Avene RetrinAL o.1
I am pleased with this product. I use it every other night and it is very mild with no peeling or flaking on my sensitive skin. I also put a small amount on my lips at night and it does not cause peeling but seems to restore the color to my lips. Will gradually use it more frequently and perhaps bump up to a stronger percentage.

Another fabulous Avene product.
This is the first retinol product I have been able to use routinely without side effects of dryness on my face. It has helped tremendously. I love AVENE.

Great for sensitive skin
The Avene RetrinAL 0.1 is amazing for sensitive skin. It hasn't made my face dry or irritated and has no scent. I will definitely purchase again!

Great Product
I really like this product. It’s non irritating for my sensitive skin yet still effective. I wish I would have started with the 0.05 because I did have mild peeling. This was my fault and not the product, just wanted to share in case the mild flakiness bothers you- start with the weaker dose.

Love it
I run out of Skinbetter retinol and decided to find something cheaper. Avene Retinal works great for me, it doesn’t irritate my skin. I also used it around eye area and it didn’t sting.

Don't Underestimate This One!
I got a sample of this product and loved it because it quickly dried and how it made my skin feel. I purchased the full size and I'm so glad I did. After using this consistently every night my face I am seeing remarkable improvements. Even where a blemish I could not get rid of disappeared within the first week. This one is a winner! I only wish this brand had travel sizes to purchase for traveling with.

Avene Retrinal 0.1
I must say I was a bit hesitant to order the Avene Retrinal 0.1. After reading all the product information and science on this product from LovelySkin and since I have used prescription strength Retin A, as well as retinol products from many of the high end skin care lines, I decided to give it a try. Wow!! I am very pleased and happy that I did. I have been using it in the evening for a couple of weeks now and my skin loves it! No irritation, goes on elegantly and works well with my other night time regimen. My skin feel smoother and firm, pores are less noticeable, I am very happy!

Mild retinol
The Avene retinol seems to be a milder product, but it is still effective.

Fantastic Retinal!
I have been using this product for 1.5 years as an alternative to Adapalene. I have very sensitive skin and deal with eczema around my mouth, nose, and eyebrow line. Adapalene did it's job well, but I was constantly fighting the irritation around my mouth and outer the edges of my nose, even though I wasn't applying it directly to those areas. I read that retinal could be less irritating and this particular product can be used on the neck and around the eyes, unlike adapalene. I decided to give it a try and I have been using it ever since. I layer a little petroleum over the areas where I have eczema once the RetrinAL has absorbed into my skin as a precaution for flare-ups. I have great glowing skin! I have watch brown spots and soft wrinkles disappear and have a lot of improvement with skin elasticity in my face and neck. I highly recommend this product!

Gentle Retinol
I have been using this product for years. I have very sensitive skin but have not had any reaction to this product. I started out with the lower 0.5%, but then moved to the 1%. I don't have many wrinkles in my face at 57, so I assume it is doing its job. I use it under a moisturizer every night.

Gentle yet effective
I've been a loyal tretinoin user for years, but menopause dried my skin out and tret wasn't agreeing with me any longer. I love the thick texture of this product, and it doesn't stain me mustard yellow like other more serum-like retinaldehyde products I've tried. My skin glows just like with tretinoin but with zero dryness or peeling. This will be a staple for me. I can even use it on my sensitive neck, something I could never do with rx tret, even the mildest formula.

I have used trentinoin, and adapaline and both killed my skin barrier. This product is fantastic. Does the job without causing peeling and breakouts.

Became my favorite!
I have been using this RetinAL 0.1 for over a year now. I'm 32 and have very sensitive and dry skin. I usually use this lotion right before I'm done with washing my face before bed. I do use a moisturizer afterward so to say enhance the effect. I do see the results - my skin is smooth, comfortable and looks so much happier! Thank you Avene!

Gentle yet effective!
I had been using .05% px tretinoin for many years, but wanted to try something a little gentler to use on the neck/décolletage. This Avene product had great reviews so I decided to try it. So far, it seems to be effective and very gentle. I love all Avene products and will keep purchasing this one especially during a LovelySkin sale.

Nice product
I only gave it 4 stars because I’ve only been using it for 1 month and I haven’t noticed a difference in my skin. However, it is very gentle even for sensitive skin like mine. I apply lotion right after to prevent drying. I plan to keep using this product every night. I like how it absorbs right into my skin.

Effective, not harsh
The Avene RetrinAL uses retinaldehyde, different form of retinol, which is more effective as well as easier on the skin. I like the results and that my skin doesn’t get irritated from it.
