SkinMedica
I love SkinMedica products. Use many. Unfortunately this retinol didn’t work out for me. And it’s not because it was bad it just that my skin is very sensitive. I will stick to my SkinMedica .5 retinol. But if you can handle it go ahead and give it a try!

SkinMedica Retinol Complex 1.0
Good retinol product, I would suggest to start off with 0.5 retinol then move to 1.0. It’s better to apply it at night and use sunscreen regularly during the day

Retinol 1.0
I have used this product for quite some time. I am 74 years old and never had a problem with it. The last time I purchased some the bottling was different. It was in a tube. Since then I've had problems with itching. Don't know for sure if it's the reinol or the Vit C serum I use. Was the packaging changed?

I love this retinol!
I am reaching into my 30’s and trying to incorporate some anti aging products into my skincare regimen. I use this on top of a hyaluronic serum to start off with as I ease into retinol. I did peel and had some sensitivity (Thank goodnesss we’re in quarantine) but the results speak for itself. I wouldn’t start off with 1% retinol if ur beginners but I use this on top of serums so I find its less potent that way. In all, it’s great retinol and does the job. Little pricey but worth it if there's great ingredients .

Great retinol product!
I purchase this strength and mix it with an equal amount of my moisturizer for the perfect night cream. It lasts longer and makes my skin glow!

Best Non-Prescription Retinol
I alternate this with my prescription retinol, which is too drying when used nightly. This product is so effective, without being drying. My skin always looks amazing the morning after I use it.

This works!
I have used retinol products many times. When I don't use it my skin starts to sag. I decided to try SkinMedica instead of other brands. What an improvement! My skin is almost flawless and I am 60 years old! I get tons of compliments. It does make my skin peel so I use it once a week for now with great results (and exfoliate gently). I will try to go to twice a week and so on. It's fantastic!

SkinMedica Retinol Complex 1.0
I have been using this product for quite some time and have always been happy with it. It's a regular part of my face routine and can't be without it. Best Retinol OTC product around and reasonably priced.

Retinol
Only been using this for close to a month. Twice a week was too much so I’ve been only doing once a week, and evening only. Make sure you wear sunscreen every day because you will be overly sun-sensitive while using this.

Jury is still out
I use a few products in this line. I successfully completed a vial of the 0.5 Retinol without issue, so I then ordered this. Even after several weeks I cannot use this daily. It causes peeling in certain areas that is almost like a sunburn. I end up standing in the bathroom peeling it with my tweezers. However, I am not ready to give up!

Great retinol
This is a great product. My skin looks so smooth with healthy glow the morning after using it. It is very strong and I had to scale back on uses per week. My skin got flaky and started peeling. I use it 3 days a week right now.

Best retinol
This is the best retinol product I have used. It does the job without overdoing it. I use the 1.0 without any burning or redness. My skin stays exfoliated with daily routine using retinol at night, but never visibly peels or flakes.

Amazing!
I started using skin medica .25 retinol and then purchased the .50. Finally, I purchased the1.0 and I’m glad I started with the .25 and graduated to this. It is very effective and I can’t believe how much my skin has improved. Great product!

Great product
As I have aged I have found that the prescription Retin A has been too strong for me and irritated my skin too much. I use many of the products from Skin Medica and decided that I would try their Retin A since I was familiar with their line. I have been delighted with the results and find that I have no irritation. I'll definitely continue with it.

Great retinol!
SkinMedica Retinol Complex was recommended to me by my doctor. I have been using it for about 6 weeks and I am happy with the results. My skin is gradually improving!

Better than prescription products. Use it three times a week to keep dryness away. Will continue to use this product.

Great retinol
I find this particular retinol to be more hydrating than that of another similar brand I just used. I also like the pump so that you get just the right amount of product. I’ve been using this strength for several months now but still have to give myself a night or two off from it during the week or my face becomes too sensitive. Other than that I love that is has no scent, absorbs quickly and has a creamy texture. My skin is so soft and glowing when I use this on a regular basis. Definitely recommend as a retinol product.

SkinMedica Retinol Complex 1.0
This is my favorite retinol. When I explore other options I always come back to SkinMedica. I apply it 3-4 times a week at night after I have applied all of my night time products. It is best to wait at least 5 minutes to apply this after your other products. It does not irritate my sensitive skin. My skin looks nice and moisturized in the morning.
