It is a single-speaker skincare/beauty clip in which the presenter — citing a board-certified dermatologist — recommends budget-friendly retinol options. The speaker reviews the Cocokind Tri-Retinol Complex, demonstrating texture, criticizing its labeling (marketing 0.1% retinol while actually containing a blend: 0.05% retinol, 0.025% retinal, and hydroxypinacolone retinoate/Granactive Retinoid), notes the ~$27 price point, and suggests it for beginners.

Chapters

Here are three budget friendly retinols if you don't know where to start. From a board certified dermatologist. Number one, we have Cocokind Tri retinol complex. I'll show you guys the texture just like that. The one thing I do not like about this particular product is that it's misleading and that they write that it's 0.1% retinol when in fact there's three different types. There is a retinol at 0.05% as well as a retinal at.025% and hydroxypinol colon retinoate, also known as granad. So it is a combination of three different types. 27 bucks though you can't go wrong. And then this is more for the beginners in the group.
