Reviews For SkinCeuticals Retinol 0.5 Refining + Anti-Aging Night Cream
Not for me
My skin got so dry and flaky on this. Could not use in summer - skin got all red. I think I need a .25 strength and gradually work up in strengths.

Love this product!
I've been using retinol for a while, and decided to try skin ceuticals retinol a little over a year ago, and have not stopped since. I just began using the 0.5 after using 0.3, and I'm pleased with adjustment. Highly recommend this product!

SkinCeuticals = always a winner!
I recently made the switch from Sunday Riley retinol to SkinCeuticals. Although the strength (0.5) is the same, this seems to be stronger. After noticing some dryness after using it, I sandwiched with moisturizer until my skin adjusted. No worries, that just means the retinol is doing it's job!

I love SkinCeuticals!
You cannot go wrong using SkinCeuticals - basically any item! I love this retinol. I use it every other day and sometimes I might use it every day for a short while. If you build up to it, it will not cause irritation. My skin looks clearer, younger, plumper, and brighter.

An Awesome Retinol
SkinCeuticals retinol really delivers results. I started with 0.3. I have been using 0.5 for over a year and hope to increase to 1% soon. Applying a moisturizer or epidermal repair 30 minutes later really helps decrease irritation especially during the winter months.

Gentle & Effective
This retinol product is not too strong for my fairly sensitive & dry skin. I apply it every other night before bed and I do believe it helps with my skin's appearance. I would recommend!

Very Strong!
This is a potent product but it works. I do recommend easing into it as they instruct on the directions because it can cause a little redness when you begin using it. My experience is that it clears fast and you begin to see some great results. I use a thin layer so a little goes a long way. I routinely use the SkinCeuticals Phyto Corrective Masque as a complement to this product.

Refining
This retinol has made a huge difference in my skin. My pores are so much smaller and it really helps prevent fine lines. Wonderful product!

Quite gentle
I am starting the night cream at a lower percentage and will hopefully move up in a couple months. This retinol has not caused any problems with dryness.

Love it…
This was recommended to me by my dermatologist last year in November. I have been using it since then, from .3 to .5 and will be 1.0.

SkinCeuticals Retinol 0.5 Cream
Being 69 years old with very dry skin, fine lines, and wrinkles, I spoke with a consultant at Lovely Skin and asked what retinol product to use. She suggested the SkinCeuticals Retinol 0.5 cream at this time. I do use it about 3 times per week but since I live in upstate New York, I sometimes skip a week as my skin is very dry. I do like that I had some peeling on my face so I know the product is working. I would purchase this again as I liked the results.

Best Retinal Ever Used!
I am a huge fan of SkinCeuticals but this retinol is by far the best. I had been using the .3 and up'd my game to the .5 and I am so glad I did. My skin is definitely showing the difference...and it's in a good way!

Retinol .05 is Great!
I started retinol a few months ago, and slowly worked myself up to 0.5. Right now I am doing it 3 times a week. I am slowly seeing a little change especially with lightly my dark spots. Slow and steady.

Very Strong!
I think the quality of this product is great. However, beware that it is VERY strong. I have used retinol .5 in other brands with no issues. However, this one caused constant peeling (even after diluting with moisturizer, using sunscreen and applying less frequently). If you are new to the Skincueticals brand I would recommend starting with the .3 even if you are used to higher retinol percentages.
