Great for Sensitive skin
I have tried to use retinol products over the years, but I have found them to be too harsh for my sensitive skin. I have been using this one for 3 years or so, 3 times a week with no problem and I see improvement. I am frequently told that I have beautiful skin.

All the Benefits of Tretinoin Without the Irritation
I'm a 38-yr-old esthetician who's worked in skincare for years and have tried A LOT of products. This is a phenomenal product that I've re-purchased many times. It's a wonderful, gentler alternative to prescription tretinoin. It has kept wrinkles away. Also makes my skin even-toned (creamy) and glowing. It's fragrance-free. And best, you don't have all the redness-peeling-irritation that tretinoin causes. My only complaint is that I wish the formula were slightly more spreadable/thinner textured.

Nice product
Spent a little bit more on this, and glad I did. I have trouble with retinol products, and wanted to try this one since it is retinaldehyde, supposed to be more effective than retinol. I am finding I am tolerating this better, and my skin is less irritated using this. Too soon to judge about the anti aging effects, but would buy again to try it out long term.

High end product
This is the second time I purchased this Avene RetrinAL product. I have really sensitive skin, most products I put on my skin makes my face turn red or have some kind of reaction (bumpiness, breakout or burns). So I'm very limited to the products I use. I know I want to incorporate using a retinol product in my daily regime but my skin couldn't handle the prescription tretinoin, so I did some research and found using the retinaldehyde would be a great choice as opposed to using retinol esters. I feel like this product is worth spending some money on and I'm just very pleased with it.

Good product, but the packaging really needs some work
This product works well, but for $ 70 it should be in a container where you can get to all the product. My pump stopped working after a very short period of time so I used a hammer to knock off the top and found half a bottle of product still inside. This company really needs to come up with better packaging.

Works well to tighten skin. Irritates my cheek area because of my rosacea. Will not apply to my cheeks.

Good product
This is my first Avene product purchase. I saw it recommended by a dermatologist as a product suitable for skin with rosacea - me! I’ve tried everything and while it’s mild it is easily irritated so I’m happy to have found a product that is compatible with my temperamental skin.

Wonderful Product
I have used this Avene RetrinAL 0.1 for several years. It is not drying to my skin at all. I find it eases fine line. My skin feels plumper after using it. I also use the companion product for the eyes.

No Complaints & Perfect for Me
I use this product in the evening as a primary layer. I haven't had any reactions to it being that I have mature skin at the age of 55. I tried other products similar to this, which all, in time, caused a reaction of bumps. This product does not! I will definitely keep this as part of my anti-aging regimen. I do notice a difference of smoothness and refreshed-looking skin.

Not drying
I have used Renova in the past, but very expensive. My dermatologist recommended this Retinol as a replacement. Great product and great price with noticeable results after 2 months.

Really Good
I use this on my neck, instead of prescription Retin A, which I find too irritating. My understanding is this is more efficacious than a retinol product. Solid product. Will continue to use.

avene reinal
I like the product. This is my second bottle, but the pump quits working when there is about half a bottle of product left. Then, it is difficult to get the product out of the bottle.

Thumbs up for Avene
I love this product and slowly am seeing a difference in my skin. It seems clearer and someone just stopped me and said my skin looked great. However, it does leave a residue on my pillow. Wish company would fix and then I would give it five stars.

Save the Bed Linens
Avene RetrinAL 0.1 is a wonderful lotion for my aging and sensitive skin. The one disappointing component is the yellow tint. It rubs off on bed linens and on my hair around my facial hair line. Would love to see this product in clear.
