Love this!

Love this retinol. I've had no peeling or anything like that. Makes me wonder if it's really working? I haven't seen any changes but still feels wonderful on my face. Expensive but if it works it's worth it!

Awesome retinol

My dermatologist suggested I switch from my prescription retin a to this because it has a better delivery system to the skin and it’s less irritating. He was right. I don’t have all the side effects like the dry peeling irritated skin but I’m still able to use the strong 1% to get the max benefits.

Mild for a 1.0 and not drying

Like so many of us, I have tried numerous retinol products. This one is exceptionally mild for a 1% retinol product and it doesn't overly dry my skin or cause redness or splotchiness. I do go ahead and add a moisturizer (HA5 by Skinmedica) after a few minutes of letting it soak in. I am 70 and my skin needs the moisture.

Absolutely Love

I love the SkinMedica Retinol. Previously I had been using the .5 and noticed a difference, but not quite the results I was hoping for. Bumping up to the 1.0 did the trick. I use once at night and wake up to my skin feeling fresh and tight. Significant reduction in wrinkles & I believe it has helped with my pore size.

SkinMedica Retinol Complex 1.0

I had been using the 0.5 Retinol cream and thought I could bump up to the 1.0 unfortunately it was too strong for my skin and within 2 days I was peeling full on from the nose and chin area and proceeded to peel for the next week or so over my entire face. When applying it, I never felt any harsh or burning, the lotion is nice but before I knew it I was peeling again. I tried to reduce it to once a week but still peeled so am going back to the 0.5 retinol which works fine for me. I like that these formulas didn't make me break out like other brands have.

Love my retinol

I’ve been using this retinol 1.0 and I love how my skin looks. I added it to my regimen 3 times a week over the last two years and my skin looks great. My doctor had me try AlphaRet once, and honestly I missed my SkinMedica retinol. I got back to using it even before finishing the AlphaRet.

Glow Is Real

The product will exfoliate the skin over time leaving you with a radiant glow. My skin is used to retinol, however if you were new to it use a lesser strength and a small amount.

The Best Retinol Product

While I've used this a few times a week for years, I've really ramped up with it recently and use it nightly now (per my esthetician's advice.) It's gentle enough for me to do this and the results are fabulous. A little goes a long way. SkinMedica has products that deliver great results.

Not for me

This is the end of my third week, and my skin has not looked this bad in a very long time. I expected the peeling, but my skin has never been this sensitive/painful, and now that the peeling has slowed, I have hyperpigmentation over both cheeks. Overall, I have not had good luck with SkinMedica products.

Love!

I love this Retinol. I can tell a difference in my skin since I started using this. I started out using 0.25 then moved up to the 0.50 and finally to this one. I needed to take it slowly so my sensitive skin could adjust.

This product is wonderful!

I’m 70 years “young” and still have occasional breakouts. This product keeps my skin looking clear and glowing!

Great product

I started using SM Retinol about a year ago and it is definitely a great product. However, be very careful. My dermatologist told me to use it every night, but because my skin is very sensitive, in the beginning it caused some irritation. I only use it every other night now and it works for me.

I am obsessed with the Retinol from Skinmedica. It is SUPER moisturizing and lightweight.

Great retinol!

I love this retinol! I am an aesthetician, so I have tried many products! I also have acne-prone skin. This has worked wonders for my face, with my husband always commenting on how soft my skin is! Now going on my 3rd bottle!

If you know, you know.

If you’ve used anything from SkinMedica, you know how great their products are. This retinol is no exception. I started with 0.5 and advanced to this one. It’s literally a game changer for my skin! Don’t hesitate, hit buy!

Best retinol

Retinol is proven to refine fine lines and wrinkles. SkinMedica has different levels of retinol, and I’ve finally worked up to 1.0. Like all SkinMedica products, this works.
