Best retinol product
Love this retinol cream. It’s not too harsh. Some products cause excessive redness and peeling but this one doesn’t.

Amazing product!
This retinol product is amazing. It's so great that it comes in a 0.5, so its perfect for people who have never used any retinol products. It doesn't over dry your skin. I love all the SkinMedica products!!

It works!
I love SkinMedica. If you are lookin for a good retinol, this is it. It's strong, so do not try it on your whole face all at once for your first time!

Amazing!
I've used SkinMedica for years but had never tried the Retinol Complex .5. I followed the instructions by using twice a week and increasing as my skin tolerated. It does cause flaking but I use a moisturizing facemask when this is visible and it keeps the flaking under control. This product has made a big difference in the redness and blotchy spots. It will last a long time because you use so little so infrequent. I highly recommend.

The difference has been quick!
My dermatologist recommended this product after I’ve had an allergic reaction to other retinols, and after only three weeks, my skin loves it and is noticeably brighter with zero blemishes. I currently use it every other night (rotating with Vitamin C) and plan to build up to nightly use.

Glowing skin
Mixing the use of this product with SkinMedica Retinol 0.25 once a week of 0.5 for 1st 4 weeks, and build up from there. Found no major irritation. My skin becomes more supple and glowing.

Great results!
I love this product! I use it nightly (had to work up to that) and combine it with other products such as a moisturizer or glycolic acid depending on my skins needs. Pores appear tighter and complexion is brighter. This is a staple with my nightly anti-aging skin routine.

My personal preference
I can’t seem to go wrong with SkinMedica’s retinol products. I’ve worked my way my up from .25. After trying other products ranging from modest to quite costly I always return to SM. I’ve found the product goes on smoother than others which is just a personal preference for me. Smooth application and sinks into the skin with ease What more can I ask for?! A+

Great product!
I love that I don’t peel with this retinol cream. I use .5 nightly and wouldn’t consider not using it.

What a difference
What a difference this SkinMedica retinol 0.5 has made in my skin. My face is a lot brighter, pores seem smaller and skin smoother. I started at 3 times per week I’m using it now 5 days a week on my face and neck. Always use with moisturizer. No fragrance which I appreciate, Goes on smooth and creamy. Will definitely be reordering.

effective
I have been using the subscription-based tretinoin and I kept breaking out for some reason. I finally stopped using it and purchased this skinmedica retinol. This product works better than the tretinoin I have been using. I noticed that it was powerful enough to see my skin starting to turn over in 3 days. I am impressed and will continue to buy this product. This is my third skinmedica product and I believe that this brand is popular for a legitimate reason.

best retinol I have found
Most Retinols are too strong for my skin, but not the .25 or .5 from SkinMedica!

Happy with this product
I have had no problem with the .5 Retinol irritating my skin. My skin is generally dry. So, I let it sink in for about 15 min then hydrate with an HA gel. Right now I am using the retinol every other night.
