Great Retinol Product
Very impressed with this product. Just started using retinol a few months ago and have definitely noticed a difference in my skin. Doesn't seem to be too drying either which is a plus.

The better one
I'm pleasantly surprised by the results. Seems that it's performing better then any other retinol products I've used. And at the same time with much less irritation. Thank you!

My Skin Love’s This!
I use both the 0.5 and the 1.0 retinol products, and my skin loves them both! I typically use the 0.5 in the winter/spring months, and the 1.0 in the summer. It’s the best!

Awesome retinol product
Lotion like feel helps and skin doesn’t feel irritated. Evens out skin texture.

Gentle for sensitive skin
This retinol is very good. It is gentle to my skin and makes my skin soft. Can’t wait to see long term results.

Stepping it up!
So I've been using the .25 version for a little over 1 year and I was nearing the end of my supply. I read the reviews for the .50 strength and decided to give it a try. I'm glad to switched to the higher strength! I've notice a big difference in the texture and appearance of my skin. I'm a huge fan of SkinMedica products and will definitely reorder this in the future.

Best Retinol
This is the best I have used. Not quite as harsh with the peeling phase.

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.

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.

SkinMedica Retinol Complex 0.5
This is good for Retinol starters. But if you're trying to use it for moderate acne, you need something stronger like the 1%. Hoewever, their 1% created a map on my face a while back.

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.

Way too strong
My skin was able to tolerate the .25 really well. I ordered the .5 and experienced the worst reaction to retinol. My face immediately turned red, which I sort of expected. But then it got super dry by the next morning and anything I would apply to it face wash serum or moisturizer would burn and cause my skin to turn red. I would only use this strength if you don't have sensitive skin.

Good retinol
I’ve only been using for a few weeks and it is definitely stronger than my last retinol. I find my face gets a little reactive and red if I overuse and don’t hydrate enough after.
