Lightweight and stone
I'm impressed by how strong the .5 product is! Since I've used retinol products for years, I thought my skin would be used to this right from the get go, but it took weeks to adjust without flaking. That tells me what I was using wasn't as potent at I thought. I also love the lightweight, silky texture. Great product!

Use with TNS for best results
I love this especially when I use TNS 1st then retinol and followed by Hsa The combo works great on my older skin leaving it clear bright and minimize fine lines and softens the deep one. I look years younger since I’ve been using this.

Melasma Journey - SkinMedica Retinol Complex 0.5
Everyone has an opinion on retinol :) For me, retinol was a key part of overcoming major melasma, in addition to hormones, SPF, sun, etc. I've tried retinol from several providers and the SkinMedica brand is best tolerated on my skin. I usually stick to 0.5, occasionally the higher powered one, and always include a gentle moisturizing creme to provide support to my skin. I tend to alternate nights. For me, regular retinol use (in addition to an overall skin care routine) has reduced my melasma by 95% and my skin looks great. I stopped using retinol for a couple months to try a natural alternative - bakuchoil- and my skin literally aged rapidly. It was crazy. Adding this product back in got my skin looking great again. I'm a 44 y/o female and this product is a super power in keeping me feeling good and aging well.

Skinmedica retinol
I have been using this for many years and love it ! I’m 69 years old and my skin looks amazing. My daughters constantly comment how young my skin looks. It’s not harsh and not peeling or redness.

Ret 0.5
One of my favorite retinol creams! I use it 3 times a week and have now begun alternating with the AHA cream. Moving up now to 1.0 and will see how that goes.

love this product!
I stepped up from the .25 a few months ago and it has been an easy transition. It did not dry me out and I see an improvement in my skin texture.

Best Retinol
Great retinol I have been using for about a month now and have been having less breakouts. I have really dry sensitive skin and this product can be a bit drying so I use it 3x a week. Overall I think this is the best retinol I have used!

suitable for sensitive skin
I love most of Skinmedica products. This product is no exception. It's mild enough for ultra sensitive skin.

Love this one more than the other brand!
Long time user of another medical grade retinol, but I will continue to buy this brand. Love the pump over the other brand’s tube. I seem to use just the right amount instead of wasting it. It’s also so much more gentle with no irritation on my sensitive, eczema-prone maturing skin (45). I’m so glad I gave this a try and LovelySkin offers more sales on this brand which is a plus!

Just perfect
Retin-A is too irritating for my skin so this is a nice compromise. The results take more time, but the product is non drying, non irritating and a great addition to my regular night time routine.

Good results so far
I’ve worked up to 0.5% strength and use this product 2-3 times per week, hoping to get to 3-4 times per week. I’ve noticed my skin is more sensitive when using other products containing retinol when advancing to this strength but want more benefit as I age with the understanding that this is normal. So far so good.
