Reviews For OBAGI Clinical® Retinol 0.5 Retexturizing Cream
Great for sensitive skin
I have super sensitive skin at the age of 76 and fair complexion with Roscea. I have not been able to use retinol products. I have a forehead that needed some tender care without going to laser or peels. This is perfect. I have been using for months and have noticed a subtle difference in resurfacing with notable redness or irritation.

Unsure
I received the product the shipping box. See it fine. The box that the cream came in seemed fine. When I went to use the product the top part of the tube came off, and half of the cream spilled all over the bottom of my sink. That being said I was able to put the top back on and I have been using it. I like it so far because it does not seem to affect my skin. I have very sensitive skin with rosacea. So far it’s not causing any reaction which is very good! Hopefully next time I will get one that doesn’t have an issue with the tube.

Obagi is one of my favorite brands!!
I've always trusted Obagi ever since I know this brand in my early 20s (I already started using this brand when I had my chickenpox and the cream I was using for scars left behind was really good). 20 years later, I am still using this brand. Of course, never used Retinol until about 8 years ago because I need it due to aging issues. I mean everyone gets old but what we must do is to slow down the process and grow old gracefully. I like the one the tube dispenses the retinol which you can control. Guess I have been using Retinol for years and therefore never experienced any irritation, dryness or peeling. Just remember to follow the instructions and SPF30 and above during the day is a must. Pamper yourself and I am very sure your skin will thank you. Best Wishes, Obagi loyal customer

Amazing retinol
My aesthetician recommended this retinol to me and so far I can see a major difference in the evenness of my skin!

Lovely, Layering Cream
I bought this OBAGI cream a year ago (June) and tried it but ended up using it mostly in the late fall and winter. The strength of this formulation is being gentle (due to the chamomile extract among other things), playing nice with other face oils & serums, and containing a mild dose of retinol for people with sensitive skin, or who are looking for a starter/maintenance formulation. I applied at night and noticed modest textural improvements in fine forehead lines with consistent use, and felt the pump dispensed the right amount of product per application. Always take time to rub night creams in with facial massage, it feels good and makes a difference! Still have the tube and box and was surprised to recently get a final couple of full pumps out. Probably worth it to open the end of the tube for one final application before disposal; don't forget applying to the backs of your hands, if you ever end up with excess cream on them. Yesterday, purchased a different brand 1% retinol from LovelySkin to try next.

Solid product
I like it. My face cannot tolerate prescription strong retinol, so I decided to use something less strong. This one seems to work. It doesn’t make face super dry, if you are sensitive to retinol I would use every other day to let your skin to get used to.

This retexturizing retinol is the best retinol I’ve used. Too bad there isn’t a step up 1% to get to because I’d be buying that next. Love the added ingredients to calm and moisturize. Don’t even need a moisturizer to put on after. Helps with acne too.

Very good
I know the importance of including a retinol in one’s skin care regime but in the past some retinols have been too hard on my sensitive skin. The Obagi 0.5 retinol does the trick and doesn’t bother my skin. I love Obagi products and I am grateful that they continue to add new products to their line as I know they can be trusted!

Very gentle retinol cream. I was surprised I am able to use it nightly with no irritation. I’ve just ordered my 2nd tube!

Excellent encapsulated retinol
Have used this 3 times at night with zero irritation. Since my insurance will no longer cover tretinoin 0.1% , I needed to find another product. Obagi has not disappointed! My skin is loving this product!

Love this! My mainstay.
I have tried several different Retinal products over the years but have settled on this on to reorder over and over. I am also sending it to my daughter for a gift. It is gentle enough to use everyday without diluting with moisturizer. I also use it on the backs of my hands and my neck.

I really saw immediate results after using this product for a week. My lines began to fade around my mouth and forehead. Would recommend highly.

Light and effective
This retinol is a little powerhouse. It does not dry out like some other retinol products do. It leaves the skin soft and hydrated while pushing for cellular renewal through light exfoliation. Been using it for a month and have seen a significant difference in skin texture and discolorations. I use this at night and the Obagi C Serum during the day.
