Evens out redness
Once your skin adjusts you won't get irritated by it! I use it with my other Skin Medica products! So great!

Love this product!
This is a great product. I started with the 0.5 strength and when that was finished purchased this. Make sure to use a moisturizer over this product at night.

Moisturize!!
I have been using this product for a couple weeks. I began once a week and recently increased to twice this week. During the "retinol uglies" phase I decided to not wear makeup and keep my skin moisturized with Cetaphil body moisturizer 3 times a day. (My face was a little shiny after lunch everyday) I have experienced some dry patches and redness, but know if I stick with it it will all be worth it! I use the skinmedica 0.5 which I received as a bonus product with this around my eyes.

Never received product
Like product . Ordered 3 weeks ago. Received email with confirmation and tracking details. Eight days later still no product. Called to inquire about it and was told they were moving storage areas and it would be shipped shortly and because of the delay they would discount it for me. As of today still no product and no response to email follow up. First and last time using this company

Great Retinol Seeum
This is a great Retinol Serum! It absorbs easily and works really well. Remember to wear Sunscreen during the day and to only use it at Night.

This is great
I have delicate aging skin. I have tried several other retinol products and this is the only one my skin will tolerate and it works! I use it every other day . On opposite days I use a very light peel. I am 65 and most people think I am around 50.

Great product but harsh
I would not start at this level. It can be deceptive, you can use it for two days and be fine and then suddenly your skin is red all over and is EXTREMELY sensitive. It takes a while to come back from this, so take some time to put some thought into how you are going to start with this. The product is amazing and really does what it claims. I would just recommend started at .25, stay at that for two weeks, then do one night with .5 and wait and do another three days with .25 ext. Just remember, be smart about it.

Great product, use carefully
My skin can handle a lot. The SkinMedica 0.5 Retinol did not really do much, so I bought the 1.0. Although I can use it repeated nights, I have to be careful and take notice when my skin starts to get dry or irritated, especially in the winter. Overall a very good product. It takes awhile for me to notice results, which for me is on my melasma. I will not see a difference for awhile, and then will notice that another small section of the hyper pigmented skin has been lightened. When the pump will not dispense any more product, unscrew the cap and you will find more goodness left in there!
