Reviews For SkinCeuticals Retinol 0.5 Refining + Anti-Aging Night Cream
Wow, great retinol!
I use this product twice a week and have notice a huge difference in my skin texture and skin tone.

Start off slow trust the process.
26 years, combination oily skin, acne prone skin, hyperpigmentation left behind from acne, lives in tropical climate. First time using Retinol start off slow, be patient and trust the process. Start by using it once a week for 2 -3 weeks, then twice a week for 2-3 weeks and move to 3 times a week for 3 weeks. finally every other night, till you are ready for every night use. This has help with curing my acne. Hyperpigmentation fades fast and my skin turn over is much faster. Must be paired with a sunscreen. DO NOT GO INTO THE SUN while using this product. Do not put your face in a hot oven while using this product! (I did this over Christmas)

It works
It really does work. I have bought retin A for years but it is so harsh on my skin, I contacted LovelySkin and asked a few questions, of course they got right back to me as always with my answers and I immediately order the Retinol .5 SkinCeuticals and I love it.

Great retinol
Works! I had learn how much to apply this serum as I used to apply a lot which made my skin flake a lot. Once I started using a tiny bit/mind I had this product since 2 months and I'm pretty sure it will last me another 4 months or longer my skin stopped flaking instantly and I was able to use it more than once a week. My skin is more radiant and tighter than before. 5 stars I will buy again in the future :)

Haven't used it long enough to see results, but this was recommended by my dermatologist for discoloration.

This definitely is strong. Have to only use it a couple of times a week. Need to hydrate with it.

Does what it says
I could not live without this product. I have sensitive skin. It is very mild on my skin without causing redness or irritation.

Excellent Product
I use this retinol every other day and it's been so helpful at keeping my skin smooth. It helps to keep pores clear as well. A real winner!

First timer
Seems okay so far using every other night. Haven't had any major peeling either.

Very Good Product
This is the first time I used it. It is pretty strong. after I applied it my face was itchy all over. Perhaps I applied a little bite more. Please use a small amount only especially for the new users. Until your skin used to it.

Too strong for me
I think I would love this product except that my sensitive skin had a horrible reaction to it. I used it once, within 2 days my skin looked and felt like a horrible sunburn. Red and bumpy. Then it started peeling. It's been almost 2 weeks and I'm still peeling. I don't think Retinol is for me.

Great product
I purchased this product by accident! Regardless, I decided to use it after getting instructions. It was suggested that I use it once a week initially because it might irritate the skin. I was pleasantly surprised to find that there was no irritation on my skin. Because I don't want to go overboard, I'll use it 2-3 times a week. The end result for me was very smooth, almost translucent skin. I would buy this product again...on purpose!

SkinCeuticals NEVER lets you down!
Before I bought it, my mother told me « why would you pay 75$ for a retinol cream when there’s a good one that costs barely 25?! » I smiled & told her: « coz it’s Skinceuticals » :) Amazing how you start to feel the results right after the first application: your skin begin to peel- slightly not too much- and feels tighter! Careful if you have a sensitive and/or dry skin though, as it’s a little strong, meaning you will feel a tingling sensation on the first few applications, perhaps the need to scratch your face (which you should NOT do!), and your skin will get a bit dry so you will need to simultaneously use moisturizing creams & masks! Skinceuticals advises customers to start with the lower concentration, but knowing that I live in an extremely hot country, I can only use it during the winter, so I started directly with 0.5! Also avoid too much sun & light exposure, and use plenty of sunscreen, even during winter! I didn’t finish the treatment yet but I do know that Skinceuticals never lets us down :)

SkinCeuticals retinol 0.5 refining night cream
I have been using retinol 0.5 cream for more than half a year. I have super sensitive skin and my skin was dry and peeling,even I used it for just 2 or 3 times a week. No matter what moisturizer and how many layers of moisturizers I applied on my skin. I almost wanted to give up on it. However I did feel my skin was tightened and I have mature skin. Finally I decided to continue using retinol cream while applying skinceuticals intensive hyaluronic acid next to it. It makes a lot of difference. My skin is not dry anymore and has become firmer. Now I put on my retinol cream every night !

Great starter retinol!
I've been pairing this with the glycolic renewal cleanser and using both is a little too much for my skin. Haven't found the right balance between using this and the other, but will keep trying. The times that I have used this, I have been very happy with the results and would definitely recommend this product especially as a base retinol product to try out.

Favorite retinol
I love SkinCeuticals .5 Retinol. I have been using this product for the past five years and I’ve never had an issue with the strength or the application. Better to use it once a week for 2 weeks. Then 2 a week for 2 weeks then 3 times a week for 2 weeks and so on. I do wish that the container was a better design as it’s constantly leaking out of the nozzle whenever you squeeze it to apply at night but that’s really my only complaint. I upgraded to a 1% retinol and that was a little too strong for my delicate skin; downgraded back to this formula as I had to take a break after plastic surgery was healing. It’s never dried my skin out so figured I go back through a tube to recondition my skin. I like to use retinol pretty much every night when I’m on a retinol routine but the SkinCeuticals .5 is absolutely the best formula and it has the best feeling/ it feels like silk after you apply it at night. I use it with triple lipid restore on top.
