Less drying on my sensitive skin

Love this one more than the other brand!
Long time user of another medical grade retinol, but I will continue to buy this brand. Love the pump over the other brand’s tube. I seem to use just the right amount instead of wasting it. It’s also so much more gentle with no irritation on my sensitive, eczema-prone maturing skin (45). I’m so glad I gave this a try and LovelySkin offers more sales on this brand which is a plus!

Just perfect
Retin-A is too irritating for my skin so this is a nice compromise. The results take more time, but the product is non drying, non irritating and a great addition to my regular night time routine.

Good results so far
I’ve worked up to 0.5% strength and use this product 2-3 times per week, hoping to get to 3-4 times per week. I’ve noticed my skin is more sensitive when using other products containing retinol when advancing to this strength but want more benefit as I age with the understanding that this is normal. So far so good.

I love SkinMedica Retinol Cream!
I got this retinol cream from my medical spa, and I started buying this here on lovelyskin.com. I highly recommend this retinol cream. I use it 3-4x a week. It helps with my hormonal acne. I've been using this for 3 years now, and it keeps my skin glowy and soft. I also notice that if I don't use this regularly, my hormonal acne flares up.

Works well, so far
I have been using this product for about 2 weeks now. I like the smell, it isn't too strong. I have not gotten much as far as results, I will continue to use and hopefully start to see some lightening of my sunspots.

Good retinol cream! I tend to get flaky skin when used in the winter though

Great product!
I had been using prescription retinol for approx 30 years (!) before noticing it was starting to irritate my skin. I found this product at my esthetician and am so glad I did! It works just as well without the drying and irritation . I order all of my skincare products from lovely skin- the rewards, expedited/free delivery, quality reviews… a great site :)

Level up
I have been using the .25 for a couple years and thought it was time to try a higher strength. As expected, it took some adjustment, but it’s great! Bottle lasts a long time.

Great product
I have been using this on my mature and sensitive skin for several years, just had an appointment with my Derm she said my skin looks great, I believe it has to do with SkinMedica.

Yes!
I alternate this .5 and the 1.0, using each every other day. The 1.0 was getting a little harsh on my aging skin, but I didn’t find the .5 did the job as well, so VIOLA, now I get happy medium effects of .75 overall. This is the best pump container, it hasn’t failed on me, yet, works til the last drop.

Worth the price!
I have used several different retinol products, some of which seemed to do nothing. This one actually works, though at first I did have some sensitivity (I had been using a different product which said it contained 1 percent retinol, but I wonder). This did cause initial dryness and itchiness, but within a week of using every other day I was able to tolerate using it every night. I’ve noticed lightening of dark spots and a refining of pores. I’ve used other SkinMedica products but this is the first of their retinol I’ve used. It really does pay to use medical grade products.

Wrinkle Ease
I have been using this retinol product for a year now. It is mild and hasn't caused any redness or scaly patches. If it seems too harsh in the beginning stages of using it I reccomend putting a thin layer of moisturizer on first and then layering on the retinol. It seems to be diminishing fine lines in my face

love this retinol
I used retinol for several months to help build up my tolerance before starting a prescription tretinoin. I noticed an improvement in the texture and appearance of my skin after consistent use of this product. Also notice decrease in appearance of lines and wrinkles!

Effective Retinol Serum
I have used this product for the last year and it makes my skin smooth and less fine lines. I always put on moisturizer with it or my skin will get dry and flaky.
