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.

burns
So, this just keeps burning my face. I have tried to go slow, use it once a week trying to build up tolerance but no matter what, my skin just get irritated. I am so bummed as it was quite an expensive product that I am unable to use.

I’ve been using this brand of retinol for over a year. I love it! Make sure to start with every other day when using it. I did have mild redness and dryness but that went away after a week. Definitely recommend

Love it so far
So far I’m really loving this product. I only use it 2x per week right now because of how strong it is but I can’t wait to work my way up to using it everyday.

Night time routine
I use Skin Medica Retinol Complex 1.0 every other night. It helps keep my skin smooth and blemish free. I also like the pump dispenser for hygiene reasons. Another plus is the cap unscrews so you can get to the residual lotion left in the container when it is empty.

My Dermatologist approved
She said this was a quality product that will definitely help with fine lines and my crow's feet. Rather than getting fillers, I should use this product for at least 6 months to see a difference in my skin.

Great retinol
I am 67 yrs old and been using this retinol for 5 yrs. I use the 1.0 percent, and get compliments on my skin texture. I also have very few winkles. I like how the product is kept safe from air in the pump bottle. You only use 1 pump for your whole face, so economically it lasts a long time. I have sensitive skin, and no problems with this product. I like how its fragrance free.

Best retinol
This retinol formula is worth every penny. I’ve tried everything from drugstore brands to prescription and keep coming back to the SkinMedica 1.0. The formula is creamy but doesn’t leave behind a greasy residue. One important note: the 1.0 is very potent and if your skin is sensitive or you have no prior experience with retinol, starting with a lower concentration is wise. And make sure to wear your sunscreen daily!

Very gentle
Sometimes Retinol can irritate skin when you first use, but this was very gentle on my skin and I could use it daily almost immediately
