liquid up into an eye dropper. The dropper provides the right amount of serum to use every time. I love the fact that the serum is both oil and alcohol free.
My face and neck have lost elasticity over time due to intrinsic aging, Winter is never kind to my skin and I need something to address dry patches and uneven skin tone. Extra ‘glow’ for my dull skin would also be a bonus. As retinol can cause redness and dry skin I worked it into my routine for a few nights then built it up to every day/evening as my skin tolerated the formula. After cleansing I gently massage two to three drops of serum into my skin, leaving it for a minute or so to absorb before applying moisturiser. I also apply SPF 50 sunscreen in the mornings to protect my skin from sun damage. The serum absorbed very quickly. It’s lightweight and feels like silk on my skin. It went well with my other skincare and provided a good base for my makeup. I have experienced no irritation or breakouts after daily use.
After four weeks of using this product my skin feels hydrated and smoother. It has plumped my skin and as a result patches of dry flakey skin on my cheeks have softened and my fine lines are less noticeable. Even my pigmentation has improved slightly. Deeper wrinkles around my mouth and on my forehead will require ongoing usage but hey I am loving the results so far. I wake up in the morning with brighter more even-toned skin. I will continue to use this serum and look forward to continued results after 2 - 3 months of consistent usage.
Tips: I would advise a patch test 24 hours before using it on your face and then build usage up slowly.
I really enjoyed this retinol product. Product packaging is elegant and of high quality. It has an unusual dropper dispenser that I haven’t come across before but it seemed to work well. It has a light scent which I loved. It smelt of high quality if that makes sense. One thing I did notice was that my skin drank it up quickly (even after applying hydrating toners prior) and the recommended 2drops in the instructions was hardly enough. My skin is on the thirstier side which may be why. I use about 1/3 of the dropper to lightly cover my face. 2 drops I couldn’t even sufficiently cover one cheek. Due to the price and how much you need to use this would make me hesitant to recommend it or purchase again without considering price. That would be my only negative on this product. It left my skin feeling slightly softer upon application which is always nice and after the 3 weeks it definitely looks a bit more glowier. Retinols can take longer to show results so I’ll continue to use and decide at the end of the bottle whether or not to repurchase. Found this GREAT and soothing for sensitive thirsty skin so could definitely be worth the price tag if that’s something you struggle with and want to try a retinol. Overall an amazing little serum. I’d be interested in exploring their other products as well.
Tips: Use more than suggested if you have to. Apply hydrating toner beforehand. For sensitive skin If you’re finding it too much introduce slowly starting 1 day a week and “sandwich” between layers of your moisturiser. Retinols can be hard to introduce to sensitive skin but not impossible. Always use sunscreen….even more important when you’re using retinol products.
I was thrilled to receive this to trial. It came in tidy packaging with plenty of information. The bottle itself is lovely and neat. I really like the hygienic dropper mechanism. You pump the top of the bottle before unscrewing the lid. This means there is no worry of spilling any of the precious liquid. Then using the dropper you use this as you need so nothing is wasted. I'm hoping when I get to the end of the bottle I will be still able to get most of the contents out and not have any wasted in the bottom. I have been using the serum for a few weeks now. Initially I was unsure if I should use it both in the morning and afternoon. I did end up using it in the evenings most of the time and occasionally using it in the morning also. I have noticed that my skin is more radiant and glowing which was something that I noticed nearly straight away. My pores seem to smaller and my skin firmer. My skin overall just seems more even and products that I add on top are working even better. On it's own it didn't really make my skin feel more moisturised but it definitely provides a great start for other products. I have not yet noticed a big difference in my lines and wrinkles. I think there has been some softening and over long term use I hope that this will continue to improve their appearance. This is probably the only reason I haven't given it 5 stars. It is an expensive serum so I would expect outstanding results. Saying this, I would definitely continue using the serum. I love the way it makes my skin look and feel.
I received the Dr. LeWinn’s Serum Series – Retinol + Beauactive Renew Serum and have been using every day. I have noticed my skin is very glowy and my fine lines have appeared to reduced due to the plumping of skin and reflected glow it gives off. You only need a couple of drops as it spreads and absorbs very easily.
After saying this, I really found the dropper hard to hold and press the nozzle at the same time. The serum would come out with a hiss and a roar and you end up with way too much. I personally think this is problem with design as other products have a friendlier dispensing top than this.
I also trialed the serum on my had where I have brown sun spots and I found that with the daily use the one large spot separated into two spots to proved that it was working. I also noticed I had less pimples over this time which is also a bonus!
I would highly recommend this product but really didn't like how you had to dispense it.
Tips: Only draw up the bare minimum so you don't waste extra product when pressing the dispenser nozzle.
I was incredibly excited to receive Dr. Lewinn’s Retinol + Beauactive Renew Serum to trial. I am on a mission to find the right anti-ageing product(s) for myself, and the previous serum I tried turned out to not be very effective in the long run. The serum comes packaged in a nicely designed cardboard box, which contains all the information you need on how to use the serum. Most of the instructions are also repeated on the serum bottle, which I really like as it means you do not need to keep the box if you are unfamiliar with a serum. The bottle itself is nice and sturdy, and comes with a dropper which is very easy to use. The dropper is needed to remove the liquid serum from the bottle and put a few drops onto your fingers to then apply the serum to the face and decolletage. The instructions say to use 1-2 drops, but I found that I need more than that just to cover my face. The serum has almost no smell, and it is easily applied and absorbs into the skin very quickly. I like how the serum feels on the skin, and how easy it is to apply. Unlike other products with retinol that I have tried, I had no issues using this serum twice a day right from the start. There was no redness or dryness from the retinol, which is most likely due to the unique formulation used in this serum, which means that the retinol is encapsulated and it is therefore meant to penetrate the skin without irritation. However, as with all retinol containing products, it is very important to use sunscreen every day as the skin will be more sensitive to the sun. Although this trial was 4 weeks long, it is still hard to tell if any of my fine lines have actually been smoothed, or if my skin is any firmer. However, I feel like my skin does look very good at the moment, and I will keep using the serum twice daily. I feel like the overall positive effect on my skin so far indicates that the serum works, and I am keen to see how much of a difference it will make in a few more months. I definitely think this works better than the previous serum I have used, and I really like the fact that the encapsulated retinol causes no skin issues.
Tips: If you’ve had any issues with retinol before, I would recommend giving this serum a go because retinol is supposed to be the best anti-ageing ingredient currently available, and this serum makes it safe to use.
Firstly I wasn't expecting plastic packaging on this one but it is functional and works so whilst not complaining this one doesn't look as pretty on my dresser.
The product itself us easy to pick up using the dropper and dispenses well. It has little to no scent and goes on like a dream. The gel is light and hydrating and able to be worn under moisturizer with no issues.
Daily use has left me with skin that feels firmer, smoother and appears more healthy. I definitely think the renew has not necessarily cured me of aging signs but helped to reduce finer lines on my face until near camouflage
A beautiful lightweight and easily absorbed product that leaves your skin feeling nourished
Tips: A little goes a long way
