Strong stuff!
I have had a hard time adjusting to this strength although I had used .3% retinol of another brand for 8 months. I started out only at once a week and gradually worked up to every other night over two months and I am still seeing an ugly peel. I am now planning to dial it back in frequency again to see if that helps. I do realize peeling is part of the process but I thought my skin skin would have adjusted after 2-3 months. I do like the pump bottle since it keeps the product fresh and it dispenses a perfect amount.

Excellent Product
I've tried other retinol products, but I keep returning to this one! Never going to switch again.

Work your way up to the 1.0
It took me quite awhile to get my skin to accept the 1.0 strength after moving up from the .5. But now that it's used to it, I love it! Try combining the Retinol with your night time moisturizer while first using.

Great product
This is a very good skin turnover but proceed carefully as it can cause skin to peel and be red. I went from .5 to the 1.0 and only use the 1.0 twice a week.

A win!
As with the other products from SkinMedica, this is an amazing anti aging product! Make sure to use moderately if it's your first time using retinol or try the .5 strength to begin with

Perfectly Wonderful Retinol!
SkinMedica’s Retinol Complex 1.0 is both efficient yet gentle! I used Obagi 5, before, but it became too strong for my skin. SkinMedica’s Retinol. It removes the dead skin cells without irritating my sensitive skin.

Nightly regimen
I have been using this product for years. Sometimes I use it every night, other times I switch around with other products such as TNS Advanced. My only complaint is that it doesn’t reduce or remove milia. Otherwise I get good results.

Great product
First time using retinol, I’m 27 and it has helped so much with acne and fine lines. Will definitely keep using.

Love!
Loved this retinol. I am no longer using since I’m pregnant, but used it up until I found out. I used it 2-3x times a week and I noticed a huge difference. Can’t wait to use again in a few months!

Highly effective
This is my second bottle of Retinol Complex 1.00 and my skin loves it! It's pretty powerful stuff so I mix a couple of pumps in with my EltaMD Barrier repair cream every other night and my skin responds very well to it. It has so many yummy ingredients in there! But it doesn't get a full 5 stars because it is very strong and I don't think most people could handle it applied directly on bare skin.

SkinMedica Retinol Complex 1.0
Started using this about a 60 days ago and am up to 3-4x/week. Goes on smoothly and my skin does not look irritated. I use it at night before going to bed. My skin is noticeably smoother. I think this is the best Retinol product on the market!

Seems effective
I dialed up from the 0.5 to see more results and this led to more peeling around my eyes, but a manageable amount. I'm still not getting rid of milia and wondering what to do for that?
