Gentle Retinol

Recently upgraded from Skinceuticals .3 to this, and am using it every night for about.a week. It's been a gentle enough so far that I've had no redness or flaking. I can't say that would be the case if your skin was not used to a lower dosage, but it's been nice to not go through an initial drying period in the first week. Skin looks fresher since upgrading as well, but am noticing some purging.

Enhances skin tone

I have been using this for about 10 years . My dermatologist recommended it . It is a must for your skin care routine . It evens out tone and texture. If you are new to retinol start with the .25 and work your way up . I tried 1.0 my skin peeled a lot and got red so for me the .5 is perfect

Great Retinol

I’ve used this retinol for about 7 years now. I only use it every other day because I have sensitive skin.  It’s kept me feeling young.

Revisiting a favorite

After having microneedling done, my skin was entirely too sensitive to go back to 1% Tret. I forgot how much I loved this product - gentle but so effective!

Loving it so far

I bought my first SkinMedica retinol in the 0.25 back in December, tolerated it well, and decided to move up to the 0.5 for the next bottle.  The 0.25 bottle lasted me nearly 3 months, so I'm hoping the 0.5 lasts just as long!  I personally have not experienced any irritation from either bottle! My skin is on the drier side and is fairly sensitive/somewhat acne-prone, and my skin seems to love this retinol.  I already am noticing much quicker skin turnover and feel like it has helped reduce scarring noticeably already within the first week of use.  Wish it weren't as pricey but still very happy!

LOVE

It took my skin the 2 weeks or so to get used to the retinol, but I feel like I have results after a few months! Getting compliments on my skin like never before!

Retinol

I recently upped to this product from the .25 version. It is definitely drying but works well when paired with a thicker moisturizer.
