non-prescription vs. prescription Retin A
I used to use Retin A and it works pretty good, but due to the extreme high cost of it, I switched to this non-prescription one instead. So far, I've been using it (along with Obagi #5 fx Blender) for 2 weeks. It hasn't peel my skin like Retin A. I guess because I used it with Obagi #5 blender, which might helps from skin peeling. So far, I like how my skin looks!

Smooth Skin, Need a better Dispenser
I think this is a really good retinol. My skin is very smooth after using it. I can feel the tingling when applied, but I haven't had a bad reaction, so far. My only gripe is the dispenser. It is very awkward to use. You should be able to hold in one hand and pump, but it takes some extra coordination. It comes out ok, but I don't feel I have much control over it and my hand loses grip sometimes. They should update the dispenser.

great price point
I've been told over and over by my dermatologist to use retinol and can see the results as it helps to fade sun spots and fine lines. I use this product mixed with Obagi Blender before bed. Great price point for this too!

I like it!
So far, I am pleased with this product. It goes on nice and doesn't leave my face feeling greasy or sticky.

effective
My skin became so smooth after using this. It did peel out my skin, but not irritating at all.

Obagi 360 Retinol
I have used Obagi products in the past and have not been crazy about them. However, I decided to try the retinol, and I do like it. I will continue to use. I did overuse the first week or two, and it did dry my skin, totally my fault. Now, I use every day or every other day and am happy.

Strong
Good retinol. However, I should have started with the .5 instead of 1.0 - it’s drying my face. Overall, it is doing its job, but I have to put on more moisturizer.

A little strong for my taste
Love the .5 retinol formula by Obagi. I’m having a tough time adjusting to a stronger strength. Good product otherwise.

Very strong!
This product works, but I would recommend starting with the 0.5 strength because the 1.0 is very strong! Start slowly!

Good Value, Effective Product
This is as effective as any other retinol 1%. It's less expensive, and Obagi is considered ''the gold standard'' of skincare - what's not to like? As with any retinol, the faithful use of an intensive moisturizer (and ideally, an HA intensifier) is crucial. This product, like any retinol, is drying, and can cause flaking. I use an intensifier and a very strong night moisturizer and have never had any flakiness or redness at all.

Great results so far!
I've only been using the Obagi360 Retinol a couple of weeks and only about 3 times a week because it irradiated my face right at first. So far, I am loving the results! My face seems more supple and less noticeable wrinkles, especially around my lips/smile area!! I hoping to increase usage and see even more results as my face becomes use to the retinol 1.0.

Reduces Fine Lines
Works great in reducing fine lines, especially around the eye area. It doesn’t do much for acne though. I found that prescription retinoids work better for acne.

Good product for the cost
This is a great product for the money. This retinol goes on easy and causes minimal irritation to my skin. I have sensitive skin and this product does not irritate my face.

Great Retinol
I have been using this for over a year and seen great results. It's not as strong as Retina-a so you can use it more often. I haven't had as many breakouts.

obagi360 retinol.1
I have used Retin A .05 cream for many years, I was trying to use the stronger Retin A but it was too strong and irritated my skin even using it every other day. I saw this and decided to give it a try. I'm not seeing much more improvement but it definitely is much more gentle. I will continue to use this and hopefully, it will continue to improve my skin.

Gentle Retinol
My skin had never looked so good as it did after starting with this Obagi retinol 1.0. Pores closed, decongested the pores as well and a big plus that it seems to totally soak up the oils and leave my skin with a matte finish before applying makeup. However, I had very minimal flaking only for a few days and no redness so I was convinced I needed a stronger retinol and switched to 1 well known for its potency. Now my face is almost always red and it peels daily even after 9 weeks, so I’m considering going back to this one. This also clears my daughters preteen acne like nothing else when used nightly. She too has no irritation, just use sunscreen before going outside always!

Obagi360 Retinal 1.0
Love the product. Would have given a 5 star review, but it is very hard to get the product out of the the container it comes in. This may be intentional, so you don't use much however it requires a lot of pressure and strength to get a small amount out of the container.

Obagi360 Retinol 1.0
Very gentle to the skin. I have used both brands, Skinmedica and Obagi. I personally prefer the SkinMedica Retinol 1.0. I like the peeling effect, and it seems that SkinMedica is a stronger product.

Obagi retinol
This is a strong retinol. A little goes a long way. First time using this Obagi product. Made my facial skin peel. However, it does seem to minimize lines and crepey skin.
