Reviews For SkinCeuticals Retinol 0.3 Refining + Anti-Aging Night Cream
Great product
Love this! Very powerful though. My skin peeled the first night using it, but very smooth and helps with fine lines.

Eh. Not great
This doesn't work. nearly as well as prescriptions. I didn't notice any difference in my skin.

Works for light wrinkles
I'm in my mid forties and started noticing more wrinkles in my forehead and cheeks. This cream helps smoothen some areas and helps keep my skin brighter.. Works with mild acne breakouts.

Time Will Tell
So I just started using this rotating it with another retinol product. It is definitely working as I just started a bit of peeling after a couple of weeks. Even at level .3 it has an impact so tread lightly! I'm sure this will make a difference as retinol is the gold standard.

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!

Good Retinol Product
I've used quite a few retinol products from different brands before this one, but I still need to start with using only 1-2 times a week. I don't think it is so gentle or sensitive skin friendly. SkinCeuticals' no-nonsense formula is good and I like the texture of this product.

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!

First time using retinol, have dry sensitive skin but it does not hurt my skin at all, looks like is doing its stuff and my skin looks healthy and radiant. Love SkinCeuticals products.

Had high hopes for this product
I gave it 4 stars because for the short time I used it, it definitely worked as promised but unfortunately I guess I can't use Retinol products on my skin--I break out in what looks more like tiny blisters than acne and they take a very long time to go away. I've had this happen with other brands as well and I was hoping that this higher quality product from SkinCeuticals wouldn't cause this reaction, but it did. I'm sure it will work fine for people whose skin tolerates Retinol products well.

Love this product!
This was my first time using a Retinol product and I love it! I have used it for 2 weeks and am already seeing results.

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.

After reading the info, I sent this item back due rosacea. So, I didn’t try this retinol formula.

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.
