The TT systems is incredible. I use 2drops twice a week. It probably lasts beyond a year (an ounce contains about 600 drops. The count varies with the viscosity).
Great information on TT. I started using the Dermal Booster and C gel 2 months ago and was impressed with the results. I just ordered the 1% retinol gel, c balm, biomm mist. By the end of the year I’ll be ready for a shot at the 5% Retinol serum. Happy to find all these folks in the comments that also love TT.
Amy advice for someone with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome? We don’t make collagen correctly (all 13 types of EDS are missing genes to correctly build collagen in some way which is a fundamental building block to nearly everything in the body) so finding anti-aging serums can really be hit or miss, we also tend to have sensitivities. With higher end products, this can be frustrating. I know I said this a couple years ago when covid hit but I want to say it again. Thank you so much for your content. I really appreciate what you do & how much time you take to review such a large variety of options for everyone. You are such a lovely person & help me “girl” better as my skin ages. So grateful to have found you! 💖
Oh I'm not sure. I've never heard of that before. Perhaps a Dermatologist would have some advice on that. I'm so sorry you have to deal with that. It must be frustrating. And thank you for your kind words. I appreciate you! I hope you have a beautiful week. 🤗
Thank you so much for explaining the difference between the Osmosis Renew and TT. That totally explains why I am never blown away by the Osmosis Renew!!! Can't wait to try the TT 5% Retinol for more anti-aging affects.
I have purchased several products from TT! Yes it is expensive but the products last so long for me…. I’m sure the C balm lasts a year for me! Worth every penny! I will be buying this from Leah right now! I wouldn’t be surprised if using two drops would actually allow this product to last OVER A YEAR! Wow! Thank you! Cannot wait to get this! I will likely use the TT light retinol balm the other nights of the week! This seems like a perfect combo for me!
I just finally tried the C balm. And you are right, it is worth every penny. I bet it will last more than a year. Oh that's a great idea to use the TT 1% balm on other nights. Thank you for sharing!
I love your courage, and the enthusiasm with which you promote these favorites of yours! This TH-cam environment had been such a fun discovery of mine *just this year*, but I didn't realize how vicious some of the participants and audience members can be! I naively thought we were all supposed to be helping each other, but I've learned not to offer any more tips I may have, except on only two channels where the women hosts have been so open and welcoming to audience contributions. So I love that you are still willing to explain your process and your favorite products, even though you're now retired and able to travel and relax in your life with your husband. I also love that you give credit where it's due: your genes have everything to do with your looks! We can't change our bone structure, at least not in a practical way. Thank you for your energy in these presentations! I gave myself one hell of a case of rosacea many years ago by jumping into early AHAs without researching anything; there was no online info back then, no recognition of the importance of pH and preservatives in skincare items, no rules, no awareness of manufacturing laws! It was truly the wild, wild West! So I tend to be skeptical now, and I actually use litmus test strips from a medical lab supply company and information from a generous medical chemist friend of mine to get an idea of the potential damage that might be caused by potions and lotions and other products I use in my skincare and makeup regimens. I look up every "Active" ingredient on the labels, and some of the others as well, and I rely on the advice of women who seem to be more honest than others. Right now I'm dealing with bladder issues, and I have longstanding diagnoses of hypertension and diabetes to always consider first and foremost. But I plan to tackle skin issues once my meds have stabilized and I can see my way clear to find the right ingredients, even though I know they're expensive. Deductibles must be met...I will save this video of yours for the right time, and I thank you again!
Hi Cathy, thank you for your comment. I really enjoyed reading it. My sister developed rosacea too in her late 40's and the Dr told her it was most likely from using products with fragrance over the years. Have you tried Azelaic Acid? I believe some insurance companies will cover that and maybe that could help with the rosacea??? My sister is just on a super gentle skincare routine per her Dermatologist and she doesn't use retinols anymore so I'd definitely talk to your Dr before trying anything new just to be safe. Praying for your total healing with your bladder and diabetes. Thank you for sharing! 💜 Also there are some really nice gals here, just unfortunately there are also trolls and fake subscribers who enjoy leaving mean comments or like to argue with people on TH-cam. If I see people leave mean comments to other people (if I catch it) I delete and block them. So if you enjoy leaving comments and look forward to chatting with other gals and helping others out, keep leaving your comments and spreading your help and positivity as you never know who you could be helping. 🤗
Recently purchased this from Skin Beautiful Rx and like you mentioned...this product is elegant! Have used it only for a week but noticed my face more vibrant which is incredible. You always look great and I enjoy watching your content. Blessings!
I can't wait to try the new Truth Treatment System Retinol Serum I already love the results of the 5% Retinol Gel. I also love the Electro Lite Facial Mask it's my current favorite, I like it more than the Hydro Mask from City Beauty. I enjoy and appreciate your truthful opinions therefore the products I have purchased from your recommendation I've truly loved.
I discovered Truth Treatments from one of your earlier videos and now use quite a few of their products. I love that they are concentrated and give great results! When I run out of my gel, I’ll try this new retinol. I’m so glad to get the recommendation! Also love several Osmosis products as well. Thanks for turning me on to Skinbeautifulrx!!!
Thank you! I agree, they have some of the BEST products out there and Osmosis is fabulous as well, especially their supplements! So good! And SBRX is my absolute FAVORITE place to shop. So glad you love them too!
Hey Stacy! How is your hubby? Thank you! And yes use up the 1% 1st and when you try this new one, I know you will be blown away. Let me know what you think after you try it. 🤗
@@GracefulBeautyWithSheri Hubby has his last chemo treatment tomorrow, then surgery next week. Can't wait till they remove this freeloading parasite from his pancreas! Thanks for asking. Sheri. Really means a lot to me. ❤🤗
Yes it will last a very long time. The discount definitely helps but it's still pricey. BUT well worth it IMO. If you do give it a try, let me know how it works for you. 💜
I am telling I came from using drug store online sephora products. I sayer some much with the discount tax shipping and you don’t need as much as other pru
What is the best moisturizer to use with truth treatment without irritation? I love watching you. You're so genuine and absolutely beautiful! Thank you
I would really love to try it, and it looks incredible, but right now what's working for me is the prescription retinol. I have awesome drug coverage so it doesn't cost me anything. I haven't had any real side effects from it. I'm on .25%, and all I have is a little bit of dry skin, but no real peeling or redness. I do need to get more regular with it. I haven't been feeling well, so I need to start feeling better, and get back into a routine with it. It takes everything just to get a moisturizer on my skin every night.❤❤
Thank you so much for sharing! It’s not in my budget at the moment but it’s on my radar for the future!!! You are so beautiful inside and out and thank you for sharing what works for you!
I love all your videos. Thanks for sharing details on how you apply everything you use and what order. I wanted to ask you do you use any of the retinols on your neck, back of your hands....etc, other than the face? What about the body? I don't want just a great looking face but my body is all loose and wrinkly. What can we do with our whole body to keep skin turnover? I don't think I ever seen a video about what we can do for the skin Legs included.
First day I got the product I use it right away. I use again the next day and wow this product is mine blowing. I love it. I probably use maybe two time a week.
I love this product! I have sensitive skin and haven’t had any problems. I combine it with the TT c balm and omega healing cream. Also I use the osmosis renew 3x a week at night, alternate the TT 2-3x other nights then have day off. Most retinol and tret will irritate but TT hasn’t at all.
I need to try the Omega Healing Cream. I wonder if it will be too heavy for my skin. I hear so many people rave about it. I just finally tried the C Balm and LOVE it! Thanks so much for sharing your routine! 🤗
Omega healing cream is my favorite TT product. It’s not too heavy at all for night use. My skin is so soft in the morning, especially the neck area. I just make sure I spray my face with the avene water the add some more mist to my hand with the product and massage in. It feels great! Also a nice product for around the lip to soften wrinkles. The c balm is also great under the eyes or on the lips. ❤️
I absolutely love Truth Treatment 5% Retinol Serum. The only down side to loving the serum so much is that I still have a lot of the 5% Retinol Gel left. I liked the gel so much at the time, I ordered a backup when Skin Beautiful Rx was having a sale. I have messaged Truth Treatment to see if these can be mixed and what the shelf life is on both.
The 5% gel is amazing too but you will like this new serum even better. I didn't think I'd like something better but the serum is the best. BUT I would wait to buy this new serum till you're all out of the gel. They do last a long time though so you don't have to worry about the products expiring soon. I still have some of my 5% gel so I use that on my chest and the serum on my face.💜
I love all your videos ..always great info! I use the 5% gel once per week, can I use it 2 or 3 times per week? Can't wait to try the serum when I run out Of the gel. How often can you use serum?
Hi Brenda, ONLY if your skin can tolerate it. I always say start with once every 10 days then once every 7 days then after a few weeks of using every 7 days, try bumping it to once every 5 or 6 days and keep working your way up to being able to use once every 3 or 4 days. If at any time your skin starts feeling irritated then you know that's too often. But it really just depends on your skin. Please don't forget SPF during the day. That's the most important. I use the serum the same as I did the gel but I can easily use the serum 3 times a week now. But again, depends on how your skin handles it. Hope that helps. 🤗
@@GracefulBeautyWithSheri Thank you sooo much for answering my question! Replying to the comments of all your followers is just one of the many reasons I love watching you....God Bless You and your family! ❤
I absolutely love it I’m able to use it twice a week, and I also use my 1% Retin-A microsphere twice a week and I have found that to be my winning mix in the other days 3 nights I use my copper peptides.
Oh what a great idea. I have heard other people say they too keep using their prescription and use this a couple nights a week. Sounds like you have a great routine! Thank you so much for sharing!
Your skin looks amazing without any make up. I’m 57 and still struggling with pimples. I’m afraid a stronger retinol will cause breakouts. I enjoy watching your videos, you are lovely.
Thank you. Oh I still get pimples because of my hormones. Boo! But actually this retinol is great for acne and my face doesn't break out nearly as much now. I also take internal supplements that really have made a difference in my acne. 🤗
I noticed in the description box that you mentioned that OMG (in your thumbnail) meant oh my gosh or oh my goodness. I’m happy that you pointed that out. I also do not like the typical/original OMG meaning.
I know right, I never say the Lord's name like that. But there were no photos that said OMGosh haha so I used OMG and figured I'd explain in the description box. LOL Most people probably don't care but I do.🤗
Your hair is always so shiny and beautiful - can you tell me what you use ... shampoo and conditioner as well as any styling products? Thank you for all your skincare suggestions as well..
Thank you Melody. I switch up alot but this week I used Moroccan Oil Hydrating Shampoo, then K18, then a leave in styling conditioner I get on Amazon. I think it's called Hair Food or something like that. (I have it in my Amazon shop). Then I used the Hair Food Heat Protectant spray while I blow dried and I used Bed Head Masterpiece Shine Hairspray. It makes your hair really shiny BUT it's super firm hold so don't use too much. Hope that helps. 💜
Hey Liz, if you already love the TT retinol gel, I know you will LOVE this new serum even more. Honestly, I didn't think that was possible to be better than the gel but it's really impressive. Let me know what you think if you do try it.🤗
I think they recommend it to help with penetration but honestly, some nights I'm lazy and just leave my face damp after cleansing and then apply or I mist with either the TT mist or the Osmosis mist. 💜
I love truth treatment products. I definitely want to get it they retinol but it's so expensive. I've tried the Osmosis serums including the vitamin A snd I didn't notice any improvements on my skin. I was using it for over a year. Your skin looks beautiful
Thank you for this review and I just got it. I got the gel 2 years ago and I still have some believe or not. Does the retinol “bleach “the melasma temporarily or really shed it off ? I really hope this new very expensive works for me ❤️
I know right, it lasts FOREVER. Retinol doesn't bleach the skin. That's hydroquinone that can do that. Retinol simply promotes skin cells to turn over and helps with collagen production. It's a gradual process for melasma treatment. BUT I don't find retinol to work by itself for melasma. I have to do a specific melasma skincare routine every day and night and be very diligent with sunscreen and reappllication multiple times a day. 🤗
@@GracefulBeautyWithSheri mind sharing what else I need to add to my regimen for my melasma ? I am doing castor oil packs on my liver too, hv you done that?
@@GracefulBeautyWithSheri I like it a smidge better than the 1%. These were my first products containing retin, and I’m happy to not have had any adverse reactions (that so many others seem to have)
I have been trying their products but unfortunately as of yet have not seen many results. I have been using TT gel and the vit c gel/serum both and the mist. Most of my issues are dark spots and none of those have lightened as far as I can tell and i have used these products for more then 3 months. I however will probably try the serum just because it has more ingredients in it unless you don't think its more potent. I can use the 5% gel every night with no irritation and have never gotten any peeling whatever so ever. Your skin is beautiful by the way.
Hi Barb, you prob need the big guns for your dark spots. This doesn't fade my spots the way other dedicated pigment reducer products do unfortunately. It helps with my general hyperpigmentation but not my melasma EXCEPT for when I use this in combination with my Cyspera. (not at same time) I'll be doing a video of my Cyspera results. I have a lot of photos. I bought it at my Dermatologist office but you can now get it at Skinbeautiful RX. No discount on Cyspera though. Here is the link in case you want to research it. skinbeautifulrx.com/products/cyspera%C2%AE-intensive-pigment-corrector?_pos=1&_sid=6cb92dff5&_ss=r&ref=graceful I didn't peel with the 5% gel but I did big time with this new 5% serum and LOVED the new skin underneath. BUT also I know it's so annoying but if we don't use SPF daily and reapply like every 2 hours, this stuff won't work. Like literally if I don't reapply and spend just 5 minutes outside, my spots darken up again. 😩 Hope this helps. 🤗
Hi Shirley. I rotate between a few. I love my Vanicream Daily Face Moisturizer that I used in this video. It's the most affordable. I also love using Sente Dermal Repair Cream and Allies of Skin Peptides & Antioxidants Firming Daily Treatment. Those are the 3 I have open right now that I rotate with. 🤗
Yes I did. The gel is my fave too...but this is better. But don't invest in this new serum till your gel runs out because they are both wonderful. 💜 But if you do try it someday, let me know what you think. I know you will love this one even more. 🤗
Yes it's my favorite. We sold our homes and we are just traveling living out of suitcases but guess what??? I love it so much, I brought it with me to use in hotels! LOL I have 3 of them but the other 2 are in storage. 💜
Thanks for comparing to Osmosis! That was a thought I had. The ingredients at first glance made me think of the super cheap Ordinary Retinol but not being the Retinol 5 you mentioned is likely the difference. Do you give this product more weight than Neogenisis Recovery or are they two totally different things.
Your skin looks even better than usual. Even though Truth Treatment products cost a lot to get into initially, they really do pay for themselves by the way they work and last so long. Every single product by Ben Fuchs that I've tried has been awesome and worth it!
Thank you. I still battle with my stubborn melasma. Some days it's dark. Other days it's light. Gotta love hormones LOL. But I agree, his products truly are an investment up front but they last a super long time because they are so potent so it's well worth it. I wish he made more tiny sizes though so it would be a little more affordable for someome wanting to try it 1st before making the big investment.💜
Love this too!!!! I used reta for years too and switched to TT . I had broken capillaries it messed up my skin . It has such beautiful ingredients and no nasty ingredients like reta
It's so good! I'm with ya, RX retin-a was great for a while for me, but I guess I just didn't know there could be something so much better on the market.
Hi I'm new to your channel and have enjoyed the videos I have watched thus far. I just purchased the skin lifting booster from City Beauty, can't wait to try it. I do have a question, I had a bad reaction using retinol some years ago, not the actual retinol but a serum I used a day after using the retinol (was not aware I had to avoid certain products). Anyway was wondering, would you recommend the 1% gel or the Osmosis. For the record, I'm 57 years old growing old gracefully, with little wrinkles (God-given good genes!)
Hmm that's a tough one. I personally prefer Truth Treatments retinols over Osmosis retinals. I do love both BUT I feel like I see better results with Truth Treatments. Plus truth treatments has a high amount of the non irritating form of Vit C in their retinols so it's an all around better product for my skin. Maybe try the most inexpensive 1st and see how it goes. 🤗
@@GracefulBeautyWithSheri Thank you! appreciate your response. I've been reading up on the products, and I think I will go with the Truth Treatment 1% gel. Thank you again!
I am definitely going to try this product because I feel you are very honest person and I really appreciate that. By the way what do you use on the nights when you not using TT. Thank you
Thank you so much! Well I suppose if I didn't tell you the truth, you'd all come after me saying the products I share are terrible. Haha! 🤪 But thankfully most everyone else who has tried this is sharing great feedback in the comments section. That's good to hear what other people think. On nights I'm not using this it depends...if I shave my face, I use a specific routine when I shave my face. Here is that routine th-cam.com/video/UNA7H-4Gwh8/w-d-xo.html And if I don't shave my face, I cleanse, growth factors, hydrating serum(s) and a good eye cream and moisturizer. I mainly work on my skin barrier the rest of the time. And I also use a chemical exfoliator once or twice a week after I cleanse and before serums. Hope that helps.
Great review! But I’m curious… can you be more specific about what “yucky” ingredients are in Rx tret? Also when you talk about shedding, do you mean peeling? My Rx tret makes me peel so badly but even when I exfoliate the peeling never seems to go away which makes my makeup look terrible. Does this product do that? Thank you
I don't have my old RX box anymore but look on the back of your box or tube and the ingredients should be on there. Different for all brands though so I'm not sure what yours is made up of. Yes peeling but not in a bad way. On day 3 after using my skin will peel/shed off (not anymore but it did the 1st month) but it doesn't peel or flake how it used to when I used retin a. The peeling and constant flaking I had with my prescription was often raw and sensitive. This peeling lasts a day and is isn't irritated and not red etc. It's pretty neat and then I have fresh baby skin underneath. But not everyone peels and I don't peel anymore unless I use an acid or somethig 1st. Hope that helps 💜
@@GracefulBeautyWithSheri Thank you! I've been disappointed in my Retin-A results so I really want to try this. I used the TT 5% gel a few years back and liked it, but didn't care for the texture. I really want to try the new serum
Hi, good info:) I am trying to get hold of the new serum 5% retinol from Truth Treatments, but they dont ship to Norway? Do you know if it is possible to get hold of in Norway? Thank you.)
Hi Tracey! Depends on the size jar. There are a few different sizes. But even the small jar lasted me over 6 months. It also depends on how often you use it. The 1% will usually run out much quicker because people can use it more often. 💜
They have the option to pay in 4 installments on that website also..and if the serum works great you dont have to buy a lot of other skincare AND if it lasts a year it comes out to 20 a month with the discount? I cant afford it really but I'm spending 40 a month or more on skincare and treatments for sun damage and acne and wrinkles so I'm gonna try to buy this IF that Klarma payment installment thing works with my debit card. I think theres also a money back guarantee I hope. Thanks for this video to try and inform us. I was thinking of Neogenesis serum but it's even more expensive
Hi Marie Stopa......the Neogenesis Recovery Serum of the 1 ounce size or 30ml is $320 on the SkinBeautiful RX website...the smaller size is available of 10ml but I forgot the price of that one. I'm thinking of trying the 10ml size of Neogenesis Recovery Serum but I am a little hesitant about the ingredient I think is called Growh Factor since I am 66 and used to be a sun worshiper ..I need to study up on the growth factor ingredient. Wish the Truth Retinol Serum 5% could be in smaller size also. I have heard the Truth serum 1% Retinol is very good...I REALLY hope to try the 5% soon if I save money lol
What is your opinion about Retinol; its derivatives and Retin-A causing dry eye syndrome? It still gets in under the skin if kept away, causing irreversible damage to the glands around the eyes.
I've read some things about this but I've used retinols and RX retin A for over 20 years with no problems at all. Osmosis Retinals are nice but I don't really see mind blowing results on my skin with them. I wouldn't take my advice tho...and I wouldn't take other influencers advice either to be honest LOL especially if they aren't a Dr or esthetician. To be safe, I would ask your Dr and see what they think is best for your skin. 🤗
Sheri I think i already mentioned I absolutely LOVE it, I still have. the 5% gel left I have to say I haven’t used it since I started using the new upgraded is what I call it. 🥰🥰
Thank you for sharing us! I'm inspired! Have you tried the 5% Sanitas retinol which is apparently also formulated by the same pharmacist at a fraction of the cost? I think it's $85 instead of $250? I have not tried either at this point but I'm trying to make an informed decision.
Hi there, yes I like it. I used it for a couple years before this. It is a nice product but I never bought it again after using Truth Treatments 5% retinol serum. The TT one is far superior and much nicer results for me. Maybe try the Sanitas 1st, then when you run out, try the Truth Treatments one. Then you can compare.
@@GracefulBeautyWithSheri Great to know. Thank you so much for sharing this insight. I think I'm probably just going to bite the bullet and get the TT one. I guess if you average the cost over many months or a year it's really not that bad.
I’m confused. I went directly to the truth systems website and they don’t have this product. I clicked on the link provided for the product and it takes me to a different website- Skin Beautiful Rx and it is available. This other website is reliable? Just want to make sure. Thank you.
Sheri, I was always under the impression that you shouldn't use Vitamin C and retinol together, but alternate evening/morning to avoid irritation. This product has Vitamin C in it... Can you explain? Thank you!
There are many forms of Vit C and derivatives....the C that's in this serum is not like the one you're thinking of. The one you're thinking of is called L-Ascorbic Vit C. The one in this serum is more stable and lipid soluble and it's called THD Ascorbate. So it just depends what the form of VIt C is. I always say don't play chemist and mix stuff on your own BUT if it is already formulated mixed together then it's just fine. Also L-Ascorbic VIt C even by itself can be irritating on me and many people compared to THD Ascorbate. I never have irritation from the THD form of VIt C. It's usually more expensive, especially when it's such a potent amount of it but it's well worth the investment for me because of the results I get. Hope that helps.
Very much so! Thank you for such a detailed explanation I appreciate it! Also, your videos are great, I have bought lots of things based on our recommendations and never had a fail. 😊🙏
I love Truth Treatment systems but I’ve been using Agency/Cureology for Tretinoin. I used to use TT retinol and OsmosisMD Renew beforehand and liked it but the Agency is more affordable IMO. Maybe someday I will make the switch😬
This one is better if you have a little more sensitive skin or if you can't tolerate the 5% gel. But for me I feel like it is more potent but without the irritation even when I overuse it. It also has extra ingredients that aren't in the gel. Also the texture and consistency of the serum is a lot nicer. But the gel is still amazing and a little less expensive than this new one. Hope that helps.
I don't use it full strength on my neck (prob too strong for the neck) but I do wipe the excess that's mixed with my moisturizer and retinol on my neck at the end. So it still gets on my neck but just with a buffer. 🤗
Great video! I was surprised to see that this has vitamin C in it, I thought they shouldn't be applied together because one is oil based and the other is water based so they don't mix well plus the PH levels are too far apart to work effectively together.
I think you may be confused with L ascorbic acid. The vit C in this product is fat soluble and is THD Ascorbate. But in any product, as long as it's a reputable brand, I wouldn't worry about what can and can't be mixed when something is formulated that way. What Derms are trying to prevent is people playing "chemist" in their bathroom and mixing a bunch of skincare brands and ingredients themselves. 💜
It's stable because of the ingredient called Fullerenes that are in this. The neat thing about Fullerenes is that they allow products to last months and years longer than without it. I'm sure more companies will start using Fullerenes but they are expensive to use. Worth it in the long run though. 🤗
@@GracefulBeautyWithSheri thank you for replying !! I was on the fence between the serum and the gel because of the price , but not anymore ! So I just forget about my retin a now ? I love your channel just found you and I am enjoying it so much !!!! All the best to you
@@ca9755 many people still use their retin a and only use this once every 7 -10 days, on a night they don't use their retin a. I sometimes use other retinols on off nights as well but I completely stopped using my retin a because of the irritation I would sometimes get. Hope that helps. 🤗
Good evening! I love Dr. Ben! I actually just started on the 1% balm but I'm going to try the one percent in the serum too! I'm in the process of acclimating my skin so I can then move on to the five percent... I love his products! 💙👍
Hi Sheri! I'm 65 and have been on Tretinoin on and off for years. I can make it to .5% but nothing stronger without it drying my skin out. I am debating at this stage whether to try this new Retinol from TTs or a growth factor would be more beneficial?? Any thoughts??
hmmm good question. Which growth factor are you looking to try? I think a GF is really helpful for over 40 skin BUT I think retinol is more important. BUT if you like the prescription tretinoin you are using (even if you can't go up in strength it's fine if you stay at that strength) maybe keep using that and try a growth factor serum. But when you run out of your prescription, then try this new serum. Even if it's in your budget to get both the GF and retinol, I would still only get one or the other for now, so this way you can tell what's really working. 💜
@@GracefulBeautyWithSheri Neogenesis was the one I was thinking of trying. I was on regular tret prescription from my dermatologist for a long time but tried Curology and didn't see any improvement after being on it for almost 2 years.
I use retinol only once a month because it makes my skin peal so bad. Do you think this will do the same or less irritating. I use skin care everyday and night so I do have pretty good skin but the retinal really makes it hard to put make up on. I am not turned off by the price of this product if I get less irritation. What are your thoughts. Thank you
This one is much less irritating. But 2 drops is all you need, otherwise it can cause more peeling. And don't use other actives on the same night. That makes a huge difference. Hope that helps.
No, I wish. They only have one size. Maybe since it's so new? Hopefully someday they will make a smaller size so people can test it 1st without making such a big investment. 🤗
Omg! I’ve loved the 5% retinol by TT since you recommended it. Use it 2X a week! So this is better and stronger?? With the 5% I apply my skinbetter first then the retinol. Can I do the same with this? ❤️❤️❤️
Yes!! You will love it better than the other one. What product from SB are you using 1st? I don't use this new TT 5% with anything else with it but I'd double check with Leah 1st to be safe. 🤗
@@MyMaria1224 I mean, that's prob ok if your skin is used to it. I use my lactic acid sometimes before I used my 5% gel. But I haven't tried that yet with this new one. 💜
I can't seem to find anything that works for me. I've been looking for a daytime serum, possibly the ordinary copper peptides or regimen lab Level. Would this retinol be good for newbies?
Hi Steph, no I wouldn't use this just yet if you are new to retinols. Whatever you choose for daytime, just make sure you ALWAYS use an SPF. Let me know if you need help putting a routine together.🤗
How much is it? Oh ur eyes look good. What are u doing for your crows feet n how do u get ur cheeks so high I need my cheeks high. Please can u tell me
They will be listed on the back of your box. But it's a lot more than just this 2 ingredients. I don't have my old box anymore to look on mine but I bet if you google the ingredients will pop up. 🤗
@@natashaarvanitis332 ohhh I don't know then. Mine was a cream and it was the brand retin- a. It had all sorts of thickeners and stuff in it. I mean if you like the results, I would keep using it. 💜
Have you ever tried AlphaRet from skin science, its also a medical grade cream that combines lactic acid, retinol and glycolic acid and its quite potent too.
I have their Alpha Ret Peel Pads that I bought last year. I still have a few left. I liked them but they are almost too potent for me but not in a good way. I like all their sunscreens tho. And I have their Even Tone Correcting Serum but not blown away by it. I still want to try more from the brand but so far not in love enough to repurchase anything. But I will eventually try their alpha ret cream since I hear good things about it. 💜
This is expensive and I would like to try. I am just curious.. if you are using it 3 times a week.. just 2 drops then.. how long will it last and if it does last a while is it still stable?
Hi Sheri I like to ask you . I think I heard you in one your videos if you have to choose you would choose a certain product for all over face but I can’t remember which one it was. Can you tell which one it was? I know that it expensive but if it worth it then I would consider it . Well if it is still the same or you discover something else. Am looking to just use the minimum product on my face.Since I don’t have much time and I travel. Am a mature woman of a certain age my face is not too bad 😀 I say I have much of the same issues you have or had with yours I have combo skin usually on my T zone. Somewhat oily. I do suffer with cystic acme from time to time and have discoloration from it. I been watching your videos for sometime and of all the skin beauty channels out there I do believe your is one the best. I take your advice and reviews very seriously and always looks fed to any new content you put out. Thank you for sharing your experiences and your most love products. I appreciate if you can advice me on it.
Hi there! I believe you're referring to the video when I shared my all time favorite serum that had growth factors, vit c, peptides etc and guess what? The company discontinued it and reformulated a newer more improved one!😠 I was so upset! The new one is still amazing as far as being the best growth factor serum on the market IMO. But they took out alot of the other skincare ingredients that made it be an all in one product. So now I have to use a separate Vit C and a separate moisturizer etc. It's by the brand TNS.
But I would just keep your routine simple and use a cleanser, and then a nice moisturizing sunscreen. The brand DRMTLGY has a fabulous one that does all that and it's affordable. Hope that helps.
@@GracefulBeautyWithSheri I like to try that particular Retinol . I have been using prescription ones for years Hopefully that one will be better . Always welcome anything that helps. Thank you so much.😀 Fiy Oh, and I appreciate you responding. 👍🏼💓
You look amazing! Can you please tell me if you think this serum would help with smokers lines. I'm 51 and this is the one area I have wrinkles. I'm very self conscious about them, they are fairly deep. Thank you!
Hey Genie, stick with your prescription if it's working well for ya. At least you're already using something good for your skin. Just keep using your sunscreen too and you're good to go. I know their retinol gel sometimes comes in a smaller jar so who knows, maybe they will make a smaller bottle of this someday so it won't cost so much to try it out.🤗
In the hopes of finding out which lippie you're wearing, I clicked on your Amazon shop link. I see you have Keto faves! I just started Keto last week so I'm always interested in what other Keto-ers are doing and liking! Great video as always. Someday I may splurge on this; it looks like a fabulous product!
Hi Diane, I have on City Lips Rosy Mauve matte topped with City Lips Sun Diego gloss in this video. I'm not doing keto right now since we are traveling and I don't have a kitchen but I LOVE the keto way of eating. I lost weight fast but my main reason for staying on keto when I did was I was never bloated and I felt better overall. If you're new to it, put a pinch of pink Himalayin salt in your water, your coffee, etc. Lots of people give up the 1st few weeks because they feel crappy but I never did because I kept my electrolytes up. Pink salt is an easy way to do that. Hope you have fun and feel amazing. 🤗
How come others like it ? Sheri has never lied never took a sponsorship with any brand because she is passionate about it you question her . I seen her speak about other products the same way? Why question her why watch her if you don’t believe her .
TT retinol may be 'expensive' but I've wasted so much money on cheaper products that haven't worked, I could have bought TT Retinol and saved money, haha!
Are you clicking the top link? Perhaps you scrolled below and clicked in other retinols mentioned section. So I also added this link in that section too to make it easy. But here is the link Hope this helps. 🤗 🔥NEW!

I'm hoping they will come out with a smaller more affordable sized bottle but I think because it's brand new and super potent, they only made one size for now.
My melasma fluctuates with my hormones, heat etc. Some days it's dark, others barely noticeable. Oh which C? Their balm? I don't use that one on my face (except for on my neck and under my eyes). But I love their Transdermal C serum on my face....but just 2 drops, otherwise it is heavy. 🤗
@@ritasharqawi7367 I use it almost daily then when I run out, I switch to Revision C+ or Skinceuticals Silymarin C serum. I just bought another TT Transdermal C serum last week and actually used it last night...but 2-3 drops max, not a dropperful. 💜
Hi Sheri, your skin looks amazing. I ended up going with Curology since I’m new to Tretinoin. I then switched to Agency per listening to Angie Hot and Flashy. I am only on 0.009%. That being said; they sent me the trial size of Tretinoin and The Dark Spot Formula. I have tried using it every way possible only for it to immediately start pilling. I finally got a response from my dermatologist with Agency and was told they were shipping another of each. To stop using the ones I have. It’s been very Frustrating. With that being said, and I get no response from Angie in if she experienced the same problems. So, would you mind telling me your thoughts about Curology and or Agency Tretinoin? Maybe I should stay with that until I my skin get acclimated to it then I would love to purchase the TT retinal serum. Thank you for explaining in depth the difference between the TT gel and serum. Would love to see the results you have. May God Bless you.
Hi Karla, I've never tried Curology or Agency. They have tried to send me their products for free to test out multiple times but I just wasn't interested because of the ingredients. So sorry I'm not much help but if it were me, I'd stick with what you have and see what the Dermatologist says if your'e still having issues with it. 💜
@Cecilia Cruz thank you for the info. I have been second guessing Curology and Agency. I received my Agency Tretinoin and Dark Spot Formula and no matter how I apply the Formula on it always Pills. So very frustrating. It took a week to get any replies from them. So, now still after another 4-5 days waiting for the replacements to ship. I told the dermatologist that I was used to retinal. But insisted on starting me really low. I’m really wanting to give it a chance as I can’t afford the TT gel and or Serum. So, guess I will stick with Agency for a few months and see how it goes. Thank you once again.
You can't just get the tretinoin and put it directly on your face, there has to be solvents, stablizers, emulsifiers, penetration enhancers, thickeners, preservatives. All necessary ingredients not "fillers". How did you come to the conclusion that this 5% retinol is equal to 0.05% tretinoin? Even if it is why not just get 0.05% tretinoin, its way cheaper 🤷♀️
If that's what works for ya, definitely use the RX tret. It's great. But I explained why I personally don't like tret in this video. Too much to type here.🤗
The formulator Benjamin Fuchs said it compares to .05 tretinoin. I watched an interview with him regarding this product. I bought it a few weeks ago and love it too!
The TT systems is incredible. I use 2drops twice a week. It probably lasts beyond a year (an ounce contains about 600 drops. The count varies with the viscosity).
I have been using the TT 5% serum for the last few weeks. I switched from the gel. I am the same, I have some shedding but no irritation. I love it!
Thanks for sharing Debbie!! It's so amazing. I still have a smidge of my gel left but I much prefer this new serum. 💜
Your skin always looks like it’s glowing! If this really works…. I’m glad you are sharing!♥️
Great information on TT. I started using the Dermal Booster and C gel 2 months ago and was impressed with the results. I just ordered the 1% retinol gel, c balm, biomm mist. By the end of the year I’ll be ready for a shot at the 5% Retinol serum. Happy to find all these folks in the comments that also love TT.
Amy advice for someone with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome? We don’t make collagen correctly (all 13 types of EDS are missing genes to correctly build collagen in some way which is a fundamental building block to nearly everything in the body) so finding anti-aging serums can really be hit or miss, we also tend to have sensitivities. With higher end products, this can be frustrating.
I know I said this a couple years ago when covid hit but I want to say it again. Thank you so much for your content. I really appreciate what you do & how much time you take to review such a large variety of options for everyone. You are such a lovely person & help me “girl” better as my skin ages. So grateful to have found you! 💖
Oh I'm not sure. I've never heard of that before. Perhaps a Dermatologist would have some advice on that. I'm so sorry you have to deal with that. It must be frustrating. And thank you for your kind words. I appreciate you! I hope you have a beautiful week. 🤗
Thank you so much for explaining the difference between the Osmosis Renew and TT. That totally explains why I am never blown away by the Osmosis Renew!!! Can't wait to try the TT 5% Retinol for more anti-aging affects.
I have purchased several products from TT! Yes it is expensive but the products last so long for me…. I’m sure the C balm lasts a year for me! Worth every penny! I will be buying this from Leah right now! I wouldn’t be surprised if using two drops would actually allow this product to last OVER A YEAR! Wow! Thank you! Cannot wait to get this! I will likely use the TT light retinol balm the other nights of the week! This seems like a perfect combo for me!
I just finally tried the C balm. And you are right, it is worth every penny. I bet it will last more than a year. Oh that's a great idea to use the TT 1% balm on other nights. Thank you for sharing!
I love your courage, and the enthusiasm with which you promote these favorites of yours! This TH-cam environment had been such a fun discovery of mine *just this year*, but I didn't realize how vicious some of the participants and audience members can be! I naively thought we were all supposed to be helping each other, but I've learned not to offer any more tips I may have, except on only two channels where the women hosts have been so open and welcoming to audience contributions. So I love that you are still willing to explain your process and your favorite products, even though you're now retired and able to travel and relax in your life with your husband. I also love that you give credit where it's due: your genes have everything to do with your looks! We can't change our bone structure, at least not in a practical way. Thank you for your energy in these presentations! I gave myself one hell of a case of rosacea many years ago by jumping into early AHAs without researching anything; there was no online info back then, no recognition of the importance of pH and preservatives in skincare items, no rules, no awareness of manufacturing laws! It was truly the wild, wild West! So I tend to be skeptical now, and I actually use litmus test strips from a medical lab supply company and information from a generous medical chemist friend of mine to get an idea of the potential damage that might be caused by potions and lotions and other products I use in my skincare and makeup regimens. I look up every "Active" ingredient on the labels, and some of the others as well, and I rely on the advice of women who seem to be more honest than others. Right now I'm dealing with bladder issues, and I have longstanding diagnoses of hypertension and diabetes to always consider first and foremost. But I plan to tackle skin issues once my meds have stabilized and I can see my way clear to find the right ingredients, even though I know they're expensive. Deductibles must be met...I will save this video of yours for the right time, and I thank you again!
Hi Cathy, thank you for your comment. I really enjoyed reading it. My sister developed rosacea too in her late 40's and the Dr told her it was most likely from using products with fragrance over the years. Have you tried Azelaic Acid? I believe some insurance companies will cover that and maybe that could help with the rosacea??? My sister is just on a super gentle skincare routine per her Dermatologist and she doesn't use retinols anymore so I'd definitely talk to your Dr before trying anything new just to be safe. Praying for your total healing with your bladder and diabetes. Thank you for sharing! 💜 Also there are some really nice gals here, just unfortunately there are also trolls and fake subscribers who enjoy leaving mean comments or like to argue with people on TH-cam. If I see people leave mean comments to other people (if I catch it) I delete and block them. So if you enjoy leaving comments and look forward to chatting with other gals and helping others out, keep leaving your comments and spreading your help and positivity as you never know who you could be helping. 🤗
Thank you SO VERY MUCH!
PS Azelaic acid is at the very top of my list of new things to try!
Recently purchased this from Skin Beautiful Rx and like you mentioned...this product is elegant! Have used it only for a week but noticed my face more vibrant which is incredible. You always look great and I enjoy watching your content. Blessings!
Love, love your necklace! Beautiful.
I appreciate you keeping us company !
Thanks Lena. I found it on Amazon. I think it was only 10 bucks.
I can't wait to try the new Truth Treatment System Retinol Serum I already love the results of the 5% Retinol Gel. I also love the Electro Lite Facial Mask it's my current favorite, I like it more than the Hydro Mask from City Beauty. I enjoy and appreciate your truthful opinions therefore the products I have purchased from your recommendation I've truly loved.
Oh my gosh Deborah YES!!! That electrolyte face mask is crazy good. When I 1st used it, I took a double take in the mirror! haha! 💜
Yes! My favorite retinOL! The best ! You look incredible 💗😍
It is the BEST EVER!!!
I discovered Truth Treatments from one of your earlier videos and now use quite a few of their products. I love that they are concentrated and give great results! When I run out of my gel, I’ll try this new retinol. I’m so glad to get the recommendation! Also love several Osmosis products as well. Thanks for turning me on to Skinbeautifulrx!!!
Thank you! I agree, they have some of the BEST products out there and Osmosis is fabulous as well, especially their supplements! So good! And SBRX is my absolute FAVORITE place to shop. So glad you love them too!
Not sure about fillers in prescription retin a. I use .1% pure tretinoin nothing else. I have purchased this and can’t wait to try it.
Sheri, your skin looks GORGEOUS! So radiant and youthful! I use the 1% TT gel, and really like it. But when I run out, I'm going to give this a try.
Hey Stacy! How is your hubby? Thank you! And yes use up the 1% 1st and when you try this new one, I know you will be blown away. Let me know what you think after you try it. 🤗
@@GracefulBeautyWithSheri Hubby has his last chemo treatment tomorrow, then surgery next week. Can't wait till they remove this freeloading parasite from his pancreas! Thanks for asking. Sheri. Really means a lot to me. ❤🤗
Oh! Hopefully I can try this one day. If something lasts a long time, it's a much better deal. Plus, with your discount, that helps quite a bit!
Yes it will last a very long time. The discount definitely helps but it's still pricey. BUT well worth it IMO. If you do give it a try, let me know how it works for you. 💜
I am telling I came from using drug store online sephora products. I sayer some much with the discount tax shipping and you don’t need as much as other pru
What is the best moisturizer to use with truth treatment without irritation? I love watching you. You're so genuine and absolutely beautiful! Thank you
I used Vanicream Daily Moisturizer in this video. It's super inexpensive and you can get it on Amazon or at Walmart. 💜
I would really love to try it, and it looks incredible, but right now what's working for me is the prescription retinol.
I have awesome drug coverage so it doesn't cost me anything.
I haven't had any real side effects from it. I'm on .25%, and all I have is a little bit of dry skin, but no real peeling or redness. I do need to get more regular with it. I haven't been feeling well, so I need to start feeling better, and get back into a routine with it. It takes everything just to get a moisturizer on my skin every night.❤❤
Thank you for sharing what works well for you Aundrea. That is helpful for others reading comments. I hope you start feeling better! Sending big hugs!
Thank you so much for sharing! It’s not in my budget at the moment but it’s on my radar for the future!!! You are so beautiful inside and out and thank you for sharing what works for you!
Thank you Sonia. 🤗
You look amazing, and loved the recommendations 😘 Thankyou for taking the time out for us all xxo
Thank you for watching!
I love all your videos. Thanks for sharing details on how you apply everything you use and what order. I wanted to ask you do you use any of the retinols on your neck, back of your hands....etc, other than the face? What about the body? I don't want just a great looking face but my body is all loose and wrinkly. What can we do with our whole body to keep skin turnover? I don't think I ever seen a video about what we can do for the skin Legs included.
I did not just get results from this serum. I got MIRACLE results. TT the best!
That's GREAT. I agree with ya, me too!
First day I got the product I use it right away. I use again the next day and wow this product is mine blowing. I love it. I probably use maybe two time a week.
I love this product! I have sensitive skin and haven’t had any problems. I combine it with the TT c balm and omega healing cream. Also I use the osmosis renew 3x a week at night, alternate the TT 2-3x other nights then have day off. Most retinol and tret will irritate but TT hasn’t at all.
I need to try the Omega Healing Cream. I wonder if it will be too heavy for my skin. I hear so many people rave about it. I just finally tried the C Balm and LOVE it! Thanks so much for sharing your routine! 🤗
Omega healing cream is my favorite TT product. It’s not too heavy at all for night use. My skin is so soft in the morning, especially the neck area. I just make sure I spray my face with the avene water the add some more mist to my hand with the product and massage in. It feels great! Also a nice product for around the lip to soften wrinkles. The c balm is also great under the eyes or on the lips. ❤️
I absolutely love Truth Treatment 5% Retinol Serum. The only down side to loving the serum so much is that I still have a lot of the 5% Retinol Gel left. I liked the gel so much at the time, I ordered a backup when Skin Beautiful Rx was having a sale. I have messaged Truth Treatment to see if these can be mixed and what the shelf life is on both.
The 5% gel is amazing too but you will like this new serum even better. I didn't think I'd like something better but the serum is the best. BUT I would wait to buy this new serum till you're all out of the gel. They do last a long time though so you don't have to worry about the products expiring soon. I still have some of my 5% gel so I use that on my chest and the serum on my face.💜
It must Work, you're looking amazing . I will have to do some 'research' to see if available
in Australia.
Thank you Marie!
I love all your videos ..always great info! I use the 5% gel once per week, can I use it 2 or 3 times per week? Can't wait to try the serum when I run out Of the gel. How often can you use serum?
Hi Brenda, ONLY if your skin can tolerate it. I always say start with once every 10 days then once every 7 days then after a few weeks of using every 7 days, try bumping it to once every 5 or 6 days and keep working your way up to being able to use once every 3 or 4 days. If at any time your skin starts feeling irritated then you know that's too often. But it really just depends on your skin. Please don't forget SPF during the day. That's the most important. I use the serum the same as I did the gel but I can easily use the serum 3 times a week now. But again, depends on how your skin handles it. Hope that helps. 🤗
@@GracefulBeautyWithSheri Thank you sooo much for answering my question! Replying to the comments of all your followers is just one of the many reasons I love watching you....God Bless You and your family! ❤
I absolutely love it I’m able to use it twice a week, and I also use my 1% Retin-A microsphere twice a week and I have found that to be my winning mix in the other days 3 nights I use my copper peptides.
Oh what a great idea. I have heard other people say they too keep using their prescription and use this a couple nights a week. Sounds like you have a great routine! Thank you so much for sharing!
Your skin looks amazing without any make up. I’m 57 and still struggling with pimples. I’m afraid a stronger retinol will cause breakouts. I enjoy watching your videos, you are lovely.
Thank you. Oh I still get pimples because of my hormones. Boo! But actually this retinol is great for acne and my face doesn't break out nearly as much now. I also take internal supplements that really have made a difference in my acne. 🤗
Try castor oil packs on your liver and abdomen
@@GracefulBeautyWithSheri try castor oil packs
I noticed in the description box that you mentioned that OMG (in your thumbnail) meant oh my gosh or oh my goodness. I’m happy that you pointed that out. I also do not like the typical/original OMG meaning.
I know right, I never say the Lord's name like that. But there were no photos that said OMGosh haha so I used OMG and figured I'd explain in the description box. LOL Most people probably don't care but I do.🤗
@@GracefulBeautyWithSheri I care too!! I’m really glad to find a sister in Christ. ❤️
Your hair is always so shiny and beautiful - can you tell me what you use ... shampoo and conditioner as well as any styling products? Thank you for all your skincare suggestions as well..
Thank you Melody. I switch up alot but this week I used Moroccan Oil Hydrating Shampoo, then K18, then a leave in styling conditioner I get on Amazon. I think it's called Hair Food or something like that. (I have it in my Amazon shop). Then I used the Hair Food Heat Protectant spray while I blow dried and I used Bed Head Masterpiece Shine Hairspray. It makes your hair really shiny BUT it's super firm hold so don't use too much. Hope that helps. 💜
How does this serum compares to tretinoin 1%?
Cant wait to try it. Im using the 1% and I love it so moisturizing. Loving all my truth treatment products
Hope you love this too! 🤗
I started using truth treatments on your recommendation and love it so I am very confident that I will enjoy this new product. ❤️
Hey Liz, if you already love the TT retinol gel, I know you will LOVE this new serum even more. Honestly, I didn't think that was possible to be better than the gel but it's really impressive. Let me know what you think if you do try it.🤗
Can't wait to try this! Do you feel like the TT mist/spray is important to use with the 5% retinol serum?
I think they recommend it to help with penetration but honestly, some nights I'm lazy and just leave my face damp after cleansing and then apply or I mist with either the TT mist or the Osmosis mist. 💜
I agree with you, this is the best retinol product on the market. I love this product, it does everything that you said it does ♥️♥️♥️
I totally agree! Thanks for sharing your feedback Melissa.🤗
I love truth treatment products. I definitely want to get it they retinol but it's so expensive. I've tried the Osmosis serums including the vitamin A snd I didn't notice any improvements on my skin. I was using it for over a year. Your skin looks beautiful
Hey friend! They do have fabulous products. I notice results much faster with TT than Osmosis...except the Osmosis supplements are fantastic!
What product do you use to get rid of the shedding? And Thank You...I Love all of your videos.
I like Montarbo Skincare Lactic Brightening Treatment or FaceTheory Mandelic Acid. and then lots of hydration.
@@GracefulBeautyWithSheri I will check those out. Thank You for your Awesome videos💛
Thank you for this review and I just got it. I got the gel 2 years ago and I still have some believe or not. Does the retinol “bleach “the melasma temporarily or really shed it off ? I really hope this new very expensive works for me ❤️
I know right, it lasts FOREVER. Retinol doesn't bleach the skin. That's hydroquinone that can do that. Retinol simply promotes skin cells to turn over and helps with collagen production. It's a gradual process for melasma treatment. BUT I don't find retinol to work by itself for melasma. I have to do a specific melasma skincare routine every day and night and be very diligent with sunscreen and reappllication multiple times a day. 🤗
@@GracefulBeautyWithSheri mind sharing what else I need to add to my regimen for my melasma ? I am doing castor oil packs on my liver too, hv you done that?
Started with the small pot of 1%, now I’m on the big pot of 5%! Will definitely try serum after that!
Oh awesome, how do you like the 5% gel compared to the 1%?
@@GracefulBeautyWithSheri I like it a smidge better than the 1%. These were my first products containing retin, and I’m happy to not have had any adverse reactions (that so many others seem to have)
I have been trying their products but unfortunately as of yet have not seen many results. I have been using TT gel and the vit c gel/serum both and the mist. Most of my issues are dark spots and none of those have lightened as far as I can tell and i have used these products for more then 3 months. I however will probably try the serum just because it has more ingredients in it unless you don't think its more potent. I can use the 5% gel every night with no irritation and have never gotten any peeling whatever so ever. Your skin is beautiful by the way.
Hi Barb, you prob need the big guns for your dark spots. This doesn't fade my spots the way other dedicated pigment reducer products do unfortunately. It helps with my general hyperpigmentation but not my melasma EXCEPT for when I use this in combination with my Cyspera. (not at same time) I'll be doing a video of my Cyspera results. I have a lot of photos. I bought it at my Dermatologist office but you can now get it at Skinbeautiful RX. No discount on Cyspera though. Here is the link in case you want to research it. skinbeautifulrx.com/products/cyspera%C2%AE-intensive-pigment-corrector?_pos=1&_sid=6cb92dff5&_ss=r&ref=graceful
I didn't peel with the 5% gel but I did big time with this new 5% serum and LOVED the new skin underneath. BUT also I know it's so annoying but if we don't use SPF daily and reapply like every 2 hours, this stuff won't work. Like literally if I don't reapply and spend just 5 minutes outside, my spots darken up again. 😩 Hope this helps. 🤗
Hi Sheri, what moisturizer are you using right now? Can you share it with us? Thank you.
Hi Shirley. I rotate between a few. I love my Vanicream Daily Face Moisturizer that I used in this video. It's the most affordable. I also love using Sente Dermal Repair Cream and Allies of Skin Peptides & Antioxidants Firming Daily Treatment. Those are the 3 I have open right now that I rotate with. 🤗
I’ve been using the gel for over a year and love it! Did you replace your gel with this one?
Yes I did. The gel is my fave too...but this is better. But don't invest in this new serum till your gel runs out because they are both wonderful. 💜 But if you do try it someday, let me know what you think. I know you will love this one even more. 🤗
Hi Sheri, do you still like the soap dispenser you purchased on Amazon? I am looking to buy it & would love your opinion. Thank you
Yes it's my favorite. We sold our homes and we are just traveling living out of suitcases but guess what??? I love it so much, I brought it with me to use in hotels! LOL I have 3 of them but the other 2 are in storage. 💜
Then I'm buying it today ! Thank you sooooo much lovely lady!!!! I'm looking at the chrome & the black!
Can you use foaming soap in the dispenser?
Thanks for comparing to Osmosis! That was a thought I had. The ingredients at first glance made me think of the super cheap Ordinary Retinol but not being the Retinol 5 you mentioned is likely the difference. Do you give this product more weight than Neogenisis Recovery or are they two totally different things.
Your skin looks even better than usual. Even though Truth Treatment products cost a lot to get into initially, they really do pay for themselves by the way they work and last so long. Every single product by Ben Fuchs that I've tried has been awesome and worth it!
Thank you. I still battle with my stubborn melasma. Some days it's dark. Other days it's light. Gotta love hormones LOL. But I agree, his products truly are an investment up front but they last a super long time because they are so potent so it's well worth it. I wish he made more tiny sizes though so it would be a little more affordable for someome wanting to try it 1st before making the big investment.💜
Love this too!!!! I used reta for years too and switched to TT . I had broken capillaries it messed up my skin . It has such beautiful ingredients and no nasty ingredients like reta
It's so good! I'm with ya, RX retin-a was great for a while for me, but I guess I just didn't know there could be something so much better on the market.
Hi I'm new to your channel and have enjoyed the videos I have watched thus far. I just purchased the skin lifting booster from City Beauty, can't wait to try it. I do have a question, I had a bad reaction using retinol some years ago, not the actual retinol but a serum I used a day after using the retinol (was not aware I had to avoid certain products). Anyway was wondering, would you recommend the 1% gel or the Osmosis. For the record, I'm 57 years old growing old gracefully, with little wrinkles (God-given good genes!)
Hmm that's a tough one. I personally prefer Truth Treatments retinols over Osmosis retinals. I do love both BUT I feel like I see better results with Truth Treatments. Plus truth treatments has a high amount of the non irritating form of Vit C in their retinols so it's an all around better product for my skin. Maybe try the most inexpensive 1st and see how it goes. 🤗
@@GracefulBeautyWithSheri Thank you! appreciate your response. I've been reading up on the products, and I think I will go with the Truth Treatment 1% gel. Thank you again!
I am definitely going to try this product because I feel you are very honest person and I really appreciate that. By the way what do you use on the nights when you not using TT. Thank you
Thank you so much! Well I suppose if I didn't tell you the truth, you'd all come after me saying the products I share are terrible. Haha! 🤪 But thankfully most everyone else who has tried this is sharing great feedback in the comments section. That's good to hear what other people think. On nights I'm not using this it depends...if I shave my face, I use a specific routine when I shave my face. Here is that routine th-cam.com/video/UNA7H-4Gwh8/w-d-xo.html And if I don't shave my face, I cleanse, growth factors, hydrating serum(s) and a good eye cream and moisturizer. I mainly work on my skin barrier the rest of the time. And I also use a chemical exfoliator once or twice a week after I cleanse and before serums. Hope that helps.
You look so beautiful, thank you so much for all your great videos and all the wonderful products you tell us about 💕
Hey Lakersha! Thanks friend! Hope you and hubby had a great weekend!
Great review! But I’m curious… can you be more specific about what “yucky” ingredients are in Rx tret? Also when you talk about shedding, do you mean peeling? My Rx tret makes me peel so badly but even when I exfoliate the peeling never seems to go away which makes my makeup look terrible. Does this product do that? Thank you
I don't have my old RX box anymore but look on the back of your box or tube and the ingredients should be on there. Different for all brands though so I'm not sure what yours is made up of. Yes peeling but not in a bad way. On day 3 after using my skin will peel/shed off (not anymore but it did the 1st month) but it doesn't peel or flake how it used to when I used retin a. The peeling and constant flaking I had with my prescription was often raw and sensitive. This peeling lasts a day and is isn't irritated and not red etc. It's pretty neat and then I have fresh baby skin underneath. But not everyone peels and I don't peel anymore unless I use an acid or somethig 1st. Hope that helps 💜
@@GracefulBeautyWithSheri Thank you! I've been disappointed in my Retin-A results so I really want to try this. I used the TT 5% gel a few years back and liked it, but didn't care for the texture. I really want to try the new serum
What are your thoughts on the Maelove Retinal? I've been considering it...
I haven't tried it but the ingredients look nice.
@@GracefulBeautyWithSheri Perhaps I'll give it a go!
Hi, good info:) I am trying to get hold of the new serum 5% retinol from Truth Treatments, but they dont ship to Norway?
Do you know if it is possible to get hold of in Norway? Thank you.)
Unfortunately this is the only place that is allowed to sell it.
How long does the TT gel last? I'm in Australia and the gel is easier to access so thinking that would be nice to try.
Hi Tracey! Depends on the size jar. There are a few different sizes. But even the small jar lasted me over 6 months. It also depends on how often you use it. The 1% will usually run out much quicker because people can use it more often. 💜
Think of it this way… more retinol, more irritation ☝🏽 pea size amount/2 drops ALWAYS❤️ great advice
Amen sister! 🤗 thank you!
So interesting ! THANKYOU l m going to try this as well!
Blessing from Venice
Thank you Claudia!
This sounds like a lovely product, and maybe one day I can afford to try it. Until then, I will have to content myself with watching your channel. 💜
It is very lovely but thank you Felicia. I appreciate you watching and chatting with us. Hope you're having a nice weekend. 🤗
It will last you a year if you are buying junk it adds up . Plus tax shipping
They have the option to pay in 4 installments on that website also..and if the serum works great you dont have to buy a lot of other skincare AND if it lasts a year it comes out to 20 a month with the discount? I cant afford it really but I'm spending 40 a month or more on skincare and treatments for sun damage and acne and wrinkles so I'm gonna try to buy this IF that Klarma payment installment thing works with my debit card. I think theres also a money back guarantee I hope. Thanks for this video to try and inform us. I was thinking of Neogenesis serum but it's even more expensive
@@bethreid3352 what NeoGenesis product ?
Hi Marie Stopa......the Neogenesis Recovery Serum of the 1 ounce size or 30ml is $320 on the SkinBeautiful RX website...the smaller size is available of 10ml but I forgot the price of that one. I'm thinking of trying the 10ml size of Neogenesis Recovery Serum but I am a little hesitant about the ingredient I think is called Growh Factor since I am 66 and used to be a sun worshiper ..I need to study up on the growth factor ingredient. Wish the Truth Retinol Serum 5% could be in smaller size also. I have heard the Truth serum 1% Retinol is very good...I REALLY hope to try the 5% soon if I save money lol
What is your opinion about Retinol; its derivatives and Retin-A causing dry eye syndrome? It still gets in under the skin if kept away, causing irreversible damage to the glands around the eyes.
I've read some things about this but I've used retinols and RX retin A for over 20 years with no problems at all. Osmosis Retinals are nice but I don't really see mind blowing results on my skin with them. I wouldn't take my advice tho...and I wouldn't take other influencers advice either to be honest LOL especially if they aren't a Dr or esthetician. To be safe, I would ask your Dr and see what they think is best for your skin. 🤗
Sheri I think i already mentioned I absolutely LOVE it, I still have. the 5% gel left I have to say I haven’t used it since I started using the new upgraded is what I call it. 🥰🥰
I know, LOL I started using my gel on my chest and shoulders. I don't want to not use it. But this new serum is just the best of the best!
Thank you for sharing us! I'm inspired! Have you tried the 5% Sanitas retinol which is apparently also formulated by the same pharmacist at a fraction of the cost? I think it's $85 instead of $250? I have not tried either at this point but I'm trying to make an informed decision.
Hi there, yes I like it. I used it for a couple years before this. It is a nice product but I never bought it again after using Truth Treatments 5% retinol serum. The TT one is far superior and much nicer results for me. Maybe try the Sanitas 1st, then when you run out, try the Truth Treatments one. Then you can compare.
@@GracefulBeautyWithSheri Great to know. Thank you so much for sharing this insight. I think I'm probably just going to bite the bullet and get the TT one. I guess if you average the cost over many months or a year it's really not that bad.
I’m confused. I went directly to the truth systems website and they don’t have this product. I clicked on the link provided for the product and it takes me to a different website- Skin Beautiful Rx and it is available. This other website is reliable? Just want to make sure. Thank you.
Sheri, I was always under the impression that you shouldn't use Vitamin C and retinol together, but alternate evening/morning to avoid irritation. This product has Vitamin C in it... Can you explain? Thank you!
There are many forms of Vit C and derivatives....the C that's in this serum is not like the one you're thinking of. The one you're thinking of is called L-Ascorbic Vit C. The one in this serum is more stable and lipid soluble and it's called THD Ascorbate. So it just depends what the form of VIt C is. I always say don't play chemist and mix stuff on your own BUT if it is already formulated mixed together then it's just fine. Also L-Ascorbic VIt C even by itself can be irritating on me and many people compared to THD Ascorbate. I never have irritation from the THD form of VIt C. It's usually more expensive, especially when it's such a potent amount of it but it's well worth the investment for me because of the results I get. Hope that helps.
Very much so! Thank you for such a detailed explanation I appreciate it! Also, your videos are great, I have bought lots of things based on our recommendations and never had a fail. 😊🙏
@@tatikk08 Thank you! I'm glad everything has worked well for ya.
Hi! Before when you used Retin-A did you use it daily?
No, about 3 - 4 nights a week.🤗
@@GracefulBeautyWithSheri thanks for always answering! I love that about you!
Hi Sheri! How often do use this? Thanks!😊
3x a week💜
I love Truth Treatment systems but I’ve been using Agency/Cureology for Tretinoin. I used to use TT retinol and OsmosisMD Renew beforehand and liked it but the Agency is more affordable IMO. Maybe someday I will make the switch😬
Thank you for sharing that Jess. 💜
What's the difference between the 5% retinol gel and the 5% retinol serum?
This one has other ingredients besides the retinol and it also has vitamin C in it as well.
This one is better if you have a little more sensitive skin or if you can't tolerate the 5% gel. But for me I feel like it is more potent but without the irritation even when I overuse it. It also has extra ingredients that aren't in the gel. Also the texture and consistency of the serum is a lot nicer. But the gel is still amazing and a little less expensive than this new one. Hope that helps.
SOLD! If this lasts a year, it averages about $20 per month. I will think of this as insurance for my skin
Do you use it on your neck as well? Can this be used on the neck?
I don't use it full strength on my neck (prob too strong for the neck) but I do wipe the excess that's mixed with my moisturizer and retinol on my neck at the end. So it still gets on my neck but just with a buffer. 🤗
@@GracefulBeautyWithSheri Thank you!♥️
Was wondering if you received this for free or did you buy it yourself? Thank you.
I discussed this topic in the video. Thank you.
Ok thank you I just finished watching the video.
Great video! I was surprised to see that this has vitamin C in it, I thought they shouldn't be applied together because one is oil based and the other is water based so they don't mix well plus the PH levels are too far apart to work effectively together.
I think you may be confused with L ascorbic acid. The vit C in this product is fat soluble and is THD Ascorbate. But in any product, as long as it's a reputable brand, I wouldn't worry about what can and can't be mixed when something is formulated that way. What Derms are trying to prevent is people playing "chemist" in their bathroom and mixing a bunch of skincare brands and ingredients themselves. 💜
@@GracefulBeautyWithSheri Thanks for the explanation!
I am considering purchasing the 5% from TTS
If you try it, let me know what you think 🤗
Does this degrade though ? Would it be stable after a year ??
Thank you
It's stable because of the ingredient called Fullerenes that are in this. The neat thing about Fullerenes is that they allow products to last months and years longer than without it. I'm sure more companies will start using Fullerenes but they are expensive to use. Worth it in the long run though. 🤗
@@GracefulBeautyWithSheri thank you for replying !!
I was on the fence between the serum and the gel because of the price , but not anymore ! So I just forget about my retin a now ?
I love your channel just found you and I am enjoying it so much !!!! All the best to you
@@ca9755 many people still use their retin a and only use this once every 7 -10 days, on a night they don't use their retin a. I sometimes use other retinols on off nights as well but I completely stopped using my retin a because of the irritation I would sometimes get. Hope that helps. 🤗
Good evening! I love Dr. Ben! I actually just started on the 1% balm but I'm going to try the one percent in the serum too! I'm in the process of acclimating my skin so I can then move on to the five percent... I love his products! 💙👍
That's awesome Patricia! Thanks for sharing!
Hi Sheri! I'm 65 and have been on Tretinoin on and off for years. I can make it to .5% but nothing stronger without it drying my skin out. I am debating at this stage whether to try this new Retinol from TTs or a growth factor would be more beneficial?? Any thoughts??
hmmm good question. Which growth factor are you looking to try? I think a GF is really helpful for over 40 skin BUT I think retinol is more important. BUT if you like the prescription tretinoin you are using (even if you can't go up in strength it's fine if you stay at that strength) maybe keep using that and try a growth factor serum. But when you run out of your prescription, then try this new serum. Even if it's in your budget to get both the GF and retinol, I would still only get one or the other for now, so this way you can tell what's really working. 💜
@@GracefulBeautyWithSheri
Neogenesis was the one I was thinking of trying. I was on regular tret prescription from my dermatologist for a long time but tried Curology and didn't see any improvement after being on it for almost 2 years.
@@cb779 that's a great one 💜
I use retinol only once a month because it makes my skin peal so bad. Do you think this will do the same or less irritating. I use skin care everyday and night so I do have pretty good skin but the retinal really makes it hard to put make up on. I am not turned off by the price of this product if I get less irritation. What are your thoughts. Thank you
This one is much less irritating. But 2 drops is all you need, otherwise it can cause more peeling. And don't use other actives on the same night. That makes a huge difference. Hope that helps.
Is there a 15ml of the serum like there is of the 5%gel,.that goes for approx $100.
No, I wish. They only have one size. Maybe since it's so new? Hopefully someday they will make a smaller size so people can test it 1st without making such a big investment. 🤗
@@GracefulBeautyWithSheri thank you.😃
Thanks for the video Mrs 😊😊💜💜💜💜
Thanks for watching Miss Linda 🤗
Omg! I’ve loved the 5% retinol by TT since you recommended it. Use it 2X a week! So this is better and stronger?? With the 5% I apply my skinbetter first then the retinol. Can I do the same with this? ❤️❤️❤️
Yes!! You will love it better than the other one. What product from SB are you using 1st? I don't use this new TT 5% with anything else with it but I'd double check with Leah 1st to be safe. 🤗
@@GracefulBeautyWithSheri I use the glycolic pads from SB did it tonite ❤️
@@MyMaria1224 I mean, that's prob ok if your skin is used to it. I use my lactic acid sometimes before I used my 5% gel. But I haven't tried that yet with this new one. 💜
@@GracefulBeautyWithSheri but you definitely saw a better change with the new one? How?
I can't seem to find anything that works for me. I've been looking for a daytime serum, possibly the ordinary copper peptides or regimen lab Level. Would this retinol be good for newbies?
Hi Steph, no I wouldn't use this just yet if you are new to retinols. Whatever you choose for daytime, just make sure you ALWAYS use an SPF. Let me know if you need help putting a routine together.🤗
How much is it? Oh ur eyes look good. What are u doing for your crows feet n how do u get ur cheeks so high I need my cheeks high. Please can u tell me
$200. I use this near my eyes and use lots of spf for my crows feet and my cheeks are courtesy of genetics and quarantine weight gain. 🤪
What filler ingredients are in Retin A? The only ingredients are Tretinoin and Sorbic acid 0.2%( preservative)
They will be listed on the back of your box. But it's a lot more than just this 2 ingredients. I don't have my old box anymore to look on mine but I bet if you google the ingredients will pop up. 🤗
@Graceful Beauty I have the box with the insert, those are the only 2 ingredients.
@@natashaarvanitis332 ohhh I don't know then. Mine was a cream and it was the brand retin- a. It had all sorts of thickeners and stuff in it. I mean if you like the results, I would keep using it. 💜
Have you ever tried AlphaRet from skin science, its also a medical grade cream that combines lactic acid, retinol and glycolic acid and its quite potent too.
I have their Alpha Ret Peel Pads that I bought last year. I still have a few left. I liked them but they are almost too potent for me but not in a good way. I like all their sunscreens tho. And I have their Even Tone Correcting Serum but not blown away by it. I still want to try more from the brand but so far not in love enough to repurchase anything. But I will eventually try their alpha ret cream since I hear good things about it. 💜
@@GracefulBeautyWithSheri I have been on it for a week and so far love it.💗
@@lindaackerman3507 oh that's good to know. I'll definitely try it then. Thanks for letting me know. 🤗
This is expensive and I would like to try. I am just curious.. if you are using it 3 times a week.. just 2 drops then.. how long will it last and if it does last a while is it still stable?
It should last a bit over a year from my bad calculations LOL but it is stable and I believe the company says it can last 2 years.
Hi Sheri I like to ask you .
I think I heard you in one your videos if you have to choose you would choose a certain product for all over face but I can’t remember which one it was.
Can you tell which one it was?
I know that it expensive but if it worth it then
I would consider it .
Well if it is still the same or you discover something else.
Am looking to just use the minimum product on my face.Since I don’t have much time and I travel.
Am a mature woman of a certain age my face is not too bad 😀
I say I have much of the same issues you have or had with yours I have combo skin usually on my T zone. Somewhat oily.
I do suffer with cystic acme from time to time and have discoloration from it.
I been watching your videos for sometime and of all the skin beauty channels out there
I do believe your is one the best.
I take your advice and reviews very seriously and always looks fed to any new content you put out.
Thank you for sharing your experiences and your most love products.
I appreciate if you can advice me on it.
Hi there! I believe you're referring to the video when I shared my all time favorite serum that had growth factors, vit c, peptides etc and guess what? The company discontinued it and reformulated a newer more improved one!😠 I was so upset! The new one is still amazing as far as being the best growth factor serum on the market IMO. But they took out alot of the other skincare ingredients that made it be an all in one product. So now I have to use a separate Vit C and a separate moisturizer etc. It's by the brand TNS.
But I would just keep your routine simple and use a cleanser, and then a nice moisturizing sunscreen. The brand DRMTLGY has a fabulous one that does all that and it's affordable. Hope that helps.
@@GracefulBeautyWithSheri Oh that sinks 😀
Oh well I’ll check it out
Hopefully someone comes out one that is good.
Thank you!

You look amazing! Can you please tell me if you think this serum would help with smokers lines. I'm 51 and this is the one area I have wrinkles. I'm very self conscious about them, they are fairly deep. Thank you!
Hi Gloria. I don't think so. Well it will "help" but it won't get rid of them unfortunately. Sunscreen will help too.🤗
Hi, do you use it on the neck area?
I just wipe what's left on my hands onto my neck and chest. 🤗
I use a prescription Retin A right now. I wish I could get my hands on that serum but it will have to wait.
Hey Genie, stick with your prescription if it's working well for ya. At least you're already using something good for your skin. Just keep using your sunscreen too and you're good to go. I know their retinol gel sometimes comes in a smaller jar so who knows, maybe they will make a smaller bottle of this someday so it won't cost so much to try it out.🤗
@@GracefulBeautyWithSheri I don't get shedding though.
@@genietillery878 that's good. We don't have to shed for the product to be working. You prob have really good skin. 🤗

Hey Lisa! Really? Well darn, maybe I used the wrong link LOL Are you referring to this new 5% retinol serum or one of the other retinols I mentioned?
In the hopes of finding out which lippie you're wearing, I clicked on your Amazon shop link. I see you have Keto faves! I just started Keto last week so I'm always interested in what other Keto-ers are doing and liking! Great video as always. Someday I may splurge on this; it looks like a fabulous product!
Hi Diane, I have on City Lips Rosy Mauve matte topped with City Lips Sun Diego gloss in this video. I'm not doing keto right now since we are traveling and I don't have a kitchen but I LOVE the keto way of eating. I lost weight fast but my main reason for staying on keto when I did was I was never bloated and I felt better overall. If you're new to it, put a pinch of pink Himalayin salt in your water, your coffee, etc. Lots of people give up the 1st few weeks because they feel crappy but I never did because I kept my electrolytes up. Pink salt is an easy way to do that. Hope you have fun and feel amazing. 🤗
Thank you for sharing❤
Thanks for watching!🤗
This just sounds too much like a sales infomercial. When a product it good it speaks for itself, without trying so hard in trying to convince.
I suppose I should come out of retirement and get a job at QVC! 🤪
How come others like it ? Sheri has never lied never took a sponsorship with any brand because she is passionate about it you question her . I seen her speak about other products the same way? Why question her why watch her if you don’t believe her .

My melasma fluctuates with my hormones, heat etc. Some days it's dark, others barely noticeable. Oh which C? Their balm? I don't use that one on my face (except for on my neck and under my eyes). But I love their Transdermal C serum on my face....but just 2 drops, otherwise it is heavy. 🤗

@@ritasharqawi7367 I use it almost daily then when I run out, I switch to Revision C+ or Skinceuticals Silymarin C serum. I just bought another TT Transdermal C serum last week and actually used it last night...but 2-3 drops max, not a dropperful. 💜
Hi Sheri, your skin looks amazing. I ended up going with Curology since I’m new to Tretinoin. I then switched to Agency per listening to Angie Hot and Flashy. I am only on 0.009%. That being said; they sent me the trial size of Tretinoin and The Dark Spot Formula. I have tried using it every way possible only for it to immediately start pilling. I finally got a response from my dermatologist with Agency and was told they were shipping another of each. To stop using the ones I have. It’s been very Frustrating.
With that being said, and I get no response from Angie in if she experienced the same problems. So, would you mind telling me your thoughts about Curology and or Agency Tretinoin?
Maybe I should stay with that until I my skin get acclimated to it then I would love to purchase the TT retinal serum.
Thank you for explaining in depth the difference between the TT gel and serum. Would love to see the results you have.
May God Bless you.
Hi Karla, I've never tried Curology or Agency. They have tried to send me their products for free to test out multiple times but I just wasn't interested because of the ingredients. So sorry I'm not much help but if it were me, I'd stick with what you have and see what the Dermatologist says if your'e still having issues with it. 💜
@Cecilia Cruz thank you for the info. I have been second guessing Curology and Agency. I received my Agency Tretinoin and Dark Spot Formula and no matter how I apply the Formula on it always Pills. So very frustrating. It took a week to get any replies from them. So, now still after another 4-5 days waiting for the replacements to ship. I told the dermatologist that I was used to retinal. But insisted on starting me really low. I’m really wanting to give it a chance as I can’t afford the TT gel and or Serum. So, guess I will stick with Agency for a few months and see how it goes. Thank you once again.
First 😍😍😍
Moonshine 😂🤣🙃
What a huge compliment to be the first to have it!!!!
You are always 1st! 💜
Made in the basement! 🤪
You can't just get the tretinoin and put it directly on your face, there has to be solvents, stablizers, emulsifiers, penetration enhancers, thickeners, preservatives. All necessary ingredients not "fillers". How did you come to the conclusion that this 5% retinol is equal to 0.05% tretinoin? Even if it is why not just get 0.05% tretinoin, its way cheaper 🤷♀️
If that's what works for ya, definitely use the RX tret. It's great. But I explained why I personally don't like tret in this video. Too much to type here.🤗
The formulator Benjamin Fuchs said it compares to .05 tretinoin. I watched an interview with him regarding this product. I bought it a few weeks ago and love it too!
