In the evening, apply 4‐5 drops to clean dry skin, avoiding the eye area. Allow product to absorb before applying other skincare products. Limit initial use to once or twice a week, gradually increasing frequency to every other night, then every night as tolerated. It is recommended for new users to start with a Retinol 0.3 to establish skin tolerance.

Retinol product
This is part of the most recommended skincare trifecta (along with C. E. Ferolic and daily sunscreen). Takes a bit of getting used to but works!

great product
This product gave me better results than prescription tretinoin. Introduce it to your regimen SLOWLY to prevent peeling.

Works but not as moisturizing
First the pros: 1% retinol at a fair price. Does indeed work well. This has incorrect ingredient list on Dermstore as of the day this review was written. I bought this thinking it had shea butter( great emollient) and rose hip oil or rosa canina on the label, neither of these are there. See photo below.For me this makes it unpleasant to use as the texture is slightly grittier than obagi's version which I have tried in the .5% strength. I tried skinceuticles thinking it would have similar feel to Obagi and it does not its filled with lots of cones and polymers which I consider to be cheap fillers. Bisabolol is the only ingredient besides retinol that is of benefit in this formulation. Obagi's formulation is far more therapeutic and expensive but still cheaper than this, so thats another star off. Bottom line good but not great. On to skin medicas version to see how it stacks up against this and Obagi.

Love this product
I absolutely love this product. It might seem a little harsh at first, but try to use it less often and you will definitely see results. After using it every single night, there was a severe ittitation on my super sensitive skin, but when I started to use it 2-3 times a week I noticed a huge difference in my skin. Less lines on my forhead and smile lines.

Very effective!
Love SkinCeuticals. I have used 4 tubes of the Retinol, working up from the lower strength to the 1.0. It goes on well and I put a little moisturizer on over it and have had no problems with dry skin.

My skin needs this!
Bottom line,I love this retinol serum. It takes time for your skin to adjust and you must moisturize when using it, but when you develop a routine that works, it's amazing! I went a few weeks without using it and I could immediately tell the difference. It's worth the price and keeps my skin looking great. Must have for those interested in anti aging routine. I have combination, oily skin with occasional hormonal breakouts. This definitely tames my moody skin.

Love my SkinCeuticals Retinol 1.0 Cream UPDATE!
I've been using the SkinCeuticals 1.0 night cream for 4+months now (started with 2x weekly, then after 2 weeks went to eonight, now using every night) and my skin continues to looks smoother and pores look smaller. I am 58 and have fair to medium skin with freckles (auburn hair and green eyes), as well as somewhat sensitive skin, but no problems with the 1.0 strength cream. UPDATE: I've been using The 1.0 retinol cream now for over a year and same great results. I have switched to using it every other night, as I did start to develop a couple of small red patches on bpm chin and around be nose when I used it nightly. The patches cleared up within a week and my tube of retinol cream now lasts longer!

Really good
Really good product. Different than others, this one is really concentrated. I am using just 2x a week and I am already seeing the results.
