Obagi360 Retinol 1.0
The contents do a good job on the face by stripping away the dead skin. However, the packaging needs to be improved. The contents don’t squeeze through the exit hole easily. In fact, for the last two packages I received, the crimped seal ended up breaking and created an opening for the contents to squeeze out.

Good but strong
Beware when purchasing! When I bought this product I didn’t realize until after the fact and doing some research that the 1% is for experienced retinol users. If your skin is more sensitive like mine, then I would suggest starting with the .5% and then work up to the 1% as your skin adjusts to the product. I was using this every night but cut my use way down due to redness, peeling and irritation. I know that is what a retinol does but for me it was not tolerable. This product burned my skin because it’s too strong for me. I would recommend otherwise.

Obagi Retinol
After two weeks, I use just every other night due to burning sensation especially around eyes where I do not apply it! I can't see any change in my skin and will try to use it nightly.

Nothing yet
I have given this product a 3 for now. Unlike other reviewers I am not experiencing any peeling, flaking...nothing to date after 2 weeks of consistent use along with the NuDerm Blend and Vitamin C 20%. I had high hopes based on other reviewers. I am in my late 50s. If anything changes I will update my review.

My take on Obagi360 Retinol 1.0
I've given this product three stars in anticipation of ''upping the rating'' in the future with more use. I am in my early sixties and have very pale sensitive skin, and recently decided that my skin really needed a boost. I had seen a video of a woman in the same age bracket as myself whose skin was beautiful and she had been using Obagi360 Retinol as one of her daily routines. So I purchased this product. I have to say after approx. 3 weeks of peeling, dryness, and burning sensation to my face...it is finally starting to look and feel better than before the use of this product. I still have very slight peeling but moisturizer profusely. My skin is becoming very soft to the touch...so my hope is that it will continue to improve with the use of this product.

Not the same as Tretinoin
I have been using Obagi Nu-derm system for years with Tretinoin 0.1%. I bought this when I had a hard time finding the Tretinoin hoping this would work similarly. It is not near the same potency. If you are used the Tretinoin, this will be much milder and not produce the same effect. If Tretinoin is too hard on your skin, this is probably a good alternative.

Poor container
The container is poor but it makes my skin looks better. It causes redness first.

Obagi360 Retinol
Not sure how great this product is insofar as a less costly alternative to tretinoin cream, thus the three stars. I do, however, notice that I am indeed peeling a little bit as the retinol should do. I like the texture a lot and find that it absorbs well. Of course its not meant to be blended with the Obagi Blender, which I now apply after using the 360 retinol. Quite possibly a five star in the making but Ill have to continue using it for a few months before I know for sure and before I could with absolute confidence recommend this as a scrip replacement.
