Apply a single pump to face in the evening. If you have never used a retinol product before, begin by limiting use to twice a week, gradually increasing frequency to every other night, and then advancing to each evening or as tolerated.

The best retinol
After listening to a podcast about skincare, I heard how amazing this product is. At first, I did not want to spend the money but I truly feel that it is worth it! I have been using the product for two weeks and am already seeing the faint lines in my forehead fade a bit. The best thing about this product is that it does not cause my skin to be dry or red. I started off with three times a week and now am at four. I also feel that this product will last a very long time because you only use a pea sized amount. I am looking forward to trying the 1.0 next.

Smooth Skin and Fights Acne
I love this product! It is a must for any skin care regimen. Not only does it micro exfoliate dead skins cells to make your skin smoother it also really help with keeping my acne under control!

Much better for me than the 1.0
I went through a bottle of the 0.25 Retinol and stupidly, ignored the advice to go up gradually. Instead I went right for the 1.0, which led to very flaky skin. I went back and got the 0.5 and have had no problems at all. It makes a difference in the texture and appearance of my skin - I can especially tell fewer visible lines first thing in the morning.

Great Retinol
I had previously tried the 1.0 from the dr office and found it was too much for my skin. The .5 is perfect!

Age Defense Retinol Complex .5
I love this product; it helps keep my skin youthful. My dermatologist has recommended this product for me and I have been using it for 9+ years now.

Still getting used to it
I think this product is going to work well for me, but right now I'm having trouble getting past the redness and flaking it is causing. I'm only using it once a week at the moment to see if I can get my skin habituated to its use. The formulation feels great on my skin.

Great product, just ease into it!
This is my first experience with retinol and I decided to try it after listening to Elisabeth Smith PA on the Off the Vine podcast. You definitely have to ease into this retinol because it is high quality. I use it once every other night and honestly I probably should have started with the .25. I have very sensitive skin so it has taken 3 months for my skin to stop peeling after using it (nothing dramatic except for the first 2 weeks), but it is so worth it! I'm loving my skin!

Not a bad start to retinol
This was my first introduction to retinol products. Of course with any retinol you have to beginning skin adjustments, which were totally tolerable with this product. It doesn't feel heavy on my skin, and doesn't burn or anything of the sort. I think I have noticed a slight improvement in my skin since starting this product. So overall I think if you are a retinol newbie like me, and don't have super super sensitive skin, this is an ok place to start!

Good retinol that isn't overly drying
This is great for people who can't handle prescription-strength retinol. It doesn't dry out my skin, and I like the pump rather than a tube.
