Great for aging skin
I've been using this for a year and can really see the differences . Would not recommend for first time users of retinol . .

not a product tor me
This was way too harsh on my skin. After researching more about retinol you shouldn't use this product long term because it will thin your skin and cause cell damage.

Love This Product!
I initially got this from my dermatologist's office last year to use before a series of chemical peels. The peels didn't work that well but I'm still using the retinol and was excited to find it at dermstore.com at a cheaper price. I'm using this in combination with some other products to fade some stubborn melasma. So far so good!

Lovely retinol
I love the SkinMedica line of retinol. I started off with the 0.5 and after using it up, I purchased the 1.0. I decided I was above following directions (insert eye roll) and jumped in head first using it every day. I had a decent amount of peeling (nothing too extreme, probably because I had already been using the 0.5) but I had pretty bad stinging whenever I used other active products like my SkinCeuticals CE Ferulic. It went away after about 2 weeks, but I would still suggest starting gradually as the instructions say :) Now that my skin is used to the new percentage, I'm loving the results and how my skin is starting to look and feel.

Great Retinol!
I love Skin Medica's Retinol Complex as it doesn't leave me as dry and flaky as other brands I've tried.

Quick results!
I have been using this for about 2 weeks and love it! I have had some minor peeling but nothing as drastic as I had feared. I already notice my fine lines diminishing and overall tone improving.

Great so far
just started using it, so can't tell much difference on my face yet, but I feel great the morning after I use this, makes my skin soft and fuller. It dries up quickly and give you that tightness, little itchy feeling and redness, so make sure to hydrate.
