Retinol is the gold standard ingredient in all of the best anti-aging serums, but the skin care superstars at Avène concocted a firming, plumping, and brightening serum that takes skin renewal to a whole new level. Rather than sensitizing retinol, the French-founded and dermatologist-approved brand employs Bakuchiol, a plant-derived alternative, to correct fine lines and wrinkles, which works in tandem with a slew of skin-nourishing ingredients that power the glow behind Angelina Jolie‘s youthful complexion. Today, the Avène Retrinal Advanced Correcting Serum is seeing a rare flash deal accounting for 20 percent in savings — its lowest price on Amazon this year.

Celebrity beauties of all ages swear by Avène, from Gwyneth Paltrow and Liv Tyler to Sofia Richie and Hailey Bieber, for its revitalizing skin care products that both prevent and correct visible aging. The brand’s range of hero products — many of which are also seeing a sale on Amazon today — start with a base of Avène’s thermal spring water, which works to reduce redness, hydrate, and soften the skin. The Retrinal Advanced Correcting Serum combines the soothing water with Bakuchiol, making it gentle enough for sensitive skin, while delivering noticeable, lit-from-within results.

Developed from botanicals, Avène opts for Bakuchiol over typical retinoids because there’s far less risk of irritation. It acts as an anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and collagen-stimulating elixir for anti-aging goals, such as reducing hyperpigmentation and the depth of fine lines, as well as increasing skin elasticity. A healthy dose of hyaluronic acid in the face serum goes on to plump the skin with pivotal hydration, while niacinamide supports the skin barrier and boosts brightness. The milky and lightweight formula absorbs quickly into clean skin, and, unlike retinoids, is totally safe to apply both morning and night for the best results.

Testers praise the Avène Retrinal Serum for being “so glowy” and “great for sensitive skin.” One Amazon customer was recommended the product by their Aesthetician, saying, “I developed rosacea years ago and have worked at trying to find products to help heal my skin. This is gentle, non-irritating, and makes my skin feel so fresh and firm. I’ve been using it two times a day and my bottle has lasted almost two months.” Another wrote, “I’m an avid Avène Retrinal 0.1 Intensive Cream user, so when this was recommended to me by my dermatologist, I immediately bought it. I have deep 11 lines between my eyebrows that I try to manage with a little bit of Botox. I was due for an appointment but I swear since I’ve bought this, my wrinkles are SO minimal. I couldn’t believe how immediate and drastic my results were with this product. 100000/10 recommend!”

At 20 percent off, this is the lowest price we’ve seen of the serum across all beauty retailers, so be sure to jump on the rare markdown below before it’s gone for good. Ready, set, glow.
