@@rosedolch8637 the purple states it's for wrinkles while the blue targets acne. So maybe that's the reason both products have a different feel and ingredients.

Thank you for doing this review! I am a beginner to retinol and I just happened to buy the teal CeraVe, so imagine my happiness to hear I made a good educated guess.
I love this doctors that gives as not only genuine information but free as well. If you go to those clinics in Central London you will pay so much for just a consultation. Thanks doctor as I was waiting to hear about the retinol that I have never used so I'm going to purchase mine but going sloooooowwww🥰. Thanks doctor.
You can definitely see the difference in how it made your skin look. The renewing retinol made it look matte and the resurfacing gave it more like a glassy more moisturize look. I personally started off with the renewing but definitely going to switch over to the resurfacing since you recommended in another video is better suited for older adults. Your skin is beautiful
@@danielsugaimdhhhhthhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhyhhhhhhhhhhyhhhhyhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhytyyyyyyyyytyyyyyyyytyyh. V
I used the resurfacing retinol for a few months and loved it! I saw great results and am now using adapalene 0.1% and am excited to see my results after a few more weeks. Great side by side review!
@@joshdavis2836 My skin is tolerating it well. I use it 3 times a week, max. Sometimes less, depending on how my skin is feeling. I'm in the midwest, so it's cold and dry now. I definitely had to work up to using it that often. But my skin is pretty tough and not sensitive to many things. Results wise, I find that I hardly break out now and that my skin looks the best it has in a long time. Visibly smaller pores and a more even complexion, texture wise. Definitely don't forget to reapply sunscreen the day after using it, even though you should be reapplying daily. I do notice that it makes your skin more sensitive to the sun.
I use the Blue one and after about 3 to 6 months I've noticed a big difference in my skin. Better skin texture and diminished wrinkles. You have to give the Blue time to work. Be patient and see the renewed skin. Works with breakouts as well.
Hi i have been using adapalene for about 2 years. The cerave serum combined with adapalene really works. It even reversed some wrinkles. Im very happy with the combination. Very cost effective. Thx

I used Differin gel regularly for months, After two months I seen an incredible change in my acne. Salicylic Acid & Benzoyl Peroxide did nothing for my skin. But by month three of Differin, my skin was very sensitive to fragrance. All of my cleansers & moisturizers were burning & turning my skin red within seconds. That's when I fell in love with the Cerave brand. I was only able to use the Cerave hydrating cleanser paired with either the moisturizing lotion or cream for awhile. I've been off of Differin for awhile now, and decided to try out the resurfacing retinol, I'm only about 3 weeks in and can feel subtle changes in my skin. It feels smoother already, my skin is looking less red, and all around healthier. I'm excited to see what my skin looks like after a couple of months.
My son suffers from eczema and his skin is very sensitive. It can be also red and blotchy at times. He has started to use CeraVe products including the serum - blue bottle. I have noticed his skin has improved so much and he has even ditched doctor’s prescription.
I completely agree with this! I use the purple in the winter and the blue in the summer. My skin responds far better with the purple for some reason. Not sure why but I have WAY fewer breakouts and my skin is more hydrated and I'm happier with the all around texture. I use SO many CeraVe products and I've never been mad at any of them! ❤️
The resurfacing serum has done wonders for my skin. I used to have issues with milia on my cheeks and after consistent use they’re all gone. Also I had problems with bumps all over my forehead and it’s definitely gotten so much better.
Hey what skin tone do you have? The reason I ask is I have a darker skin tone. I have milia and congestion in the eye area? Do you recommend this product and how long did it take to get rid of the milia. I have tried Aha’s and bha’s with no luck.
@@sg2684 I have an olive skin tone. It took half a year of using the resurfacing serum to notice the milia get better, and go away. I had two under my right eye one of them I had for 3 years with no luck of it coming out. 6 months after this serum I noticed it was slightly white on top. I attempted to extract it and it just came out. Before this the Milia wouldn't come out but just stayed right under my skin like a hard little ball. The other small one eventually went away on its own. I at first used it two times a week to see how my skin reacted. As of today I use it every other day or once a week.
Yes it has gotten rid of my milia. I tried the ROC cream after it and think its too much moisturizer as I notice some tiny milia again so going back on the resurfacing retinol. The ROC also has fragrance and makes my skin itch.
I used to have quite a bit of facial acne, was more of an annoyance than anything. I've been using the resurfacing serum over 1.5 years and I only have a pimple or two from time to time now, basically no acne issues compared to before I started using it. I'm 28 with very oily skin btw
*Doctor...Next you have to compare the Cerave Retinol Resurfacing Serum to the Oil of Olay Retinol24 Night Serum! Which brand will be your Winner?? :)*
So I'm in the unusual category of loving the purple one . Lol The reason being is that I can't typically use lotions. My skin does exceptionally well on this with an oat moisturizing mist afterwards and then a priming oil. It's so soft and no breakouts.
I've used both. Before menopause, I would have preferred the resurfacing formula, but with my much dryer older skin, the Skin Renewal Retinol Serum feels better.
Thank you Dr Sugai for saying ‘only need a pea size’ 😊 I was putting on way too much and my neck was irritated and red. Next day my neck was really dry and wrinkled … ugh 😩 and still irritated.
I use quite a few CeraVe products on my normal to dry, mature skin. I've used both of these CeraVe retinol serums. The Resurfacing formula is more effective, in my opinion. I had 2 small patches of dry, rough skin on the perimeter of my face and this formula cleared them up in a couple of weeks. The Skin Renewing formula I've used at night under my nighttime moisturizer. It's okay and feels nice on the skin but I don't think it does much in the way of retinol benefits...again my own opinion. I've also had very good results from Neutrogena's Rapid Wrinkle Repair cream (fragrance-free version). It's more of an all-in-1 product that I don't need to use with another moisturizer. I primarily use it at night.
do you use it daily? I purge v terribly with all the OTC retinol products I've ever tried, terribly itchy and blotchy. my skin can't seem to get used to it
Thank you Dr Sugai Now will you choose between "Olay Regenerist 24 MAX Retinol" and "CeraVE Resurfacing Retinol" ...which is the better choice for mature skin? I am now using "Adapolene" in the hopes it will help to turn back the clock !!
Adapalene does not have much research evidence at anti aging (collagen synthesis) I was thinking of using Adapalene gel, but then discovered this info. Now looking at Cerave Resurfacing seerum
Love the CeraVe products and use several of them. Recently bought this retinol (blue box) and have had no irritation at all using it nightly. Thanks for the great review!
@@tintinbuno9404 I've only tried the purple one and it worked okay. But honestly, i prefered the Neutrogena night cream(?) (that grey tub one i mean). Cerave is more like a serum and the Neutrogena one is a cream so it's even thicker.
Thanks. I’ve been using resurfacing for over a year. I have roseaca and have not had any problems, even in the beginning. I was going to try the other one but my skin can be on the oily side and I hate when products feel sticky. This does not. I love it.
@@joshdavis2836 I feel like it has kept my skin pretty smooth. Not a lot of peeling or irritation. I’m just starting my second bottle. I think it does take a bit of time to work.
They may have included the chicory root extract merely for texture modification purposes…it is rich in inulin (a gel-forming fiber). Some food manufacturers use it to add a creamy texture to products, so maybe it’s being used that way in skincare too. It has other properties in foods, but not sure if any of those translate to topical applications.
inulin is actually a prebiotic, not used for texture in skincare at all. Inulin dissolves in water to give a liquid texture not gel. It's used in food for the same reason it also has a mild sweet taste so sometimes used in sugar-free bars.
Yeah for my choice Ty for the great information. I knew i was doing something right my complexion is so much better. I started with the purple bottle switched to the green bottle👏🏻👏🏻
Looks like I'll be trying the resurfacing retinol serum! Thank you, Dr. Sugai. I am fairly new to CaraVe product, but this looks worth a try and not as pricey as Neutrogena or Loreal skin care.🙌👍🏻
The purple one is $4 more than the resurfacing one at Target right now! I have tried both but I definitely prefer the feel (and price) of the resurfacing retinol.
It's cheaper at CVS. Target has a price-matching policy so, you can show the CVS price to the Target cashier for the purple one ($21.49). The Resurfacing one is $24.49 at Target and $23.99 at CVS. Hope that helps.
After seeing your previous comparison od Retinol creams, I headed down to chemist warehouse (Australia) and chose a Sukin Biomarine facial serum (hydration)because I could not decide which retinol brand to buy. My request to you is please give a talk on sea algae/ marine skin products. I just love the way they feel.
Just ran into your RUclips videos. Thank you so much for being down to earth and showing us what is the best treatments for our skin without so pending a ton of money. Also, thank you for speaking slowly, so that we can all understand what you are explaining, some folks speak so fast in their RUclips’s. 👍🙂
Thank you for this video. Gives me a clear and simple-to-understand information about retinol and retinoid, as I'm only starting to incorporate retinol into my skin care and really was at a loss.
The Blue one has been saving my skin. I had bad hormonal ance for 2/3 years. No matter what I did, it wouldnt get better. Now I use 4% benzoyl p wash and this product and its been amazing.
Dr.. thank u so much for the review.. much waited n now I know which one to purchase😄😄😍. Dr, pls review First Aid Beauty products .. such as their Ultra repair cream .. plsss
I started using the blue one at night (resurfacing) after cleansing and after a blemish spot reducing serum (from Neutrogena) and before moisturizing instead of in the AM, and my skin feels so soft in the morning. I think I was sweating it off during the day so results were mediocre but at night, it has time to do its thang.
Thank you for all your feedback and reviews from all the retinol creams you've reviewed which is the best would it be the Roc in the white bottle that you did review on really need to know so many retinol creams to choose from please respond and thank you so much for your expertise
@@danielsugaimd thank you so much for responding back are you able to do a review on all of the creams with retinol and let us know which is the better over the counter retinol cream out of all of them like CeraVe retinol Roc retinol oil of Olay retinol L'Oreal retinol thank you so much
I don't personally find the purple one sticky, it has always gone on smoothly for me and absorbed in nicely leaving my skin hydrated and matte all day. It may be that different types of skin absorb diifferent products better. It's too early for me to comment on longer term effects, for example effects that might be caused by retinol, but I have noticed benefits from the good moisturising properties. My skin looks smoother from that alone. I've just ordered the blue one now to give that a try and see what I like best.
Why don’t brands disclose the percentage of retinol? I am currently using .5% and I’d like to try a different brand but it’s difficult because I don’t know if I’m lowering my dose or not.
I used the purple one (before watching this video). Got compliments for my skin after only a month using the purple one - people described my skin as bright, blooming or radiant. I will give the blue one a try next to try to get rid of the dark age spots.
Great review! Glad I tuned in. I use Roc Retinol products daily. Can I incorporate the CeraVe Resurfacing Serum @ night along with my Roc Retinol Deep Wrinkle Night Cream? Would love to hear your thoughts!
Thank you for an excellent clear video! Two questions: 1) Can I use the CeraVe Resurfacing Retinol Serum (blue one) with the CeraVe Skin Renewing Vitamin C Serum in the morning followed by sunscreen of course? 2) Or can I use the CeraVe Resurfacing Retinol Serum (blue one) with tretinoin at night?
Why does my skin react negatively to niacinimide? I notice I get clusters of bumps on the mornings after I apply this to my lower cheek areas, mirrored in almost identical spots on both sides.
Hello Doctor, can you please make the video of battle between Olay retinol 24 and Cerave resurfacing retinol Serum? . Because I am debating between those two and not sure which one should I buy
can you use both of them together? because i just started doing that and am wondering if it is overkill, if they are canceling each other out, or working better together.
Blue bottle 16.13 at Walmart expensive 🥺 but my question is which 1 is better for hyperpigmentation I have old dark Spots I need to get rid of plus I got sensitive skin
Thanks Dr Sugai. I just bought Ceravu Resurfacing Retional serum I have a dark blotches and dark spots on both cheeks. My dermatologist suggest this serum for the evening starting Ceravu hydrating cleanser then resurface retional serum and last Ceravu night cream purple brand marking for anti age treatment Linda A. Thanks for the clarity instructions to use for hyperpigmenation.
I’m 55 an avid skincare consumer. Glad I found you. If I’m using an aha toner, can I still use the retinol serums or creams? I use .25 tretinoin a few times a week and Roc night cream . But I also just got an aha toner for better exfoliation. Thanks.
I like how you talk very seriously about avoiding if a woman is pregnant or breastfeeding. Now, would it work on over 55-year-old people who have had acne scars for a long time?
A lot of derms seem to prefer the CeraVe resurfacing one.
I think the Renewing Retinol is for fine lines and wrinkles and the Resurfacing Retinol is for skin texture and acne marks.
Yes
Big thank you!

After seeing your previous comparison od Retinol creams, I headed down to chemist warehouse (Australia) and chose a Sukin Biomarine facial serum (hydration)because I could not decide which retinol brand to buy. My request to you is please give a talk on sea algae/ marine skin products. I just love the way they feel.
Thank you I’ll try that blue one “ the winner” as you recommended it!
Thank you for taking out the time ti educate in products, your feedback are helpful and respected.dont like greasy.
Thank you so much for saying that, Claudette. Have a nice weekend!🙏🏼🙏🏼
Really enjoy your channel!!! Keep it up! 👍 Can you make a video on retinol’s for the neck!?
Thank you and great idea!
Just ran into your RUclips videos. Thank you so much for being down to earth and showing us what is the best treatments for our skin without so pending a ton of money. Also, thank you for speaking slowly, so that we can all understand what you are explaining, some folks speak so fast in their RUclips’s. 👍🙂
Me too accidentally ran into Dr Sugai video clip n I fall in love 🥰 with its humble contents. My salute to you Dr Sugai 🥰👍🙏
Exactly...some of these speak like they are running on a motor
Thanks for this information. This is the exact type of comparison I wanted!
Thank you for this video. Gives me a clear and simple-to-understand information about retinol and retinoid, as I'm only starting to incorporate retinol into my skin care and really was at a loss.
I'm new to Retinol and planning to get CeraVe for the first time. Thanks for the video, I'll go with the resurfacing one! :)
would love to see a review on Maelove skincare line!! specifically their vitamin c serum and retinal serum :)
Love your channel brother!!!
The two skincare brands I use are Suave and Aveeno love both!
Thank you, Sean! Glad to hear you found brands/products that work for you!
So nice to see a product without glycerin...it's so sticky to me. I can't stand how it feels on my skin.
Wow, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us! I really appreciate your work!
I love this review, thanks for this once again.
Thank you so much!🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Thank you for explaining the terminology and the differences between each category under the retinoid umbrella term
The Blue one has been saving my skin. I had bad hormonal ance for 2/3 years. No matter what I did, it wouldnt get better. Now I use 4% benzoyl p wash and this product and its been amazing.
How long did it take for you to see results with the cerave
Dr.. thank u so much for the review.. much waited n now I know which one to purchase😄😄😍. Dr, pls review First Aid Beauty products .. such as their Ultra repair cream .. plsss
Wow, I was so wondering about the difference. I thought the purple one was better but you have changed my mind.
I started using the blue one at night (resurfacing) after cleansing and after a blemish spot reducing serum (from Neutrogena) and before moisturizing instead of in the AM, and my skin feels so soft in the morning. I think I was sweating it off during the day so results were mediocre but at night, it has time to do its thang.
I'm definitely going to switch to the Cerave blue when I am done with the Neutrogena bc I have age spots that started after my hysterectomy 😭
Update ?
Thank you for all your feedback and reviews from all the retinol creams you've reviewed which is the best would it be the Roc in the white bottle that you did review on really need to know so many retinol creams to choose from please respond and thank you so much for your expertise
Thank you for watching them! If you are okay with fragrance, the roc serum will be a nice option but if not, Cerave may be the better option!
@@danielsugaimd thank you so much for responding back are you able to do a review on all of the creams with retinol and let us know which is the better over the counter retinol cream out of all of them like CeraVe retinol Roc retinol oil of Olay retinol L'Oreal retinol thank you so much
@@lizramirez2089 read beautypedia

This is the best video I've seen on RUclips
I don't personally find the purple one sticky, it has always gone on smoothly for me and absorbed in nicely leaving my skin hydrated and matte all day. It may be that different types of skin absorb diifferent products better. It's too early for me to comment on longer term effects, for example effects that might be caused by retinol, but I have noticed benefits from the good moisturising properties. My skin looks smoother from that alone. I've just ordered the blue one now to give that a try and see what I like best.
I recently bought both with no research behind my purchase and I've been using both at the same time before bedtime lmao
Thank you thank youuu for making this video! So glad I got the blue one lol not even going to waste my money trying the purple one!
So helpful!! Have both in my Amazon cart and was so confused which one to get! Thank you! ❤ Your skin is gorgeous
See, I don’t mind a stickier serum. I’m in Canada and it’s cold and dry here so glycerin and shea butter sound good to me!
Me, as well. I get really dry skin during the winter months.
Why don’t brands disclose the percentage of retinol? I am currently using .5% and I’d like to try a different brand but it’s difficult because I don’t know if I’m lowering my dose or not.
I have the purple one. Seems fine to me.
So thankful you made this video!!!!
Thank you so much!🙏🏼😊
I’ve been waiting for this comparison video and your skin looks great Doc! Aloha Hui Ho! 🤙🌈🌴
Mahalo nui!🙏🏼🤙
These comparison vids are so useful for newbie like me. Thank you!
I used the purple one (before watching this video). Got compliments for my skin after only a month using the purple one - people described my skin as bright, blooming or radiant. I will give the blue one a try next to try to get rid of the dark age spots.
Great review! Glad I tuned in. I use Roc Retinol products daily. Can I incorporate the CeraVe Resurfacing Serum @ night along with my Roc Retinol Deep Wrinkle Night Cream? Would love to hear your thoughts!
Thank you for an excellent clear video! Two questions: 1) Can I use the CeraVe Resurfacing Retinol Serum (blue one) with the CeraVe Skin Renewing Vitamin C Serum in the morning followed by sunscreen of course? 2) Or can I use the CeraVe Resurfacing Retinol Serum (blue one) with tretinoin at night?
Why does my skin react negatively to niacinimide? I notice I get clusters of bumps on the mornings after I apply this to my lower cheek areas, mirrored in almost identical spots on both sides.
I have the same reaction to salicylic acid
Its most likely skin purging. Happened to me at first then I get bigger
Will buy the blue
Thank you! Glad to know that coz I’m using the purple one and didn’t even know about the resurfacing.
Thank you so much. I couldn't decide between the two. I was leaning toward resurfacing, and now I'm going to try that one for sure.
I’m new. I was looking to educate my self on this product. First time I see you and I subscribed… love how you educated us on this topic👍🏼
I just bought the purple one and saw you vlog. 😅 I will just finish the renewing then will buy the resurfing.
Hope you like both products!! Lmk what you think after comparing the two 🙏🙌
Thanks doc
Thank you. Its so hard to know with all the expensive products to buy and then not like it. This really helps sort it out.
Thank u Dr. Sugai!!. Greetings from Holland. Stay blessed. 👌✔️
Thank you, my friend!🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🌺🤙
Great review! Much Mahalos Doc! Also from the Aloha State. Take care and keep those videos coming.
Works really well ... my preference is the resurfacing serum
Hello Doctor, can you please make the video of battle between Olay retinol 24 and Cerave resurfacing retinol Serum? . Because I am debating between those two and not sure which one should I buy
can you use both of them together? because i just started doing that and am wondering if it is overkill, if they are canceling each other out, or working better together.
Blue bottle 16.13 at Walmart expensive 🥺 but my question is which 1 is better for hyperpigmentation I have old dark
Spots I need to get rid of plus I got sensitive skin
Thanks Dr Sugai. I just bought Ceravu Resurfacing Retional serum
I have a dark blotches and dark spots on both cheeks. My dermatologist suggest this serum for the evening starting Ceravu hydrating cleanser then resurface retional serum and last Ceravu night cream purple brand marking for anti age treatment
Linda A. Thanks for the clarity instructions to use for hyperpigmenation.
Your video is truly helpful doc! ☺ thank you
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Wish I would have seen this video sooner.. I just ordered the purple one.. I will get the blue when this one runs out.
I remember when u did the blue/ yur still liking the blue.... That's what i bought two months ago. I do like.... Last long.... Thank you very much😉
I’m 55 an avid skincare consumer. Glad I found you. If I’m using an aha toner, can I still use the retinol serums or creams? I use .25 tretinoin a few times a week and Roc night cream . But I also just got an aha toner for better exfoliation. Thanks.
Clean dry face
I am waiting for this review. Thank you! I hope you will make a video for treatment of high pigmentation of neck folds. Thanks!
In the meantime, Dr Dray has a video on acanthosis nigricans.
honestly I hate glycerin as an ingredient. The skin resurfacing serum seems much more able to fit into an already solid routine.
Awesome! In the market ..& so happy I found your channel!! Thanks so much !!! ✌️👏🙌
I like how you talk very seriously about avoiding if a woman is pregnant or breastfeeding. Now, would it work on over 55-year-old people who have had acne scars for a long time?
Thank you so much for making this video. It really helps me out. Much appreciated
