Reviews For SkinCeuticals Retinol 1.0 Maximum Strength Refining Night Cream
Excellent
Excellent product! I don't use it every night or every other night. Mostly twice a week I use this retinol 1%. The next morning I can always see a visibly better skin, looks firmer and smaller pores.

Good product but don’t use too often
Skin is smoother and fine lines are diminished, but I really had to be careful not to use it too many days in a row because it would cause me to be dry and flaky.

THE BEST ON THE MARKET
THIS IS NOT MY FIRST TIME ORDERING THIS PRODUCT. I WAS USING PRESCRIPTION FORM OF THIS FOR SEVERAL YEARS AND THEN STOPPED. WHEN I STARTED AGAIN WITH SKINCEUTICALS I WENT RIGHT TO THE 1.0 BUT ONLY USING ONCE A WEEK AND THEN EVERY OTHER DAY. NOW I AM UP TO IT BEING PART OF MY NIGHTLY RITUAL. WHEN I WAS DOING IT EVERY OTHER DAY, I PUT IT OVER MY SERUM AND A LIGHT WEIGHT MOISTURIZER, BUT WAITED ABOUT AN HOUR BEFORE DOING SO. THIS ELIMINATED ANY IRRITATION. I AM NOW USING IT EVERY NIGHT AND AS DIRECTED BY SC. BEFORE ANYTHING ELSE. AFTER IT HAS ABSORBED I USE MY SERUM AND MY NIGHT CREAM. I HAVE READ THE COMPLAINTS ABOUT PEELING, THAT MEANS IT IS WORKING! REMOVING DEAD SKIN. I HAVE A VERY MILD EXFOLIATION I USE TO REMOVE THE DEAD SKIN. IF HOWEVER YOU ARE GETTING RED AND IRRITATED, CUT BACK. ALSO TRY USING A VERY LIGHT WEIGHT MOISTURIZER ON TOP OF IT. THE OTHER IMPORTANT THING IS A LITTLE GOES A LONG WAY. YEARS AGO WHEN I STARTED WITH RETINOL I SLATHERED IT ON (YOU KNOW THE MORE THE BETTER) AND WAS ADVISED BY DR. TO USE A SMALL AMOUNT AND A LIGHT HAND. I HOPE SOME OF THIS HELPS ANYONE HAVING PROBLEMS. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BRAND FOR ANYONE WANTING TO USE RETINOL. I ATTRIBUTE THE USE OF THIS PRODUCT FOR MY SKIN NOT LOOKING MY AGE OF 75. NO WRINKLES AND GLOWING SKIN.

Awesome
I love it! This is a great retinol to help with elasticity and anti-aging , and also it helps to decrease the appearance of small wrinkles and combat uneven skin tone. Retinol is part of my daily regimen.

Chalky
I've only tried this a few times, but each time, there is a chalky residue and doesn't seem to absorb into my skin.

Not good for sensitive skin
I used this product for 3 months, and it made my skin really dry and flaky. I was following the proper retinol protocol, but the product was too harsh for me. I am now on Retin-A, and that works much better. Not a fan of this product. This product might work for oily skin types.

This product is amazing!
Since having a hysterectomy, I've had cystic acne. This is worse than puberty. I've been trying various products to no avail. Then I read about SkinCeuticals Retinol 1.0. It had many positive reviews, so I thought I'd try it. Not only has it cleared up the breakouts, but my pores have shrunk, my ever-so-slight wrinkles are disappearing, and I am looking much younger. I'll take that any day! Thank you SkinCeuticals!

skinceuticals retinol 1.0
I have very sensitive skin and should have started with .5 before beginning with 1.0. It made my skin very dry and sensitive to other lotions even using it twice a week. I have begun to use it only once a week and will work my way towards more days.

Good results over time
I've used prescription tretinoin in the past and find this product to be somewhat similar. If you haven't used retinol before, start slowly and you will have good results over time!

Ready for Renewal
I am a 49 y/o bf with normal skin. My skin is usually very easy to care for. I'm finding as I age, my skin does not turn over as quickly as it use to. I've used Retinol 0.5 in the past with great results several years ago so I knew it would be better to go for the Retinol 1.0. I was correct. It has taken 10 days for my skin to begin to peel. ( in the past the Retinol 0.5 worked faster) My new skin looks and feels wonderful!! My dark spots are much lighter, blackheads in my nose are gone, fine lines around my mouth are diminished. This is the best exfoliator around for home use on African American skin. While my skin is peeling, I use a heavier moisturizer (with sunscreen of course) and I avoid prolonged sun exposure. You may experience a little itchiness, just remember not to scratch or pick your skin in an attempt to help your skin thru the peeling process.

Skin ceutical retinol 1.
One of the best retinols I've used so far. Very effective for sloughing off skin and lightening dark spots. Very strong so use with caution.

Best Retinol Cream!
This is the best over the counter retinol cream I have found. It is very strong, so I only use it every third night, but you will see results.

I like it
I'm upgrading from 0.5 to this, so far so good, I need to give it more time to see results but I was very satisfied with 0.5. Few dry spots but not that bad and after the initial "purge" the skin felt and looked amazing! I can't wait to see what another full 6 months will do!

STRONG but effective Retinol!
It has only been one week since I started using this. It is VERY potent and I am noticing much smoother results in just one week! However, I may have overdone it because my face is red and flaking....so I suggest you start with once or twice max a week. Other than that, it is great. :)
