Great Retinol
I use this retinol in my Glymed skin regimen and swear by it. It reduces hyperpigmentation while creating clarity and better tone. First time users should only use three times a week and build up to nightly use.

Works as expected
I have been using the .5 SkinMedica retinol daily and had reached the place where I could use a stronger product. I attempted to use it every day initially but it burns and reddens my face. I will have to build up a tolerance for daily use. It did cause my skin to flake from three days of back to back use. I am satisfied with this product and will continue to use it.

It's the perfect Retinol
I am 58 years old and have mature skin with a little sun damage. I have only been using this retinol for a little over a week. Every two days and it suits me nicely. It doesn't burn or irritate my skin. It makes it feel tighter. I have been following it with the skin medica dermal repair. I believe it's a nice combo. Also the skin medica tns eye repair. It truly it's making my skin feel soft as well.

Awesome
This is the best retinol I’ve been using. I ordered a second bottle and have auto ship on this. I get my mom used it also. Love all SkinMedica products.

Bad reaction
I had an unexpected allergic reaction to this product. I also had unrelated peeling, which the product description says won’t happen. Didn’t like this due to my allergic reaction. Returning.

Excellent product!
I was using Retinol Complex .5 but now up it to 1.0 after giving my skin time to adjust to retinol. I stopped using Botox on my neck and used this instead and I see better results. Recommended! It is a great product!

SkinMedica Retinol Complex 1.0
Have been using this product for several years. The product goes on smoothly, is a light texture. During the winter I cut back on using as your skin will flake. During the summer I use daily at night. Am happy using this, would recommend it.

Wasn't for me :(
I love SkinMedica; however, this product did not respond well to my skin. I have always used a tretinoin (which is strong), but my face was very sensitive and very red, so I thought I will give this a try. Looking back, I should have probably started off with the .5 rather than the 1.0. Ultimately, I switched up my skincare routine with other products.

A Must Have!
I believe most mature women can benefit from regular Retinol use. I like this product because it feels gentle, yet I can see its effects on my fine lines and wrinkles. It takes a little getting used to, so I recommend a few times per week until a tolerance is developed.

No difference between the .5 and 1
I have used the .5 before and I liked it. Than I ordered this one and I expected visible results. I did not see any extra improvement in my skin tone. If anything, this almost feels weeker than the .5. I am not sure I will repurchase this one again but I do really like the milder formula.

Made a difference!
I recently switched from the retinol complex 0.5 to the 1.0 and can already tell the difference.

Best retinol
Some 1.0 retinol's can be a bit irritating. SM has never irritated my skin and has worked well

Best!
This is the best Retinol treatment I have tried and the results are amazing. I have rosacea and combination skin, but followed the directions and only had one day of some dryness; no excessive redness or irritation! You only need one pump and the results are worth the cost!

Very Effective
I went from the .5 to this 1.0 strength Retinol by SkinMedica and the results were huge! I made a mistake and applied this after using a new toner and I got burn on my neck. That’s kind of embarrassing for now, but hopefully I’ll heal soon. This does cause a great deal of peeling
