Good Stuff For Sensitive Skin

I apply this product every four days. The peeling is minimal and I've noticed an improvement. My skin is softer and clearer.

Buy now!

Can’t live without this. Helps with my melasma, but you have to be careful with the % (start small and build up) and use every other day starting out bc it is strong!

Perfection!

As a user of Retin-A for the last 30+ years I decided to try this on a whim because I was tired of dealing with super flaky skin all the time. This stuff is magic, I can apply this almost every night and wake up with clear skin and no flakes. I will eventually move up to the 1.0 version but I am still seeing results with the 0.5. I’m never going back to prescription Retin-A.

Glow and Go

After just a few week's of using this retinol I have a rosy glow to my cheeks and only use a tinted sunscreen instead of makeup. Priceless!

Retinol Complex

I use most of the SkinMedica products from LovelySkin and I can really tell a huge difference in my face with this product also. I was using a RX and switched. I’m so glad that I did.

Comparable to prescription strength products

I've used a prescription tretinoin for 15 years, but due to the pandemic, I haven't been able to visit my doctor's office for a prescription renewal. I love this brand and decided to give their retinol a try. Wow! This is a fantastic alternative to my Rx. It's non-irritating and seems to be doing a comparable job. I will continue purchasing it and plan to increase the strength once this bottle runs out. The price of my Rx has skyrocketed in recent years and is no longer covered by insurance, so I'll likely continue using this for the long term.

SkinMedica Retinol serum 0.5%

I have been using Skin Medica Retinol complex serum 0.5% for years. It is a wonderful non iritating Retinol serum. Use it nightly or at least 3 times weekly. I'm a huge fan of Retinol and the prescription Retinols are too iritating for my skin. this is perfect!

Loving it !

I switched from another major brand name to this one. So far so good. It’s not too harsh and my skin hasn’t been dry or flaky. I would definitely recommend this retinol.

Good

I have dry mature skin and this is just enough retinol for me. I used to use a stronger product but it was to drying. I like this product makes my skin smooth. I am able to use it more often because it is not as strong.

LOVE IT

I love this retinol. It make my skin smooth and soft. The redness is gone and acne start drying up right after I started using it. I use this product every other night just to make sure my skin gets used to it and so far I don’t have any dryness or irritation. Definitely worth every penny :)

Gentle Retinol

Retinol seems to be on every list of must use items to prevent aging. I've found that to be true and this one is gentle. I've never experienced dryness, redness or irritation. I use every other night.

I went up from .25 to .5 and this has made a difference in skin tone and texture.

Good stuff

I have no problem with this retinol cream. I started off with .25 retinol cream with no problem and it gave me good results. So I ordered the .50 it very good so far. Am African American in my 40s with no wrinkles. I just want to maintain my skin. So yes I would recommend this product.

Perfect starter retinol for me

I switched from a prescription tretinoin .06% to this and it was a great change. The previous one dehydrated my skin so badly and sensitized it to every other ingredient. Plus, it really didn't do much for my acne. This has done much better for my skin and I worked up from using it every other day to every day. Plus I like how this has more ingredients than JUST retinol in it.

Smooth my skin

I starting to use 0.25 Retinal Complex then switch to 0.5, I can tell that my skin is smooth and fade my fine line, it absorb quick and not sticky. SkinMedica Retinol Complex 1.0 is my next step.

Skin Medica Retinol 0.5

Works great. Previously used another more expensive brand from my doctor's office. Similar results with the SkinMedica product I purchased at LovelySkin. This is my third order for this product. Would recommend highly. Also, as usual, shipping was fast!

Smooth Skin

I love skin medica .050 retinol complex. After using the ..025 retinol complex I decided to try the .050 strength. My skin was already good so I was surprised in how much improvement I noticed in the smoothness and overall texture in my skin. It was also tighter and brighter. So glad I decided to go up on the strength. I have tried other retinols but this is the best.

Skin looks brighter!

I've only been using this a few weeks but I've already noticed my skin looks brighter and my hperpigmentation seems to have lightened. I'm excited to see what happens as time goes on. I did have flaking but I feel like it showed that it was working, so it didn't bother me.
