Reviews For SkinCeuticals Retinol 0.3 Refining + Anti-Aging Night Cream
Results without irritation
I have used retinol for over 30 years. I am 72 years old and the 0.3 strength is perfect for my mature skin. Good results with no irritation!

Loving my clear skin!
I recived a sample of SkinCeuticals Retinol 0.3 Cream and saw an immediate reduction in the blemishes and pimples on my skin. I have very sensitive skin and I was nicely surprised that this retinol didn't dry out my skin. I had to buy the full size because my skin has never looked more clear! Thank you Skinceuticals!

Great for sensitive skin
This is great for sensitive skin! I have only been using it for a few days, but I haven't had any kind of reaction from it. It leaves my skin feeling soft and it has helped clear up some congestion in my skin. I follow with the triple lipid restore to make sure I keep my skin hydrated. Those two are a dynamic duo!

Gentle starter retinol
I have tried retinol products from a bunch of different brands, but it’s been difficult to find one that’s gentle on my skin and effective at the same time. This SkinCeuticals retinol cream does both - finally! It has a light gel like texture, spreads easily, and I only experience mild peeling when ramping up to using this daily. The cream keeps my skin clear, and I’ve noticed smoother skin while using. I haven’t noticed any drastic changes on my mild wrinkles, and will probably bump up to a stronger retinol strength when I’m done with this tube.

Perfect!
Retinals always made me bright red and this is the first one that hasn't done that. It also works great to my congested skin clear and blemish free. And it doesn't make me oily at all, or too dry either. Will continue to re-order...

Love this !
It’s not too strong, very mild. I use it in conjunction with the HA Intensifier. My skin really looks nice and glows.

Retinol that you won't quit!
After trying many otc retinol products and prescription tretinoin, I am happy to say that I will never quit SkinCeuticals Retinol. The retinol 0.3 makes using retinol each night an easy task. I haven't had any peeling, redness, or irritation. If possible, I will bump up to the next strength when I finish this tube. My skin's texture and clarity have improved with each passing week.

Great product
Love this! Very powerful though. My skin peeled the first night using it, but very smooth and helps with fine lines.

Progression, not aggression!
Retinols can be tricky! As a skin therapist for 20 years, I had so many patients who were hesitant to use retinols as they were given one from their doctor and it was super irritating and uncomfortable. Retinol needs to be introduced to the skin low and slow. I love the SkinCeuticals retinol line as it allows patients or clients to have a progressive treatment for their skin. Starting with the 0.3 and working up to the higher percentages works great and the results are fantastically smooth and youthful skin!

Works great for sensitive skin
I love this! Doesn’t make my face peel like stronger tretinoin. I almost wish I did the step up but I have noticed my skin texture improving even with just a few weeks use of this. I have sensitive acne prone skin and haven’t had a break out or dryness yet. Recommend!

Love It
I love adding retinol to my routine. However it can be super drying to the point where it can spread to your eye area regardless how much you try to avoid that area. Luckily this one isn't drying and it helps with my acne. Will continue to purchase.

Great product!
First, I love SkinCeuticals products. Yes, they are costly, but they deliver better results for me than any other products have in the past. The .3 retinol is a perfect retinol starter. As others have recommended, I used it 1x weekly for the first couple weeks, then 2x for 2 weeks, and on. So far, I'm seeing great, but gentle, results. A little peeling & redness which ends up being fresh, soft, smooth new skin. I'm 59, so this is a pretty miraculous thing! Hoping to continue & move to .5 retinol with the same results in the future. I would definitely recommend starting with this retinol. And you only use a little, so this will last a long time, making it more cost-effective.

Good so far!
I’ve used this for about 1 month now and do like it. I noticed a difference in my skin right away. I definitely would recommend starting only 1-2 times a wk if this is your first time with retinol. You only need a little bit and it will last you a long time!

Favorite retinol
I’ve tried a few retinol products but my skin is so sensitive that it didn’t tolerate them well. But this retinol is tolerable and one that I can apply nightly. I add moisturizer afterwards to really hydrate my skin at bed time and it’s the perfect balance.

Good starting retinol
I purchased this to acclimate my skin to retinol. Goes on very smooth with no sticky feeling. Moisturizing enough alone unless you have dry skin. Was not irritating.

Good for starters
This is the first time using a retinol product so I bought the weakest strength and I really like the results so far. I don't seem to have a problem with using it a few night a week, now I have to increase the number of nights and then see what happens. When I use up my current tube, I plan to increase the strength and see what results I get with that. My dermatologist recommended your website and I'm glad she did.
