The blue one is for pigmentation and acne scars .
The purple one is for anti aging.
Thank you!!
Oh thank god, I bought the right one
On point
What if I need both? Lol. 🤪
@@BenicioUkulele5811 I was thinking the same thing as I was holding both in the store reading the back of them. I was so confused on which to get that I put them back and that's why I'm watching this video lol
Dont forget to put the retinol on your chest. The chest area is also prone to aging like crazy.
Thank you for disclosing that you aren’t a professional, but you really know your stuff! Thank you for doing this video, saved me some time and money.
Love how easy you make it sound! I usually avoid finding out so much because it gets so confusing so thanks so much for making it clear and bite-sized :) xx
So glad to help 😊
She is not a medical professional yet she knows more than most I have paid to be seen by!
Seriously tho💀
That’s far from the truth. She’s smart and does research but doctors and derms are extremely educated and know more then TH-camrs who are into skincare.
I think that she being smarter than medical professionals is far from the truth. However, I appreciated that she used the products before making a video about them. What the skincare industry won’t tell you is that a lot of time the products that skincare specialists, including dermatologists, recommended have never been touched by them before. For example, Cerave is known for having good ingredients (not really anything special, but also not bad for problematic skins and affordable) so dermatologists recommend them a lot. This is due to Cerave sponsoring multiple dermatologists and estheticians so they just recommend Cerave.
@@pattycarljackson The thing is that not all doctors and derms take the time to explain and understand your particular skin needs. They can often rush through their appointments. I've heard many people say their doctors prescribe tretinoin without explaining how to use it.
Been wanting a video like this on the comparison of cerave's retinols for some time too, thanks Abbey!
so glad to help!
This is a great video! thank you so much for not being biased and getting straight to the point!
Yessss! I've been wondering about these two and searching for a video. Thank you!
Yay of course!
Same here, I've done so much research the last 2 days, I'm dreaming about it at night. No joke
Yes thank you so much for this!! I believe I have heard from another video about retinol is that the yellower the cream the more retinol is in the product. But I can’t remember what video it was!!
So happy to help!
These products definitely have a purpose in a skin care routine.. for example, I use Retin-A on my face however, I can’t use it on my neck. I use the renewing on my neck with zero irritation. I am fully aware that the renewing cream is lower in strength however, overtime it will still provide the same benefits as Retin-A just will take longer. Great video and keep the great content coming! All my best to you, Marsha
😊♥️
The blue Resurfacing retinol has a significantly higher price point than the purple Renewing retinol. Also, on the package of the blue retinol it says to only use once a day whereas the purple one says you can use it once or twice a day. This makes me believe that the blue Resurfacing has a higher percentage of retinol.
$4 less. And Ulta has boho 40 % off
I am in love with your makeup in this video, it looks incredible and so dewy!! Please tell me you have a makeup tutorial video for this look?!
Im so glad you made this video. I wanted to start using retinol for anti aging benefits & recently purchased the resurfacing serum, but after looking at CeraVe claims I was so confused.. Especially because i dont have acne scars & also thought retinol did both! Anyways, super glad you answered my questions! 😃
So glad to help 😊
I’ve used both, I started with the blue bottle and used It for a few months and I never had breakouts even around that time of the month. Then when I ran out I couldn’t find It so bought the purple bottle. I broke out within the first week! So I just bought the blue bottle again, have been using It for 3 nights and can already see a difference! I’m going to continue with the purple bottle where fine lines could occur.
I love how this is not a continuous sales pitch but an honest chitchat comparing the two
I use the resurfacing one. I switch between using the Ren daily glow toner and the resurfacing retinol at night. I like both of those products! Thanks Abbey!! ❤️
of course 😊
Mam I check the ingredients list this one and I saw it contains alcohol.so is it safe for use?
can you use these with a retinol moisturizer like oil of olay 24 afterwards?
Thank you for the info, I’ve been having a hard time figuring out what each is used for
I found the ingredients between the 2 to be similar but I chose the blue one because the box says "won't clog porse." Lol! 🤷♀️
The blue one has helped my pores look so minimal! I love it!!!! I have huge looking pores and oily skin so this product is bomb for that! Plus, my skin tone looks more even. I use it every other day. I'm very happy with it.
How much product do you use?
@@samwalsh8299
One pump is sufficient enough. I use one pump and a half. It'll seem like very little product but you really only need a thin layer.
This product is amazing. I just bought the blue resurfacing one. Omg it goes on smooth isnt sticky. I wish i had found this earlier
Hi Abbey, tbh English is not my mother language and I learned a lot of skincare terms from your video, thanks for the subtitle. I also love the transition between each section
I’m so glad! ♥️
The subtitles are auto-generated...
agree!!! Her voice is nice and calm. So easy and comfortable to listen like all day.
Loved hearing about this I recently purchased the purple one I didn’t know there was another one good to know it’s har to find where to but them that ship to Australia hoping Australian stores start selling cerave soon.
Chemist Warehouse sells CeraVe in store and online 🙂 the retinol products aren't available in Australia yet
Sheridan Beverley ok awesome I’ve just been ordering mine of Iherb they have the purple retinal one haven’t seen the blue one they go out of stock quick but you can get them to let you know when they get it back in stock
She would be an amazing dermatologist!!!
The last couple of videos have been exactly what I’m looking for hahaa !!
Yay! ♥️
Perhaps the purple CeraVe is better for dry skin and the turquoise CeraVe is better for normal to oily skin. Thank you for the detailed review, Abbey.
Tretinoin was hard for my sensitive skin to tolerate, so I purchased the purple CeraVe retinol. I was able to use it nightly with minimal irritation. When I finished up the purple bottle, I purchased the blue one and found the blue one (resurfacing) to be stronger. I think the resurfacing retinol definitely has a higher percentage of retinol. I enjoy both products for my face.
That totally makes sense!! That’s what I was guessing
Oh I have the purple one.. Scared to start it 😅..
Would you please brief me on how it was for you.. How did you start.. How did you work it up.. What and when were your results? Precautions on eye area and moisturizers etc..
Inbreif.. Thanks 🌹
@@AbbeyYung ÿf Fay
@@m.younis9849 No need to be nervous. These won’t cause irritation because they don’t have a high enough retinol concentration. Otherwise CeraVe would have disclosed the percentage if it were high.
Just use it at night before moisturizer. I recommend CeraVe PM moisturizer
@@FuriedHearts thanks a lot bro 😊
This was genuinely so helpful! Thank you so much!
I also think it’s very admirable that you admitted you don’t use these products because again that makes me trust you more that you’re not just trying to sell me. Love the honesty
I use the skin renewing and it’s pretty decent! It dries out my skin a bit but not surprising. It definitely has improved my skin overall but nothing spectacular
Use a moisturizer after using the serum.
Use adapalene, its more potent than those kind of retinoids
I love your honest opinions. And you and your neck fear of aging. You're probably gonna have the best looking neck in your 50s so that's great!
I did have a video request. I know you did a video on derma e powder sunscreen but since your such a fan of colorscience. You should do a video of colorscience powder. Like a comparison video maybe .... anyway love love love your videos. Also opinions on bakuchiol!
Fear of neck aging is real 😂😂 ah I know I have seen that colorescience powder but have not been able to get myself to purchase with that price point! It’s so expensive... I’ll look into that 😊
Abbey... THANK YOU !! for do the research for us! for done the "job" for us!! Always great reviews!! 👏👍👌 (btw.. you skin looks gorgeous!! Even with out makeup! :)
Of course! And thank you 😊♥️
Loving your skin care videos!! Will you be making any more of the real time workout videos? I've still been doing your older ones lol!
Thanks! I don’t think so right now 😕 it’s so much work for me to do them & they don’t get the views so the interest is just not there like it is for my other videos
I Always Love Reviews!
😊
Thank you for making this video and providing so much background information so I can decide which to buy 🥰
I definitely don't regret getting the renewing serum over the other. My skin is dry and a bit sensitive, but I also have acne that I really wanted to try a retinol for, and the renewing one made my skin feel moisturized but not suffocated. I'm not too worried about brightening my face a bit more with the resurfacing serum, since I have vitamin c I can use for that.
So glad it works well for you!
Cassie, thanks for sharing. Your skin sounds like mine, so it's great to hear about your experience. I think I'll try the same one. Thanks :)
tysm for your review of the renewing one, as i seem to be having similar problems and didn't know if it was ok to use the renewing over the resurfacing
I just got the renewing serum how do you apply it plz share.
*Thank you for making this video.* You helped me to decide to go with the purple one 😊🙌
This is very helpful - Thank you!
So glad!
I needed this comparison video! I was a bit confused by the 2 because even though they have different claims, they both seem VERY similar! I plan to pick up the Resurfacing one because I do have some acne scarring I would really like to try and fade, but I do also believe it would be beneficial in helping with the “anti-aging” aspect much like the other one. I have really sensitive skin and can’t handle the stronger retinoids on the market. I’ve tried MANY of them, trying to make them work and my skin does NOT tolerate them well at all. So I am looking forward to trying this out to see how it does! 🙂
So glad to help! 😊
Have you liked it so far? I’m from Dominican Republic and I really want to try it
@@isw14 unfortunately, this caused me to breakout with some pretty bad contact dermatitis. It irritated my skin! 🥺 I ended up passing it on to my mom for her to try it out.
I think CeraVe Resurfacing Retinol Serum is much better because in the Renewing all the good stuff is after preservatives
I never used Tretinoin but I have used adapalene prescribed by a dermatologist and I don’t member having any irritation but I can no longer afford those products so hopefully this will do me some good without breaking my bank so I can have skin like you because your skin is gorgeous
Thank you! I found this video after searching for this exact information. I recently bought the skin renewing because at 32, I feel like I’m starting to age. But I was torn between the two products. My decision ended up being based on the price! I’ve been using it nightly without any reaction at all, so far. Again, thank you!
Happy to help!
I've been using the Skin Resurfacing Serum and I really like it! I have sensitive, oily skin and I use retinol serum on my neck and hands like you do. It's not greasy, it feels very smooth and I did see an improvement on my hands!
Amazing!
Thanks. I think that is " sneaky" of them and I have to have a company I can trust... Geesh! I will try the resurfacing. Thanx.
did you experience purging?
@@naoshinanzumislam2616 nope! I don't have a ton of skin issues in those areas except an occasional psoriasis breakout. I did see improvement in texture after about 6~ weeks.
@@annetidwell4807 thanks
Abbey, have to just say your hair is looking so beautiful, thanks for the review, wish we could get more of the Cerave products that you review here in Aus, also with covid its so impossible to get online too...love your videos
thank you so much! ugh bummer
I just love your channel. I bet you hit 100k followers quickly! 😊
Awww thank you so much ♥️
Hey Abby how to Use retinol serum glad to hear your answer❤️
The resurfacing (light blue one) was easy on my skin with no issues. The renewing (purple one) dried me out so bad. My skin felt sooooo parched every morning. I say the purple one has more retinol 🤷🏼♀️
Cervae Resurfacing is Bae 😍
Yea, the purple one is for acne scars so its more aggressive.
@@GuidetteExperti thought the blue one was for scars
Hi Abbey I love your video! Thank you!! You mentioned you use the serum on neck and back of hands, but which one did you choose for that? I’m 68 and I use the resurfacing turquoise one on face and love it. But neck /hand skin is super thin and delicate. Do you think I should try the renewing for neck/hands or extend the face application of the resurfacing to the neck? 💕
I guess I will choose the purple one since it seems it is more for anti-aging. Still not certain though.
I love them both, started with the resurfacing everynight, 10 minutes after a light moisturizer, then night cream 10 minutes later. Definitely helped with 20+ year old acne scars, and my melasma. Every store in my area was sold out so I got the serum. I've been using it twice a day now and love love love it. I've been using it around my eyes even and really noticed a difference in my crows feet, under eye bags and lip lines. I tried to remove a blackhead years ago under my eye and broke capillaries and it left a red bump. Every since I've been using these the bump has gone down, doesn't look as red and it really looks like the little red lines are decreasing as well. I was excited to hear you say using it on the backs of hands and neck, what about the chest? I'm starting to notice cleavage wrinkles 🙄 My chest is super sensitive
how long did resurfacing serum took to treat your scars?
@@syedanismafatima3679 at least a month. They are still there but not as noticeable.
What's the benefits of using a light moisturizer and a night creme?
@@Kiki-AndBeyondits the sandwich method. Putting a moisturizer first means the retinol will go easier on ur skin since the first moisturizer layer is forming a little barrier. And it helps with the healing as retinoids can start peeling ur skin before it can be amazing so sandwiching can help u work up to only 1 layer of moisturizer or if u have sensitive skin it helps the same way.
Great job in your explanation. All true
Terrific video! I wonder if you tried contacting Cerave and asking them for the rerinol percentages of the 2? It's a legit customer service question. Any way, I agree with your pointing out that this seems more like a marketing situation, because any retinol should do everything claimed in both products. It sounds like both are nicely formulated though, and the skin-renewing one is supposed to target more mature customers with dryer skin interested in anti-aging ("new" in "renewing") and the skin-resurfacing one is supposed to appeal to younger customers with hyperpigmentation, oilier skin with enlarged pores, etc.
They list on their site that they won’t disclose it unfortunately!
I think the price difference is the licorice root. It's about 2-3 times the cost of the chicory root in the renewing.
Thank you for this video you helped me discovered that my mom has sun spots on her skin but which retinol would be good for the area on her hands
Happy to help! Either works. I’ve used both
Thank you Abbey--this is most helpful. I cannot tolerate tretinoin or Differin. I'm going to try the resurfacing retinol. Video is most helpful. Thank you.
so glad to help!
You look kind of look like Murphy from Grey’s Anatomy !! So pretty! Also thank you for this video it’s exactly what I was looking for haha
Yesssss I agree
Jesus loves you and he wants you to be saved through repentance and accepting him as your Lord and Savior
Thank you, Abbey, for another great video!! I use and love Cerave products.
Of course 😊♥️
I have the blue one and love it !!! 💙
Hi. I just found ur channel n I love it. Very informative. Could both of these retinol products be used together at nighttime? Or how would you incorporate both of these products? Thanks!
So glad! 😊 and no I would just use one. There’s no need to use both!
My derm recommended the blue Resurfacing for me, even though I am very mature. I think she did this because I had just had her extract a closed comedone. I would probably have gone for the purple Renewing otherwise. They do have a Skin Renewing Night Cream as part of the purple series, and I think I am going to use that over the resurfacing for the anti-aging benefits. I really don't want to spring for both, but I probably should.
The purple night cream is amazing. Worth the money to me.
I use the resurfacing one. Love it.
So glad it works for you 😊
Me too! My acne scars are almost completely gone!
Do You use the retinol Cerave in the morning or at the Night? Every days?
Ana V i use it every other day at night!
@@sjh2877 How long have you been using it?
I use the renewing one on my neck. My neck does not tolerate tretinoin at all!!! I love it.
Yesss so good for the neck!
Thank you so much for this.
Of course!
I looked on the cerave site. NOT ALL PRODUCTS HAVE NIACINIMIDE. The hydrating cleanser, lotion/body cream, renewal day cream, and such do not indicate niacinimide. However such products do such as foaming wash, renewing serum, renewing night cream, and SA cleanser.
You are absolutely beautiful without makeup, Abbey. Fine.
You should check out the Retinol serum from Urban Skin rx!! The ingredients look great and it’s a black owned brand
I’ll look into it!
Tonight is first time trying the Resurfacing Retinol Serum. Got off gym, I started with Cetaphil gentle cleanser. Applied Benzoyl Peroxide 2.5% from Acne.org. Allow to rest for 5 min. Wash away with Vanicream Gentle facial cleanser. Shower body. Dry face. Apply the Cerave Resurfacing Retinol Serum. Allow to rest for 5 min. Applied Vanicream Lite Lotion.
I will be trying this product every other day, switching with Paula's Choice BHA Black bottle (or Teal colored CLEAR extra strength; same thing as the black bottle). I do have the Cerave PM, but I'm gonna try not using it as it does give me oily look on the forehead. Will reincorporate it if this new routine i'm on is good. AM is only Cleanse and Moisturize.
Plz tell what lip colour/ product u are wearing. Looks so nice.
please do a review on trader joe's skincare!
It’s on my list to look into 😊
Their eye cream burned my eyes :/
Hi!I am a 14 year old struggling with acne on my chin and forehead.I am using the cerave acne foaming facial cleanser.I was using clindamycin,but it's not having the same effect anymore.I wanted to try the blue resurfacing retinol to get rid of my acne.What do you reccomend my routine to be and how can I minimize purging.Thank you and stay blessed!Love your videos!
I really prefer to know if they are effective with the claims instead of the amount of active.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge
Nice new review, Abby!❤️
😊♥️
Hi, thanks for the great video. Just wondering if I can toggle with these 2 for anti aging and dealing with mask wearing breakouts?
Thank you Abbey for saying to me to watch this video. That does help from your review but it is a pitty that it doesn't say how much Retinol is in the product because your not knowing what percentage that your skin can tolerate without causing problems with your skin. Is there any eye products in this range that you know of. I know that you don't need any of these but I would just like your feedback if there is a product in this range? I hope you can help and would appreciate it ☺️
You look perfect!
Giiiiiiiirl...!!!?? Didn’t we JUST congratulate you on 20K subscribers??? You are on fire!!! 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 congrats 🥳
Thank you so much!!! 😊♥️
I use them both. Alternate between the two
Her make up is amazing
Very helpful video. All I want to know is in this video. You are the best. Thank you! Love from Viet Nam.
So your skin can change just like seasons change? I think the reason why my skin felt aliterate tight I'm using nizoral anti dandruff shampoo for my fungal ance. We're I live now it's hot & humid here can that play a role in your skincare change.
Very good presentation! Very beautiful young woman!
I have been using the purple one for quite some time now - no issues. Can't decide if I should try the blue one... I wondered what might happen if I alternate each night between the two?
Hey! Thank you for your video but I have a question, can I use in my eye contour or just avoid it?
Thank you in advance
I use the blue one, I think I got it after watching another lady who said it was good. Lol. She was older and seemed to know stuff. Then you spoke about it briefly too and it I felt it was meant to be. My face does look nicer but I think I’ll try the purple one next and see if I see a difference. Thanks!!
Keep us posted 😊
How did it go
@@BattleAngel20 I do feel like I look better and my face does feel nicer. I recently switched to the purple one and it feels the same too. I am pretty happy since my face feels nicer and looks healthier.
@@shopaholiclivin so was your experience with the purple one different in any way from the blue one?
I love these types of videos :))
So glad 😊
how many times should you use the blue one cause I bought and I don’t know how many times to use it in a week
Thank you for this comparison video! Very helpful. I am newly getting into better skincare and have wondered what the difference is between the two and which is best. I have acne, acne scars, dull uneven and sometimes dry skin but my T-zone is oily. I wonder when are these products best used? AM/PM? Or both?
Of course! Happy to help. PM 😊
Your skin looks amazing!
I really wanted to like the renewing serum, I researched online and heard of how your skin may purge, and boy, mine absolutely did. Many different websites told me to give up on it if the acne didn’t let up by 30 days, and it’s been much longer than that to no avail :/ hoping to find maybe a lower dosage of it within some kind of cream!
Sorry to hear that 😢 I hope you find something that works for you!
@@AbbeyYung thank you!!
i use the purple retinol serum &’ the ordinary niacinamide,,, which order do i apply them first ? i have combination skin 🥰
renewing serum does have niacinimide. the renewing day cream is not including niacinimide. According to the cerave site
Okay this is a weird question but what nail color are you wearing? It’s gorgeous!
I have used both, mostly to maintain my acne and for anti aging benefits. I have found renewing retinol was good on thin layers like my neck, chest, and back of my hands. The resurfacing one was too hard for those areas but it worked well for my face. That is just my skin type but I hope that helps because on paper they are almost identical which is so confusing 😂
So helpful to know! Thanks for sharing this 😊
Thank you. For your insight. I want to use both daily. One in the morning and one in the evening, and I am wondering will that be an issue for my skin?
Hi abbey ! I just bought the resurfacing serum today. I am also using curology, which contains tretinoin . Do you think I can use these 2 products on different nights ? For example, use curology on mon/thur/sat. And cerave the other nights ?
Definitely!
CeraVe skin Renewing retinol says to use 1-2x daily while the Resurfacing retinol says once daily. So perhaps the Resurfacing is stronger?
CeraVe confirmed to me that the Renewing version had 1%. Same as some others on the shelf.
Interesting. On their site someone else asked & they said they would not disclose it 🤔 thanks for sharing!
Abbey Yung . That was their 1st and 2nd reply but I insisted and finally got an answer 🙃
CeraVe would not disclose the amount when I asked. Idk why they think people don't need to know when deciding if a product would be a good fit.
artchick07 That’s what they said the first 2 times I asked. Third time I said if I couldn’t compare to competitors that disclosed then I would go with the other products. They’d sent me the info.
@@francedangela9556 you are amazing! I've seen people having drastic changes with is retinol so I thought it was a higher than they were leading people to believe.
I feel the same way when I first looked at the ingredients
It might be a marketing strategy, two almost identical products, two similar products on the shelf at your drugstore, then customers have more chance to select their brand !
I use the Cerave facewash, renewing (purple), and the moisturizer. When I used the the purple renewing serum, it would clump up when putting on or once it dried it would flake off until I washed it off. I switched to the resurfacing serum (bluish one) that didn't happen. So I'm not sure why the other clumped up or flaked off (purple), but it wouldn't absorb into my skin. Cheek acne, lines and scars from the cystic acne on my cheeks.
I’m currently using purple one but was gonna switch to resurfacing one for some acne spots.
Hopefully that works well for you 😊
do you prefer the blue or purple one for acne spots?
Abbey your complexion is beautiful.
