I love the feel and my skin is plump when I awake.

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!

Radiant
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!

Very irritating
I have been using a retinol product for a long time so I thought I could do the 1.0. But it was too irritating.

Good product
Graduated from the .05 to this. Good product, but not a miracle worker. Have been using consistently and hard to say I’ve had any dramatic changes in fine lines, brightening, yet I trust it’s doing it job. Huge plus that it doesn’t make be breakout. Will continue to use. Be careful when applying other products even when at different times of the day - I use 15% azelaic acid in the morning and I battled through severe flakey/dry skin. I think I’m past that point now, but it took some time for my skin to get used to both products even though I apply one in the AM and one in the PM.

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.

Too harsh for me
Unfortunately this Retinol was too harsh for my face. Caused my face to continuously peel even waiting a few days before next application. Made my face red and very sensitive. Had to return it and repurchase the retinol product I’ve used in the past.

Great product
I initially in purchases this hoping it would control my super oily T-zone. It didn't work for that...but it imported my skin's overall appearance. I have better texture and tone 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.

Not for me
Thought I would save some money by switching to this brand. Regrets! My skin turned red and I had a lot of peeling skin in the morning. I am not new to retinol so I was surprised to have this reaction.
