Reviews For SkinCeuticals Retinol 1.0 Maximum Strength Refining Night Cream
Good results over time
I've used prescription tretinoin in the past and find this product to be somewhat similar. If you haven't used retinol before, start slowly and you will have good results over time!

Ready for Renewal
I am a 49 y/o bf with normal skin. My skin is usually very easy to care for. I'm finding as I age, my skin does not turn over as quickly as it use to. I've used Retinol 0.5 in the past with great results several years ago so I knew it would be better to go for the Retinol 1.0. I was correct. It has taken 10 days for my skin to begin to peel. ( in the past the Retinol 0.5 worked faster) My new skin looks and feels wonderful!! My dark spots are much lighter, blackheads in my nose are gone, fine lines around my mouth are diminished. This is the best exfoliator around for home use on African American skin. While my skin is peeling, I use a heavier moisturizer (with sunscreen of course) and I avoid prolonged sun exposure. You may experience a little itchiness, just remember not to scratch or pick your skin in an attempt to help your skin thru the peeling process.

Skin ceutical retinol 1.
One of the best retinols I've used so far. Very effective for sloughing off skin and lightening dark spots. Very strong so use with caution.

Best Retinol Cream!
This is the best over the counter retinol cream I have found. It is very strong, so I only use it every third night, but you will see results.

STRONG but effective Retinol!
It has only been one week since I started using this. It is VERY potent and I am noticing much smoother results in just one week! However, I may have overdone it because my face is red and flaking....so I suggest you start with once or twice max a week. Other than that, it is great. :)

Great Product
This has helped with the fine lines on my forehead. I also have very sensitive skin and surprisingly I didn't have any reaction to this product.

Better than Paula''s Choice Clinical 1% Retinol Treatment
For some reason, SkinCeuticals Retinol 1.0 works better for than the one from Paula's Choice. I am not seeing any irritation so far.

Better then Tretinion cream alone!
I have been using Tretinoin cream for a long time now and after using this for a short time, the added ingredients really make this product better!

Best Retinol Cream I've Tried
I've tried several over the counter retinol creams and have built up quite a tolerance to them over the years. This 1% cream by SkinCeuticals has become a repeat order for me. As long as you use this at night and are careful not to use too much at once, I recommend this to anyone looking for more results in a retinol cream. The only negative to this product is its shelf life, which is typically shorter than the time it takes me to use up the product in the tube.

Effective Retinol Treatment
I found this to be an effective, yet gentle Retinol cream. I do not know how it would compare to a prescription product/what the difference would be.

Best Retinol Product Ive used!
If you ever used Retin-A you know that it can be pretty harsh on your skin, causing redness and lots of peeling. This product delivers the retinol in a much gentler way. Start off using it a couple times a week and slowly increase to everyday. It does not remove wrinkles, it just helps to reveal soft, vibrant skin.

1.0 works on the tougher lines
5.0 did not make certain line areas turn red (important step to turn-over the new skin) but was perfect for other areas not so tough. 1.0 did the tough job gently and effectively! I trust SkinCeuticals to make great products! I am using 5.0 and 1.0 retinol from SkinCeuticals to diminish wrinkles! Thank you SkinCeuticals.

I have sensitive skin and was nervous to start a retinol. However, I didnt have any problems using this and loved the results.

My neighbor, who is a plastic surgeon, recommended I use this product instead of getting a facelift--or at least to forestall getting one for a long while! So glad I took her advice--my skin looks great and Im saving money, too.

Excellent Product
In the past I have always used a prescription strength Retinoid cream. But due to the tremendous increase in cost, my dermatologist recommended trying SkinCeuticals Retinol 1.0. My skin had to get "used to the product" and I did this by using it only a couple times a week at first. It is powerful stuff! But now I am seeing the benefits, softer skin, more "luminous" skin. Great product, a must have for every woman!
