This stick is great for travel, but it is OK compared to the Overnight Success Mask/lotion and the Renew Retinol serum CP used to have. (Please bring back the Overnight Success Mask Colourpop!)
The A-list stick is easy to toss in a bag, and like the other 2 products, I wake up with my face feeling smoother and happier than the night before. However, the stick gets used up much more quickly and 1/3 of it will be left in the packaging when you get down to as much as you can twist up. You can dig the rest out with your fingernail, but it's a bit annoying. For those who don't like oiliness, the stick is a little oily too. This isn't a big deal deal to me, esp at night, but the other 2 retinol products were not oily. The retinol here is also slightly less gentle than the serum and mask. I get a slight red flush sometimes when using it, whereas I don't with the other 2 retinol products.
The Overnight Mask was my favorite because it was a lotion and serum in one. The serum also feels nice, but requires you to use your own moisturizer after (which some ppl might prefer). Both the Overnight Mask and Renew Retinol Serums lasted me a 2-3 months too (depending on usage), while the A-list babe lasts ~1 mo if I use it everyday.
