I think I like this? Don't know that it's changed my skin in a life-changing way, but it's been a good change of pace from other brands I've been trying.

The best

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

This is probably the nicest retinol you can get on the market. Makes your skin feel nice without drying it and is strong. Works really well, I like it better than prescription retinol.

Wonderful skin treatment

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

Another recommendation by my derm. This treatment doesn't irritate my skin (I built up from 0.5 formulation).

Made my skin flaky

1 stars out of a maximum of 5

This product made my skin super flaky, even when limiting to 1 time per week. Previously had used Skinceuticals 0.3 and 0.5, so I was expecting good tolerance. I had to stop using it.

Wonderful!

Not overly drying due to it being a retinol complex. Doesn’t irritate areas that are prone to redness.

Solid product

4 stars out of a maximum of 5

High strength retinol. I have high skin tolerance to retinol so I have no  skin reaction to this product. Definitely firm up & clears up skin.  Though it does not  have a wow factor in am like the glow I wake up with after using Sunday Riley high dose retinol.  I trust skin medical products to be top of the line effective.

Works on my neck

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I had to go back up to 1.0 because my neck has gotten so bad. I think this is helping the ugly sagging that has happened as much as it can be helped without surgery.

Best of the best

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

This is the best retinol off the counter compared to the prescribed retinol from my dermatologist. I've been ordering this retinol on repeat for the past 3 years, and will be be part of my every night skincare routine.
