My Skin Loves This!
Have been using Skinmedica Retinol on my skin every other night for a year now. I have graduated to the one percent and have had no drying, redness or flaking issues. I use a night cream on top of that also. My skin is very smooth and moist. Faithful use will be my forever routine.

Good retinol
Love this product! Have been using it for at least a year and a half. I stopped using it for a while and my skin did not look as good.

Love the Skin Medica line!
I love Skin Medica, and I really noticed a difference in my skin brightness once I started using the products. My facialist recommended it highly, and I have been buying it ever since. I ran out of retinol, and I could see a difference when I ran out. I highly recommend this product. I know it can be costly, but as we age, this product is helping to reduce fine lines and smooth out my complexion.

Strong but it works!
First time for me to try this and I use it slowly starting by once a week. It is pretty strong but I think it works and I can see the difference after using it for weeks!

Burned my face
Have been using SkinMedica .5 level retinol for several years. Tried the 1.0 & it’s burned my face badly (have mostly been in the house, wear sunscreen & a sunhat when outdoors in daylight after 9:00 am). My face is swollen, itchy, peeling & red. Threw it out and going back to the .5 level.

Skinmedica Retinol 1.0
Works well for me. I’m not too consistent with usage and it’s not too harsh or drying to my skin.

Great
This is the best retinol that I have used. It is easy to control how much you want to pump out of the bottle, absorbs quickly and works great on the skin! I will continue to use.

with two applications completely peeled my skin
I have been using retinol for many years and decided to change brands and use this product after checking a review. I used it twice an my face skin completely peeled for several days. I had to buy a CICA product to renew my skin and it took almost two weeks to stop peeling. I haven't tried the product again because I don't know if the peeling was normal or is it an allergic reaction.

Strong but gentle retinol
I moved up from .5 to 1.0 retinol without flakiness or irritation.

Effective Retinol I Rotate with Other Retinoids
I like to vary my retinoids and this one does well in rotation of these. I trust this brand.

Retinol Complex
Have not used as frequently as I planned as of yet due to home emergency but still saw positive results in the short time period of use. Looking forward to starting my anticipated regular use. Have used this on the past with good results.

Gentle
This is my first 1.0 retinol and so far I'm really liking it. I started on a .5 from another brand and experienced peeling and redness. This seems more gentle and easy on the skin with no adjustment period.

Great Product!
My skin looks much smoother than prior to using this product. I have even had people ask me what I use and what I've changed in my skincare routine.

Good Product, but pricey
I liked this product, but I prefer a tretintion precription. The price is definitely better.

Improved skin texture
I’ve been using SkinMedica Retinol for years and the number one benefit is smoother skin texture. I started with .5 strength twice weekly and now use 1.0 every night. It’s affordable and works very well.

very strong retinol
Perhaps I should have gotten a lighter dose of this retinol product. I am not new to using retinoids and I wanted to try this because it was more affordable than some others. My whole face peeled and it took a little over a week to recover. However I will say, after the peeling was over, my face looked fantastic! I recommend started with one of the lighter doses.

Excellent Product
Pleasantly surprised by this product. It has a strength to it for over the counter retinol that similar products don’t match. I use it every other night. I hope to work up to nightly. I do have very sensitive skin and this works for my skin. I did get a slight peel but not in a lizard sort of way. I know it is working to renew my skin. The peeling has now subsided. Will repurchase.

The Best Retinol
I have used this product for years & absolutely love it. I have tried to use cheaper retinols & more expensive they just don’t compare. The others doesn’t seem to have the same result of brightening smoothing making lines less prominent
