Favorite Retinol
Love the consistency and finish of this retinol! NOT greasy, not shiny. Great for oily or congested skin. Very lightweight, smooth finish. Doesn't overly dry out skin either. My favorite!

Skin Changing
I have just introduced this product into my skin regimen as my skin could not tolerate other retinoid products. My skin totally tolerates this product! I am now able to benefit from the usage of a retinoid without having a sensitive reaction. I highly recommend.

Great!
I have been using this an entire year and it is the best for a night time cap. My skin has changed so much using this. It is gentle enough for every type of skin.

Youth in a bottle
I have tried a few other Retinol products that felt like they burned my face and caused weeks of peeling skin. This goes on so smooth and soft, and I haven't experienced the peeling that I did with regular retinol products. I like that this doesn't dry out my face but still provides all the benefits. I use about 3 times a week and the tube lasts a long time. Love the results I'm seeing with this!

Bitter Sweat
Immediately upon arrival I was excited and to try this gentle formula of Retin A. It glided on smoothly and my skin surface felt like silk. After several hours my skin felt irritated. I am allergic to Ragweed and the product contains several forms of Chamomile which is in the family of Ragweed. Oh how I wish I were not allergic to Chamomile as this product was everything anyone could ask for in a Gentle Retin A product. Obagi please make your products without Chamomile and future products with sage. IF YOU ARE NOT ALLERGIC TO RAGWEED you will love this product and never look for another Retin A.

I have been using this product for about a month now as it came highly recommended for me to use along the the Obagi RX C-Serum to lighten my dark spots. I have sensitive skin and needed something good to moisturize my skin while using hydroquinone. I use every night after washing my face and it goes on like silk! I've never felt anything like this before on my skin and my complexion and pores are feeling and looking smoother.

Gentle
If you are in search of a gentle retinol, this is your product. I still use a harsher one 2 nights a week, but this is great for nightly use.

Gentle Effective Retinol
I purchased this based on the recommendation of a dermatologist. I don't handle retinols well but this is very gentle but still effective. I even use it under my eyes and can see the difference after one week. It has improved the lines and crepey skin under my eyes and my eyes no longer crinkle when I smile. Thank you LovelySkin for the fast and free shipping. I live in SC and my orders are always delivered in 2-3 days.

Great retinol, no irritation.
All the benefits of retinol without the irritation. I am able to use this all over my face and neck without the irritation that other retinol products caused. The texture is a little different, almost velvety, and absorbs well. After a few weeks of nightly use, I can see improvements in my fine lines and have noticed an overall smoother skin texture. I will continue to purchase this product.

Excellent product but not my favorite
This is a fantastic product to gently ease your skin toward a more intense regimen of using tretinoin, for sensitive skin, or for long term use on more sensitive areas like the neck and under the eyes. The reason I gave it 4 stars not 5 is because I don't like the feel of dimethicone on my skin. I also didn't like that I had to cut the tube open to get a significant remainder of the product out when I had used most of it. If you like the feeling of dimethicone, you will probably love this one.

This stuff is liquid gold!
I’ve never tolerated retinol well, but this stuff is a game changer! It goes on so creamy and smooth. It seriously feels like butter! I have sensitive skin and never had a reaction with Retivance. I can even apply it to my neck and chest. My favorite Obagi product by far!

THE ACTUAL BEST!
I’ve been using over the counter retinol for a few years now, but wanted something a little stronger. This is the absolute best retinoid that works with my sensitive skin. I saw an improvement in my skin after only a few weeks!
