SkinMedica's Age Defense Retinol Complex .25 is formulated to renew the skin's tone and texture without irritating the skin. Retinol helps combat the signs of premature aging while magnolia bark extract soothes inflammation. Ideal for use twice a week to build tolerance to formula.
Key Ingredients:
- Retinol: helps boost collagen production and cell turnover to reduce the appearance of fine lines and deep wrinkles
- PhytoShield™ Complex: an antioxidant complex, enhancing skin texture and minimizing irritation
Key Benefits:
- Enhances skin tone and texture
- Boosts more resilient skin
- Diminishes appearance of fine lines and coarse wrinkles
Apply in the evening after cleansing and toning and before applying your moisturizer. If a retinol product has never been used before, begin twice a week 2-3 days apart, gradually increasing frequency to every other night, and then advancing to each evening or as tolerated. Apply to the entire face. Avoid getting in eyes. If contact occurs, rinse eyes thoroughly with water.

Early stages of trying retinol
After some research, I decided that starting out with the .25 retinol is the way to go. I'm 30 and am seeing some fine lines, and I'm happy with how this is integrating into my routine. I am currently pumping 1.5 pumps into moisturizer at night and can tell that it's drying my skin out, but not too much. I skipped a day of applying it and could tell my face looked duller and not as firm. I would say this is the way to go if you want to start using retinol.

Still a bit harsh on sensitive skin
I have sensitive skin and I can use this about 2 nights a week (used at night under night cream), but beyond that my forehead will rash and cause breakouts. I still keep using because I'm hoping with 2 times per week I'll still be able to reap some of the benefits, but a word of caution to sensitive skinned people.

Retinol - helps keep my skin virtually wrinkle-free.
I've been using this serum for 2 years now and I've not formed any fine wrinkles that I can see. It's a great product. It's gentle enough to use it every day.

So far so good
I've only used this for a few weeks so it's too early to see much difference yet. I do think my overall tone is slightly better now though. Will keep using to see if it continues.

Great starter retinol
I had used retinol before but the brand I used no longer makes it. I wanted to start using it again but wasn't sure where to start- I'm so happy I picked this product. It's really easy to apply (not a serum, it's more like a moisturizer) and it's mild. Can't wait to move up to the next strength!

Plenty Effective
I've never had success with full strength retinol products, and this .25 formulation is effective without irritating and peeling my skin. It makes my skin look great! I take a few nights off from it each week, just to be safe. It's the one non negotiable product in my skincare regimen.

Love this product!
Can I just pour Retinol all over my life? This stuff is THAT GOOD! I wish I would have started using this sooner! It's been a little over 6 months of using the retinol .25 and I've seen a HUGE improvement. Definitely a must have in your skin care regimen!

good starter retinol
This has lasted me a long time, as I'm still on the bottle I bought in June. I knew there would be an adjustment period when starting a retinol for the first time. I also have very sensitive skin. The first couple weeks my skin became very dry and irritable, with red and flaky patches. However, it went away quickly. I now use it 2-3 times a week. I apply moisturizer before and after. Definitely use only the recommended amount. Overall I do think it has made my skin slightly drier than it used to be, but the anti-aging benefits are worth it, and it also has been very effective in preventing acne. As soon as I finish the bottle, I'll go up to the next in strength.
