Great retinol!
This is a great strong retinol. I like the lotion consistency as well. You can't skip applying moisturizer after it, especially in the winter, or it will dry you out.

Really good!
I use almost everything in the Skinmedica line my dermatologist recommended it to me. It works so good but the retinal really makes a difference. Can’t be without it!

This stuff is gold. It doesn’t work overnight so stay patient. I started with the 0.5% and now onto 1%. In combination with chemical peels, my skin is radiant and so much more even. An absolute must to add to your skin regimen!

Take it from a medical esthetician- this 1.0 Retinol is amazing!
As a medical esthetician I know about good skincare products. I can say this is a very effective anti-aging retinol. The formula is just as effective as prescription tretinoin for smoothing my complexion, eliminating many of my sun spots and giving me a much brighter and more youthful appearance. I don't have to pay the price of tretinoin anymore with this product.

My skin loves this
This is amazing. Used the .5 for years and still love that one, but my skin responds really well (better even) to this one now at 42

Love this Retinol
Just bumped up to the 1% Retinol. Using every other night and with a dose of moisturizer on top my skin is handling it well. No redness a small amount of peeling… just what I needed to do. SkinMedica products are more expensive but I am always happy with the results.

Use sparingly at first!
This product worked but too well. I have had to cut back on using it. I had been using .05 for six months. Will used the stronger potion once a week and slowing increase.

Highly Recommend
Far better than any of the prescription retin-a medications I have used. I highly recommend. It will take your skin some getting used to. Stick with it. You'll see results.

My favorite
This is the best retinols that I ever used. I cannot use prescription strength retinol, which caused too much sensitivity and dryness. This one is perfect. It worked really well for me. I am on my 10th bottle. The packaging is great as well.

THE BEST
I love the Skin Medica 1.0 retinol complex. It’s the best retinol product I’ve used. It didn’t make my skin red and sore like so many other retinols do after a few days. Using this retinol gradually resulted in a gentle peeling of old skin. It is gentle enough to use every day. Great product.

Great product
I started using this serum after my dermatologist recommended it to me. It’s great for acne and wrinkles. Start with the 0.5 dosage if you’ve never used retinol in the past, you’ll need to build up your skin’s tolerance to the product and probably apply every other day before using it every day because it can be irritating and drying. Also don’t forget to use a good moisturizer, I use IS Clinical emulation and I absolutely love it.

Try this
I was using another 1.0 brand and this is so much better. No dryness if you make sure to follow directions. I use my serums then this, then I layer my moisturizer over this. I have had no issues whatsoever. I still only use 3 times a week.

Favorite Retinol Product
I've tried other products, including more expensive ones, and this is my favorite. It goes on nice and smooth and does not irritate my skin as others have. Will be sticking with this product long term!

Great 1.0 Retinol Cream...
I have been using the 1.0 Retinol Cream and love it. It does not burn and goes on smoothly. It has a nice smell also!

Better than the .5
I decided to move up from the .5 to this. I was worried about skin irritation but so far it has been fine!

Yes for me!
This Retinol really works. All the other Retinols did nothing for me. I already notice that my skin has changed — smoother, brighter and a decrease in lines. I do have to be careful as it does causing dryness in the winter, but sometimes I just switch the retinol dosage to be a little less in the winter months.
