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.

Really Works
Ok this stuff is strong, and it works. Prepare yourself for some dryness, little pealing, maybe tiny bit of redness, and tightness after just once use. When I started it, I only put it on at night 2x a week. I paired it with skincuticals lipid moisturizer, along with a good sunscreen during the day. Once you pass the dryness phase, your skin looks and feels amazing. Your skin will get used to it, and that phase will not last long. I gradually moved to 3x a week. I only use this two times a month. That’s exactly enough for me. My skin is so much brighter, even toned, smooth, and pores and fine lines diminished. If you have never used retinol, maybe start with lower strength, but for me, I want the maximum benefit in the shortest time, so I went full strength. I had used retinol before though. So I was prepared for the period of time that isn’t so great. If you know that going in, and really moisturize, and use a good sunscreen, you’ll be doing yourself and skin a huge favor. For reference, I have sensitive skin, and had no other reactions.

Good product bad packaging
My skin is properly prepped with .05 so this change to .1 was pretty smooth! Minimal dryness. A drawback is that you have to keep this container upright immediately after you take the amount you need because the pressure will just allow the product to ooze out.

Strong!!!
I thought my skin was ready for this, but it was not! This stuff is seriously strong. That was my mistake, but I gotta say this works! Picked up a less potent skinceuticals retinol to use until my skin is conditioned

Soothing!
I am very impressed with this product. I've tried a lot of retinol products and some are very harsh on the skin. I went straight for the 1.0 solution even though it recommended starting with the lower concentration. I have had no negative reaction to this product. I love the packaging. The cream comes out in small, precise drops so you don't waste. Another great product from SkinCeuticals!

Obsessed
If I was stuck on a island with only 2 skincare products this would be the one I would pick. It’s awesome. The other is Vitamin C by Skinceuticals.

Nighttime must
Gentle enough to not irritate skin but make sure you start with the lower levels first. Use a good night time moisturizer after.
