Retinol is a powerful active ingredient that can increase skin cell production and help to unclog your pores. Also known as vitamin A, it can be found in many anti-ageing products on the market.

In an interview with Harpers Bazaar, Reese Witherspoon said that the capsules '' really changed the tone of [her] skin.' The 48-year-old star is well-known for her glowing, and youthful skin.

One shopper said: " Keeps skin smooth even and reduces wrinkles. " A second wrote: "I was very sceptical when beginning to use these little capsules.
"They're about the size of a large pea, but the amount of serum in them goes a long way and works easily and smoothly into the skin leaving it feeling nourished. It has a very slight odour of cod liver oil if it gets near your nose, but it passes very quickly.
"It really does diminish the effect of fine wrinkles with constant use. The price though, is slightly eye-watering.
"Do I really want to pay a week's grocery money for something that will minorly reduce a few face lines? That's up to the individual. I mostly love the product; I don't love the price."
A third commented: "I can definitely notice a change in frown lines and skin pigmentation. Smoother skin and more even tone. I’ve had no dryness or flaking however I know this can occur with retinol products so do moisturise well before bed.
"Feels like a primer soft and silky texture. And pods are degradable which I love."
Not all shoppers were convinced with some people saying they had skin issues after usage. One customer said: "Very disappointed. Started getting painful bumps on my forehead and cheeks. Will not recommend."
Others felt that the capsules did not contain enough product. One customer said: "TOO little product in the capsules. I have found a much better source."
The description reads: "Proven to transform the tricky-to-treat neck area in just 7 days. Ageless throat & decolletage creme features our unique sepilift technology plus hyaluronic acid to restore elasticity, boost collagen and attack fine lines and crepiness."
