Effective and Gentle
I am a loyal user of Avene Retrinal + 0.1. I couldnt be more happy with the results of this product as well as how gentle it is. I have a history of having sensitivity issues with other retinols Ive used. However when I came across this product and after my initial use, which was first recommended to me by my Dermatologist, I knew I found the product that my face would tolerate. Since then Ive educated myself even more on retinols. Please be assured, that if your skin does not tolerate retinols that well, PLEASE give this product a chance to work for you. Due to the different ingredients in Avene Retrinal and other retinols, it processes differently on your skin. I TRULY believe THIS is the difference it had on mine to allow it be so gentle and work for me. I had ZERO issues since day one, and even if I did, it would have been acceptable As with some, it might take a few (spread out applications) to adapt to your skin. I am SO very pleased with this product. I use daily in the evening after cleansing, and exfoliation and the results are amazing. Thank you LovelySkin for offering this product. My skin would be lost without it. Looking youthful has never been so fun.

Effective, great results
Retrinol products are often too severe for my face, causing redness and peeling. This product delivers the same retrinol benefits without the irritation. Love it!

Gentle Product with Retinol
I use two different creams and a cream cleanser from this company for dry skin which were prescribed by my dermatologist. My dermatologist tells me I am unable to use any soap products. Avene products are expensive but extremely gentle and soothing for sensitive/irritated skin. I just started using Avene Retrinal +0.1 on my clean damp face in the evening. A little goes a long way. I only felt a slight tingling/burning initially for mere seconds and then not again. I believe it is making my skin firmer and more vibrant by sloughing off some of the top layers of skin.

I have tried a couple retrinals and they all made my face red and burned it. This one is very gentle. Yet, it does the job!

I L-O-V-E this product! No more burning from other Retinol products for me! This creme goes on smoothly and takes such a small amount to do the job! Ive noticed a difference in not only the texture of my skin, but my skin really glows!

Retinol Alternative
I tried this product as it was recommended by my Dermatologist as an alternative to a retinol product for my sensitive skin. I use it only at night. I like the way that it moisturizes and it seems to be helping my skin look smoother and have a more even tone. I have not yet seen any reduction in fine lines. I will keep using this product.

Works well
This product was recommended by my Dermotologist. She said it would help fade the sun damage I have and diminish fine lines. It does both very well. The only problem is its very drying to the skin, as is any retinol product. Ive also added a hydrating serum to combat that. I will continue to use this product.
