Others “hardly wear makeup” any more thanks to the skin-clearing formula.
When people find out that I’m a beauty editor, the most common question I get is, “What’s the one product or ingredient I should be using?” The question used to stress me out. I’d say, “Well, it depends…” and ask them a bunch of follow-up questions that were too niche for the layperson. But now, I have a standard answer: retinol.
An FDA-approved, topical ingredient, the anti-aging essential seems like it’s in everything these days—seriously, I just tried my first-ever retinol-infused lip gloss. If you’re looking to incorporate the ingredient into your routine or just try something new, Éclat’s 2.5% Anti-Aging Retinol Serum is a great option. Not only is it highly rated, but it’s also just $10 ahead of Prime Day.

The retinol in Éclat’s serum is complemented by hyaluronic acid and green tea. Retinol reduces wrinkles, sloughs away dull skin to reveal radiance, clears out pores, and promotes collagen production. All the while, the green tea and hyaluronic acid combo reduces excessive oil production, plumps skin, draws in moisture, and provides antioxidant protection against environmental aggressors, which accelerate signs of aging.
Éclat has 10 products in its range, almost all of which have thousands of five-star ratings—the Éclat 2.5% Anti-Aging Retinol Serum has 6,000-plus with benefits that are far and wide, according to shoppers. One said it made their skin so “tight” and “clear” that they “hardly wear makeup” anymore. Another shopper who described their skin as “an old leather shoe” said this retinol serum nearly completely faded their scarring and makes them look “fresh-faced.” Lastly, a 57-year-old reviewer said this on-sale serum made their skin “smoother and more lifted.”
