Game changer
This is the best product for sensitive skin, start out using 3 times a week and now able to use nightly. I see a positive difference in my skin.

Effective and non-irritating!
I've been using retinol for 30 years and this is my favorite brand! I have discovered that the 0.25 strength is effective without the skin irritation/flakiness. This is the holy grail for anti-aging!

Perfect Balance
I was so nervous to try retinol but this low dose was perfect for starting out. I only noticed a bit of peeling and sensitivity and the purging process was about 4 weeks! Overall very visible difference in my skin- smaller pores- clearer skin! Highly recommend!

SkinMedica Retinol 0.25/ Superb Introduction to Retinol
Superb Introduction to Retinol: this was an outstanding, gentle retinol that was easy to use on my very sensitive, rosacea prone skin. Used this as an introduction to trying to use retinol and it’s so well-formulated that my skin tolerated it. I used it as directed and my skin was not irritated even though it’s very sensitive. The retinol felt comfortable on my skin. It does not have any irritating fragrance or essential oils as many brands do, even cosmeceutical brands do. My skin is starting to look more refined. I plan to purchase another 0.25 of this retinol, after finishing that, will move onto SkinMedica’s 0.50 Retinol.

SkinMedica Retinol Complex 0.25
I try to remember to use this every other night. It works to lighten dark spots without any rash. I have tried other similar products but has the best results!

Great ingredients
I really like that this serum has peptides & ceramides in addition to retinol because these ingredients are staples in any anti-aging routine. I use this serum every night and have not notice skin irritation or sensitivity ever... my skin looks porcelain like in the morning.

Great Gentle Retinol
This was my first retinol product and it was so gentle on my skin but still yielded noticeable results. I graduated form using this every other day, to every day, to moving up to a stronger formulation. I highly recommend this to anyone with sensitive or dry skin and/or who is just getting started with a retinol routine.

Skinmedica RetinolComplex ,25
I have always had problems with Retinols. This one is easy to use and just enough for my mature skin. After applying,I wait a few minutes and lightly use my moisturizer of choice. My skin is responding by lessening forehead and expression lines. My dark spots are fading and my skin is not irritated.I am now using every other day. A wonderful product.

Fantastic Retinol!
A dermatologist that I follow on Instagram recommended this and I'm very happy that I purchased it! Works great for sensitive skin. I use it three times a week and love that it is in a pump instead of a tube or bottle with a dropper.

Quality Product
I use this every other night and find that I do not react negatively. Planning to slowly work up to every night. I have tried other retinols in the past, but this is the best quality product I have tried. Would recommend.

Newbie to retinol
This is my first retinol product so I got the lowest concentration to test it out. I have not had any negative skin reactions. I use it close to 3 times a week and it has not irritated my skin. I think this is a great starter product to bring into your skincare routine.

No irritation
This is the first retinol I’ve used that has not caused any irritation. However, I’m not sure that it is of sufficient strength to be providing any benefit. I will be trying the 0.5 when finished to see if this offers any additional benefits.

First time user - seeing results!
This is my first time using retinol. I think this stuff is really working! I use it on my neck and face and have seen tightening in the skin and improvement in texture. It did dry my face in patches but I apply healing moisturizer to those spots and my complexion seems more youthful and glowing. Great thing for a newly 40-year old! I will be trying the .5 next.

Gentle but effective!
This is the only retinol that my sensitive skin can tolerate. I use it every other night and have not experienced any significant dryness.

Must Have
My sister is a dermatologist and she had recommended this product to me years ago. And I have loved it ever since.

Perfect!
I am so thankful they made this in a 0.25% strength. My aesthetician really wanted me on Retinol as part of my hyperpigmentation treatment plan, but the stronger solutions always dried out my face so bad I wouldn't be compliant with it. She recommended this to gradually increase to a 1% and it has worked great!

Holy Grail Retinol
I've used this product for a short period of time and I swear I'm already seeing results on my forehead wrinkles. I also have sensitive skin, I love how the niacinamide calms redness. Will buy again!
