Reviews For SkinCeuticals Retinol 0.3 Refining + Anti-Aging Night Cream
The best one for the retinol beinners
It's strong anyway, better to combine with Skinceuticals Resveratrol and Triple Lipid Restore

Best retinol I’ve used
I’ve used many other professional retinols but they don’t work like this one. This is the first one my face has actually had some peeling/ cellular turnover. I think if I keep using it a few times a week I’ll have great results.

Best Retinol for sensitive skin
I was not able to use a retinal as I would get red and blotchy even with the lowest concentration. I decided to try SkinCeuticals .3 retinol and it has worked wonders. I started slowly using it 3x a week and gradually I was able to use it every night. I use a moisturizer after applying the retinol. In a few months I will try the .5 strength. I love all SkinCeuticals products.

Good starter retinol
Good retinol for easing into products. Gentle, good for sensitive skin.

Too harsh for my skin
Even this lower level of retinol is too harsh for me. I think I’m just not a good candidate for this kind of topical. I switched back to an AHA based treatment for my combination, mature but acne prone skin and that works a lot better. People still think I look ten years younger than I am without me asking, so I will take the win by using a good skin care routine.

Too strong for me
I have very sensitive skin and over the years the sensitivity has increased to the point where even this gentle formulation can only be used 2-3 times per week. I really like this and have used the 0.5 and this one for years, but my skin can barely tolerate it now.

Better than Zenni
Been using this since exhausting a 6 month supply of Zenni comparable product. This is must less harsh on my skin -- Zenni really messed with my ph balance, left me flaking and red/raw all the time, even after getting slowly acclimated. Not sure if I see a large difference yet, except my pores look better and my overall tone seems a bit better. After using this tube, I'll increase to 5.0 Retinol and see what happens.

Retinol
Not all retinol’s are formulated equally. Prescription retinols from the dermatologist are usually stronger. Depending on the reason you’re using a retinol, (if it’s as an anti-aging treatment or for acne). It’s recommended to start with a low dose of the active ingredient. I’ve used prescription and over the counter retinol. In my opinion SkinCeuticals offers the best product of varying strengths. I started using 0.3% once a week with great results! This retinol is not harsh and excessively drying. It’s also not overly emollient like some prescription retinols that try to counter the drying effects. A little bit is all you need to cover your face and neck before bedtime. When you wake up and wash your face your skin tone is even and all you need is a moisturizer with sunscreen and your all set! I highly recommend all products by SkinCeuticals, but if you have to chose only one, this is it!

This is working great so far
I tried another brand of Retinol and constantly had severe dryness and flaky skin even when using only twice a week. I have used this now for about 3 weeks and I have not had much dryness or flaky skin, but I can tell it is working. My skin feels softer and smoother. It looks more even toned. I use this with Triple Lipid Restore SkinCeuticals 2:4:2 Anti Aging Cream. These two together I think are helping me to tolerate the Retinol. Hoping to move to 3 times a week soon.

So far so good
It's my first time using retinol, so I was not sure what to expect. My skin started to flake a little when using it twice per week. But I am pairing it with the SkinCeuticals moisturize and it helps. I will increase the frequency once my skin gets used to it. Overall I am very pleased with this product.

Great product
This is a fantastic non-irritating retinol product. I've been using it for some time, and it does a wonderful job without causing any side effects or irritation. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for an effective and gentle retinol option.

Good, but not for sensitive skin
Most of the Skinceuticals products are great. Despite being at 0.3 in strength, this retinol is a powerful and effective product. However, it might not be a suitable product for people with sensitive skin or are just beginning to incorporate retinol in their skincare routine.

Too hard to spread
This is not for me. You have to put it on a dry face and it doesn't spread smoothly unless you use more than the four or five drops suggested.

Great for sensitive skin
SkinCeuticals Retinol 0.3 is perfect for my sensitive skin, I use it every other night. I also use it on the back of my hands to help with wrinkles. It leaves my skin so soft and smooth.
