I thought this was a really cool service. I enjoyed getting product recommendations from an expert. My biggest issue with Agency is that they didn't have enough products for various skin types. When I started to have a breakout from their formula, my "expert" recommended a bar of soap from Amazon. That just felt kind of tacky to me. I guess I expected that a skincare company would have alternative or additional products that they would be able to recommend. I would love to try the service again if they expanded their product line to suit more skin types and skin concerns.

I'm using this product every other day, because it let my face a little red if using every day. In the beginning i felt amazing with my skin but after some time started to appear some acne and blackheads that it is till today. I have to say that about the red in my face, the customer service was amazing and had someone to help me super fast. Maybe it happened just with me once i was using other products before start using agency.

This was the easiest thing to sign up for. You take an online quiz about the type of skin and any issues that you have with it and they pair you with the most ideal skincare. It is shipped in the most protective, sturdy packaging and they are in the cutest bottles! It comes with instructions on exactly how to use the products and it’s easy to change up the dosage, etc of the skincare as your skin changes with the online emails they send asking about how well the products are working!

I’ll start by saying I don’t have super sensitive skin. I’m experienced using acids and peels as a part of my daily routines but this was my first time time using retinols. I loved it. I experienced dry and flaky skin at first which quickly went away but that’s to be expected as well as a brief purging period. I found the derm to be extremely communicative. I did ask for some specific ingredients to be included in my formula that I knew my skin responds well to and that was always accommodated. I always got emails asking for skin check in’s and if I wanted to change the formula between each shipment and they were able to answer all my questions. If people had an issue with how their skin was reacting to the products they should have said something. My ONLY grievance with this is that the dark spot formula runs out way quicker than the future formula since you are supposed to use it twice a day. They shouldn’t be the same size bottle for this reason. You should get a larger bottle of the future formula. I did receive this product for a 3 month trial period and I did renew my subscription on my own. I love having less products to apply and it’s all combined in one as well as the convenience of not having to go to the doc for these ingredients.

I really liked the Dark Spot Formula, but the Future Formula was way too harsh for my skin. Even using the sandwich method and introducing it slowly, I had really severe purging/breakouts when I introduced the retinol and had to stop using it. The Future Formula is really nice though, and I’ll definitely continue using it.

I really enjoyed using this product. It was a nice gentle retinoid, and actually got me hooked on tretinoin for which I now have a prescription. I did see results (brighter skin, wrinkles slightly less pronounced), but would have liked to see more, hence why I switched to a stronger strength tretinoin. For those who have sensitive skin, this product would be great since the Future Formula includes other ingredients that help achieve results in a gentler formula. I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review.

It was convenient and was customizable to my skin care needs. I liked having an expert one click away with any concerns. I did receive my products for free in exchange for an honest review.

I received this product for free. Exchange for a review. I thinks it’s amazing that the product is customizable to your skin type, and they sent you a full 3 month trial, which gives you a great deal of time for the product to work for your skin. For me unfortunately it made my skin very dry and flaky .instead of being given an alternative product to the one originally prescribed, I was told to start using it every day, then every other day to then every 3-4 days because it made my skin more flaky and dry. This product did not work for me

I received this product for free for testing purposes through Influenster. I liked how easy it was to get my formula and i do believe the formula worked well with my skin. I don’t get extremely irritated as some may when starting a new prescription product which was nice. I also enjoy how it was just one simple product for many things. The only issue i have is the $30 a month cost. For me i couldn’t justify it when my normal products don’t cost that much but if the cost isn’t a problem for you then i definitely recommend this.

I received these products for free from Agency and Influenster in exchange for my honest review. I really like the concept of having custom made formula based in my questionnaire. Another good point is having a physician to solve my doubts or questions during the treatment. I don’t really apply every day, but I felt my skin texture changed and my skin is softer after using this product. Also could feel that my spots faded and my skin is lighter. I will keep using these products for sure! Thank you Agency!

I received 3 months of complimentary Agency Skincare Future Formula for testing purposes. I was really excited to try out a custom made formula for my rosacea and acne, and loved the idea of having a dermatologist specialist to chat with. However, I was incredibly let down. First off, the Future Formula (a blend of Tretinoin, Azelaic Acid, Tranexamic Acid, and Niacinamide) didn't reduce my redness and my acne kept coming in full force. I understand that products take time, but after 3 months of use, there has been no improvement. (I write this as I currently have 2 pimple patches on!) Second, after the first month when I "checked-in", I stated that the formula wasn't giving me results, and instead of wanting more details or getting me "in touch" with someone, my dose of Tretinoin was increased. I actually was never asked to "check in" after. Positives: It's easy to get more product sent to you; the packaging is nice; there is no odor to the product; it didn't dry me out (as long as you only use a pea size amount). I'm giving this 3 stars because this may work for someone else, but for me it didn't help.

I love the products, pros and cons. Both work excellent, quick and efficient, yet the second you miss a day or don’t continue it’s like it comes back worse. Also, if you wake up and don’t get a chance to wash your face in a hurry the product cakes up and where applied it’s like build up almost? And makes me sweat terrible where I put it for the dark spots

I love the future and dark spot formulas. However, the wash and Moisturizer need some work. They made my skin breakout more. I'm really disappointed in this combo of products.

I received this product for free for my honest review. I enjoyed the process of the questionnaire and having a dermatologist on hand to determine what I need. It was an easy process and quick! The products were nice, but I didn’t notice a huge difference in my skin compared to my normal routine. This cost is definitely an investment and considering that, I won’t be making the switch. The packaging was great and it was easy to understand how to use each product.

I received a 3 month trial of Agency complimentary for my honest opinion. I will say that the set up/intake was easy, and anytime I had a question for the physician, I had an easy and great experience with that. However, I will not be continuing now that my 3 months are over. At first, I loved have my tret and niacinamide together, but I then ran out long before my next shipment. I also had to fully stop my prescription benzoyl peroxide wash in the morning, which did affect my skin. If I used it even once a week, my skin would dry out and I’d have to repair my barrier. I never had that problem when on my prescription tret prior to using Agency. But once I stopped my wash for the next three months, my problem areas (hormonal and around my lips) just went back to it’s bumpy, lumpy self. When I ran out early, I had to improvise with my old routine for a few weeks before the next shipment came in. That shipment lasted longer than it’s expiration date and I had to throw out product. I used the same small amount every application so I don’t understand why I had issues with amount of product. I also never used the dark spot lotion because my dark spots are my freckles and I love them and did not want them to lighten. Overall, it’s a great idea, I just don’t feel it’s executed well. And result wise, I saw more positive results with my old dermatologist suggested routine (which I’m back on now) then I did the entire 3 months on this. Just was not for me.

His product is super simple to sign up for and get a custom formula for your skin. It was gentle enough on me but also effective. My skin definitely breaks out less now and does look a bit brighter. I do think the formula became not right for me very quick and needing an upgrade in ingredients because it just stopped making me see any good differences. It’s nice over all but def reevaluate often to make sure you’re keeping up with your skins needs.

Agency has good customer service when it comes to their physicians and guest relations. The price is not bad and delivery is direct.

The personalized skincare regimen developed for me by The Agency made a noticeable difference to my skin tone - particularly the dark spot solution. What I liked the most was that it simplified my routine and saved me time by using the two products they sent me along with my moisturizer. That’s it- just three products! I also like that they gradually increase the potency of the products once your skin adjusts so that it’s still effective. I received these products complimentary in exchange for my honest review, so I can’t speak to the value compared to the cost, but I would certainly consider continuing my subscription with The Agency.

I received this product complimentary for free in order to test the product. I really liked using Agency because it was clear what you needed to do and you felt prepared when skincare is otherwise quite intimidating. I would recommend this to someone who wants to work on their skincare but needs more support. You have access to a doctor and fill out surveys to see if it still works well. I also enjoyed the before and after photos you upload to your account so you can track progress.
