Great cell turnover
I have been using SkinMedica Retinol Complex .5 for 2 years now. It was recommended to me by my plastic surgeon's office. It helps to generate cell turnover on your face and neck. I find it to be too drying to use every day, so I use it every other day. To help with the dryness, it can cause, I have recently started using the SkinMedica HA5 Rejuvenating Hydrator. That product feels amazing on the skin.

Impressed
I got a sample of this and really thought it was a quality product. I also use prescription Retin A, but I like alternating with this. My skin feels very good the next morning, and it is a little less strong than my prescription, so alternating the two seems to help with any dryness from my prescription.

Retinol Complex 0.5
I have really sensitive skin and have not been able to find a retinol product that I can use without burning my skin. I have been using SkinMedica's Retinol Complex 0.5 for about a month now and so far so good. Very happy to find this as I really believe retinol is an important part of an anti-aging skin regimen.

Great retinol treatment
I've purchased several bottles and moved from the 0.25 concentration to 0.5. This is a very good retinol treatment that offers effective actives while stays gentle. I followed the instruction carefully and it did not irritate my skin. Do see skin texture improvement after each use.

SkinMedica Retinol Complex Great for Hands
I've been using SkinMedica Retinol Complex 0.5 on the top part of my hands for years. I'm in my 60s and do not want dark spots. Many of my friends have the age spots, and I've told them to purchase this product, it really works. Thanks to LovelySkin as well. Excellent customer service and their shipping is fast.

Why didn’t I try this sooner!
Love this!!! I had used a .25 retinol in the past and felt like it didn’t do much. This is so much better!!! My skin is looking so much clearer and smoother!! And no irritation at all!

SkinMedica Retinol Complex 0.5
I use SkinMedica Retinol Complex 0.5 as a part of my nightly skin regime. I especially like to .5 formula since I experience no irritation. It's great to use on the neck and chest area.

Love this Skinmedica Retinol .5!
I have very sensitive, acne-prone skin, and this does a great job of smoothing my skin/helping it to glow when I apply it every couple of nights. I can't use it every night or it will cause aggravation. I will certainly continue use and actually plan on buying another bottle tonight! Great value, wonderful product!

Potent!
I’ve used the SkinMedica Retinol Complex .25 formulation for the past year, and thought I’d try to integrate in a formula with more potency. But, wow, it’s strong. Lots of peeling. (My skin has never done well on the 1.0 formulations I used to try.) I’m going to use it once a week along with the .25, and see how it goes. The .25 formulation has done wonders for the appearance of my skin.

SkinMedica Retinol 0.5
I am super happy with this product! It feels smooth when applied and does not dry out my sensitive skin. I've tried other retinol creams, but this is the one I like best!

Love It
Love this retinol product although pricey, it is gentle and leaves your skin smooth, silky & doesn't irritate. I would say I am seeing some small results already and am loving the glow! Looking forward to more & more as I continue use. Start slowly and build up the retinol percentage and you will do fine. Also, it's okay to apply moisturizer 5-10 mins after your retinol and you won't have irritation.

Know why this is a staff favorite!
I have sensitive skin but this product doesn't seem to bother me at all. I started using it a couple of times a week then went to every other night. I've used it every night for the last 2-3 days and so far, so good.

SkinMedica Retinol Complex 0.5
I like to experiment with Retinol. So far, SkinMedica is the best one. Of course, all SkinMedica products are perfect, at least for my normal skin. I use retinol 3-4 times a month at nighttime with SkinMedica or Epionce moisturizer at nighttime. In me morning, I use my Luna Foreo or Smart Profile face Brush. The result is amazing. Allow yourself 2-3 months to see the results, and you won’t regret it!

Long time user
I have been using this product for years, but I have purchased it at a derm office. I happily found LovelySkin. The price is much better and service was excellent. I will definitely order more from LovelySkin.

Excellent product
Initially tried the 1.0 Retinol which was too strong for my skin. I then ordered the 0.5 strength which I love!! I have used it for approximately 6 weeks every other night and have already seen an improvement in my skin, it has cleared up most of my breakouts!! I follow the Retinol with LaRoche- Posay Toleriane Fluide and also the Double Repair Moisturizer which I also love!! Highly recommend all three products!

Love this stuff!!
I have been using this retinol for about 3 years now per recommendation of my laser specialist. My skin is so soft, smooth and I rarely break out anymore. I have a more even skin tone and barely any lines at 37! I look younger than most of my friends. I also have very sensitive skin, and this is more like a lotion, and my face loves it. Highly recommend!! Finally got my sisters and mom to join, and they love it as well. You won’t regret it!

My very sensitive skin loves this!
I was a bit nervous to try this because my skin is so sensitive and will get red blotches quickly if a product is too harsh. I’ve been using this product for months now and have not had one reaction and my skin has never looked so good!
