As someone who focuses a lot on my face sometimes to the detriment of my body, getting to 40 with the changes I noticed in my skin I decided to get a Retinol cream for its anti-ageing benefits.
One of the body lotions I discovered which contained a retinol was the Medix 5.5 Retinol & Ferulic Acid which promised to improve the look of sun damage & wrinkles by targeting 4 areas.

Texture
The best description I can give for this is lush.
While the lotion is moisturizing it isn’t greasy and feels like silk against your skin when applied. Medix 5.5 retinol and ferrulic acid also have a sweet smell.
