## Questions & Answers

**Q: Do you have the list of full ingredients? Please share with me.**
A: Yes ....
I have the list of full ingredients of this product....

Thank you for asking the question...

**Q: Does it contain fragrance?**
A: This item is fragrance free....

**Q: Can this be used by nursing mothers ??**
A: Not safely.  It is possible (I’m not a scientist so no idea how likely) for the vitamin A derivatives to enter your breast milk and to baby.  Not enough studies to show it is safe so I would advise highly against it (if curious, look up Accutane effects, Retinoids are a topical derivative similar.  While I do not Think it would cause nearly  such damage it is not anything I would want to chance with my child.  

 Bakuchiol is considered a safer alternative (note- it is not at all related to Retinoid and does not have the same results) but it offers some of the similar benefits and has been considered safe for breastfeeding :)

**Q: Does this do any good for eye bags specifically? Like dark undereyes?**
A: This is a Retinoid workhorse works long term encouraging  cell turnover and reduction of lines which may be able to provide some benefit to the shadows of under-eye area but will not make the dark bags go away. 

Using this product at night and then a caffeinated cream in the morning and or a vitamin C May assist with the swelling.  (The Ordinary has a low cast caffeinated eye cream that seems about as effective as some very high priced ones I’ve tried!)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Inexpensive and wonderful

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent quality at an affordable price
*by F***5 on November 15, 2025*

The Minimalist brand is new to me. I was intrigued by the formulations & low price point, which remind me of The Ordinary & Inkey List, two affordable brands with many products I find to be effective. I'm very experienced when it comes to retinol/retinal/retinaldihyde. I've used Tretinoin off & on for the past 5 years but it's been a minute. My goal is to start Tret again but bc it's been a while I felt it would be a good idea to start reintroducing my skin in order to avoid destroying my moisture barrier while reaping the anti-aging benefits that these products provide. The Minimalist 2% Retinoid Anti-Aging Night Emulsion has a much thinner texture than I expected but I definitely appreciate it as you only need 1 or 2 pumps for the face & neck. Zero fragrance, non-comedogenic (won't clog pores), & dermatologically tested. Smooth application, absorbs nicely, without that greasy, or tacky feeling left behind, & it layers well with other products (no pilling). The product is housed in a tube with a pump, which may, or may not, be air tight (better than a jar, dropper, or squeeze tube imo) & the product dispenses easily. I've only been using this emulsion every other night for about 3 weeks (with the Minimalist Retinal eye cream) & I really like it! It's not Tretinoin, which is the gold standard, but it's definitely a quality product, perfect for a Retinoid newbie, or someone more experienced like myself who's restarting their anti-aging journey. Highly recommended!
