Pretty good
This cream may be too strong for me as I can only use it 3 times a week. Otherwise my skin becomes too sensitive.

Try this
I was using another 1.0 brand and this is so much better. No dryness if you make sure to follow directions. I use my serums then this, then I layer my moisturizer over this. I have had no issues whatsoever. I still only use 3 times a week.

Favorite Retinol Product
I've tried other products, including more expensive ones, and this is my favorite. It goes on nice and smooth and does not irritate my skin as others have. Will be sticking with this product long term!

Great 1.0 Retinol Cream...
I have been using the 1.0 Retinol Cream and love it. It does not burn and goes on smoothly. It has a nice smell also!

Better than the .5
I decided to move up from the .5 to this. I was worried about skin irritation but so far it has been fine!

Yes for me!
This Retinol really works. All the other Retinols did nothing for me. I already notice that my skin has changed — smoother, brighter and a decrease in lines. I do have to be careful as it does causing dryness in the winter, but sometimes I just switch the retinol dosage to be a little less in the winter months.

Wonderful product
I have very sensitive skin. I started with a concentration of 0.5 and saw a difference on my skin. My skin feels firmer. Once I was able to use the 0.5 every day, I switched to 1. 0. I often use it with a moisturizer. I’m using this every 3 days until my skin gets used to it. Doing well until now.

SkinMedica Retinol Complex 1.0
I love the product. I mix a little with my moisturizer so it doesn't dry out my skin.

One of my favorites in the Skin Medica line
This was the first product that I bought when I started using SkinMedica. It was recommended to me by the esthetician in my plastic surgeon's office. It makes a big difference. I then started to use other products by SkinMedica. Now, it's the only brand that I put on my face.

Favourite Retinol
I have been using for several years. Started with .5 and moved up to 1.0. I have very sensitive skin and this is the only retinol I can tolerate. I like to mix with my night moisturiser to evenly distribute and not use too much. I highly recommend. Worth the price. Great results.

Too harsh for my skin
I love SkinMedica products! My skin has never looked so good. I have been using the Retinol .25 strength and decided to try the 1.0 strength. First time I used it my skin peeled for days. So I will go back to a lower strength. I'm giving 5 stars because although it was too strong for me, it is a very good product.

Remarkable results
Skinmedica retinol is a true champion that brings remarkable results to aging skin. I actually have used this retinol but not faithful. I don't have wrinkles but I heard great things about retinol and I wanted to try it. I examined few other brands but I liked what I saw on the ingredient list of Skinmedica. It has some very good things in it that nourishes the skin. It did make my skin red- like when I first started using it but I did not peel at all. As I said before I simply did not use this every consistantly on my face. It took me over a year to finish a tube. I would forget to use it for many nights on end not because I thought less of the product, I simply forgot about it. Why I am saying now that this retinol is a champion that brings remarkable results is because I bought another tube and gived it as a gift to one of my co-workers who had deep lines on her face and a rather poorly nourished dull looking dry withered up skin. This bad boy has completely transformed her skin in such an amazing way in a short frame of time. I couldn't believe my eyes and she is extremely happy and greatful that I gived it to her. She uses it every night with absolutely no irritation. The deep lines are mostly gone. Her skin looks brighter and healthier. She looks much more youthful than before. Made me want to try using retinol again and faithful this time around, atleast it may help even out any discoloration I have on my face because this stuff does everything. Works wonderous for wrinkles that's for sure and may not be as irritating for most because of the soothing ingredients packed in this product.

I've been using this retinol for years. It is effective yet doesn't irritate my skin like other retinol products can.

Best retinol I’ve tried
Was using 0.5 for a while but wanted to bump it up. I alternated every other day to let my skin adjust and now using it every day. There was a little dryness/flaking the first week but now my skin is looking great. Looks clear and smaller pores. I just make sure to wear spf during the day and moisturize.

Your skin really does need Retinol!
I began using SkinMedica Retinol Complex 1.0 after taking a break from Retin A. I'm experiencing sensitivity and flaking skin and have changed my nighttime routine to apply it three times per week rather than every day. Yes, I should have followed the instructions that advised first-time users to do just that. Too soon to share results...
