Skin care
I just started using this product about 2 weeks ago. It didn't breaks me out. I noticed a little improvement. It's a keeper. Next time I will purchase the 0.50.

If you want retinol to work, consistency is key. No problem with this product. Use a stronger formula and you can’t use it daily. This one is fabulous! Fresh face every morning!

Great results!
This product is great for evening out skin texture and reducing fine lines and discoloration. This is one of my favorites!

Best retinol product I have used yet!
I can see a visible difference in skin health after using this formula even though I was previously using another brand's product with a higher retinol percentage. I think I will be staying with SkinMedica Retinol 0.25! The only downside is that the metal packaging is heavy and not great for travel.

My First Retinol
This product is actually my first retinol skin product I’ve ever used in my skincare regime. I don’t find it too strong when applying to my face. I was having a lot of issues controlling breakouts I’ve never had to be concerned with and I believe this product has slowly helped me repair skin barrier and start the repair.

I love this retinol product! I have been using it for about two weeks now and already see a significant difference in my skin texture and the small wrinkles I was trying to control are now fading away. I use a good serum and moisturizer over it so my skin doesn't get too dry but it works! I also exfoliate twice a week to get rid of dead skin

Great retinol for sensitive, dry skin
Due to recent gastrointestinal issues, my skin which was always sensitive has been severely dehydrated and any previous retinol formulas I used were discontinued because of the irritation from them. I used this everyday for a week straight anticipating some sort of irritation but surprisingly there was none. Also, improved the texture in just a week. Looking forward to purchasing the higher strength the next time around since I tolerated this so well

Excellent product
This is a very mild retinol which does not leave my 60-year-old sensitive skin face red or irritated. I use it 3 nights/wk and I pair it with the HA5 Rejuvenating Hydrator. I think I will move up to the .5 formula on my next order.

Great for sensitive skin
This retinol product is gentle yet very effective. What also sets it apart is the excellent ingredients added to the retinol. Perfect for my combination/sensitive/aging skin.

The Best!!
This is the first retinol I’ve been able to use. Other brands of retinol have been to harsh and caused way too much redness, peeling and irritation that no amount of moisturizer or heavy cream could help. SkinMedica makes the gentlest but still effective retinol that I’ve used. I highly recommend this and their other products.

Good Product
I really like SkinMedica products and wanted to give this a try. I use prescription Retin A and wanted to switch off every other night with this since I can’t use the prescription one every night. So far, it seems to work pretty well. It’s a quality product, and if my skin seems a little dry, I skip a night. I would recommend.

Good serum but just not for me...
I concluded that it is this serum that causes my irritating/dry/itchy skin on my face. Every time I use this, I get irritated. It's very unfortunate and very weird because the ingredients sound really good and it contains everything your skin needs for anti aging. My husband uses this as well, and it's been working perfectly for him. I love SkinMedica, but not this one for me.

Good Entry To Retinol For Sensitive Skin
After not using a retinol based product for a few years, SkinMedica offers a lower formula to begin using retinol again. Follow the instructions provided and within a few weeks you will notice a mild peeling. I live in Florida and wear sunscreen on a daily basis as is what the product recommends. I will finish up this .25 and move up to .50 but I am glad I started with .25.

Nice retinol
I am getting back to using retinol in my skin routine. The .25 is a nice way to start out before going to a higher amount. I have been using this product every night, and notice improvement in my skin tone and texture.

Great Skin Care Creme
My skin care professional recommends this product, and it is excellent. My skin is brighter and there are fewer fine lines. I use it every night and would highly recommend it!

Great product
I have used lots of different retinol products over the years. I have sensitive skin and all the products I have used make my skin red and slightly irritated, no matter how long I have eased my way up in use. This product did not make me red or cause any irritation. I will continue to use this for my sensitive, aging, acne prone skin.

Great ''Starter'' Retinol
After much review of various retinol products, I decided on this one to start out with as I had never before used retinol. It is lovely, gentle and I can tell a difference in fine lines with regular use!
