Reviews For SkinCeuticals Retinol 0.3 Refining + Anti-Aging Night Cream
Effective without redness
This is my first non prescription use of retinol and the results are so much better than any prescription I have ever used and it doesn’t leave my skin red, sensitive or flaky. Helps smooth fine lines and shrink pores.

Wonderful Retinol Product
This is a go-to for me. It's got a lovely creamy consistency and is quite easy to smooth smaller amounts into my skin. I love and trust SkinCeuticals so this is a no brainer.

Excellent
SkinCeuticals is my go-to brand. This retinol is very effective! I noticed results within a day or two! Retinol was NOT abrasive and didn’t leave me too sensitive with peeling skin. Lines have faded and skin looks remarkably younger. A true game changer. Will buy again!

Great Product
This is the first time I've been able to use Retinol... .3 starting point worked! Have tried stronger product in the past and did not like the dryness. Definite improvement in my skin without harsh irritation... slowly but surely seems the route to go! Now applying 3 times/week and plan to increase slowly.

Quick Results
I have sensitive skin but really wanted the benefit of a retinol product. I’ve worked up to every other day without any problems. I’ve seen some softening of lines and my pores have shrunk in some areas. Highly recommend.

SkinCeuticals Retinol 0.3 Refining + Anti-Aging Night Cream
Very effective at exfoliating my skin and not as harsh as some other retinols I’ve tried.

SkinCeuticals Retinol
I have been using this product for 3 months. It is light, non-greasy, glides on easily, and absorbs quickly. It helps to brighten skin and I will continue using this nightly.

Must have
I’m on my mid 30s and I feel like retinol is a must have. No wonder retinol is called the “holy grail” of skin care. I started resuming the use of retinol, specifically this low strength from Skinceuticals recently after doing a bunch of research/ watching dermatologist do their reviews of retinol. Please don’t make the same mistake that I did when I first started using retinol. Back then all I keep hearing was “retinol is good for your skin” as it speeds up the cell turnover process. Without doing any research or advise from providers I went full force, I used the maximum strength 1.0 with the mindset that “the stronger, the better”. I suffered from what they called “retinol dermatitis”. I have a sensitive/ acne prone skin. I was using the maximum strength every night. In a matter of few days, my face turned red with heavy peeling and worse breakouts. I stopped using it and spoke with a provider. I got traumatized from using retinol and told myself I will never use it again! After recommendations from friends that have glowing skin and watching reviews from dermatologist online on how to use retinol properly, this time I came prepared and gave it another shot. I started with the lowest strength from Skinceuticals, specifically this 0.3 dose. I prep my skin with a mild cleanser followed by a “pea size” amount of retinol then apply triple lipid restore cream. Yep, all you need is a pea size (please don’t same mistake I did). I use the retinol initially once every 3 days then now every other night. Omg, my skin has never felt so great! I can notice the difference already and will continue using it. My breakout is lessening and my skin appears smoother. Overall condition of my skin is better! For now, I will stay with this strength and keep using it every other night.

Good for Sensitive Skin
This lower-strength retinol is great for people with sensitive skin! In the winter, I typically can't use retinols at all because they make my skin red and itchy. I haven't had any problems with this one, and my skin looks great! I will probably go back up to the 0.5 strength again for the summer but I am so happy that I discovered this product!

Excellent Retinol Night Cream for first time users.
A mild retinol cream for beginners that still does its job at renewing your skin cells.

A MUST!
What a product: I chose 0.5 as a medium concentration, and it does wonders when it comes to skin discoloration, large pores & fine lines with regular use! Make sure you start gradually: twice a week then every other day, & don’t forget sunscreen whether you live in a cold or hot, dry or humid weather conditions! Also be careful not to buy this product alone: Hyaluronic acid & a super moisturizing cream are a must while on a retinol course! I personally use it with the HA Intensifier & Triple Lipid Restore cream, which I also posted reviews about!

Great Retinol Starter for Sensitive Skin
I have been on Accutane twice and have incredibly sensitive dry skin. I purchased the SkinCeuticals Retinol 0.3 Refining + Anti-Aging Night Cream because the 0.5 strength was too potent for my sensitive skin. I combine this product with my SkinCeuticals Triple Lipid Restore 2:4:2 Anti-Aging Cream, and I can tolerate it every other night. I have not progressed to nightly yet; however, I am encouraged by my results so far because it is more tolerable than the 0.5 strength.

Positive experience with first retinol product
This is my first retinol product I have incorporated into my skincare routine. I intentionally chose the lowest strength to gradually work myself up to a higher strength eventually. I also intentionally chose Skinceuticals because of the brand’s great reputation of being backed by science and research, giving me confidence I am putting in the time with one of the best products. Looking forward to increasing your the 0.5 and then 1.0 strengths.

First Retinol try
I’ve been using for about 3 weeks now and haven’t had any issues with drying although I’m slowly adding days. Started out with twice a week and now at 3 times, I see a little improvement so far in texture of my skin. So far so good!

This Retinol is a staple in my evening skincare regime. It gets the job done without any peeling or irritation. Hardly a night goes by when I don't use this. I've gotten wonderful results

Best for sensitive skin
This product does really well for my skin being that I am sensitive to higher strength retinol‘s. Would give this a 10!! Will definitely be a repeat customer on this product.

SkinCeuticals Retionol .3
So... it has been along time since I used a retinol. In the past, retinols caused havoc to my skin so I always ended up quitting. At the encouragement of my dermatologist, I decided to once again try out a retinol. I have been using this the Retinol .3 for about 2 weeks. I have some mild peeling but nothing like in the past. I am anxious to see how my skin looks in the next 4 weeks. Based on my reaction, I can recommend this product but please realize you my peel. I consider this a minor price to pay for beautiful skin!
