Such an effective retinol and wonderful formulation
I have worked my way up in terms of retinols and had just finished up Paula’s Choice 1.0 and wanted something a bit stronger. I am really impressed with the Skinmedica retinol. I was able to see smoother texture in a couple weeks and definitely a glow after 1 use. I have forehead lines and this after 5 months of use has helped to make the lines appear fainter. If you have sensitive skin, you may want to transition from the lower strengths and work your way up to 1.0.

Works!
I really like this brand and try to buy when it is on sale. It does cause some dryness but I use quite a bit of moisturizer as well which seems to help. A little goes a long way and I use only 3x per week, alternating with an exfoliant.

Have not seen result
But I'm hoping that when I am halfway done with the bottle, I'll see result.

Face Game Changer!
Absolutely love this retinol! I purchased the 0.5 first and used that for about 6 months before moving forward with the 1.0. With the acclimation, I really didn't suffer with any irritation after bumping up the concentration! I switched to this retinol from the Olay 24hr one, and I have to say the quality is much better. My adult acne around my jawline finally quit coming back, and I no longer get these horrible sebaceous cysts on my face (which would take forever to go away)!!! I have rosacea, so I only apply once every 2-3 days with moisturizer.

Great product
One of the best retinols I've used. Ramp up to 1% as your skin allows. This complex is rich and not overdrying. It has shown a significant decrease in shallow wrinkles and has evened my skin tone. I'm on my 3rd bottle and will continue to purchase. Recommend.

Great Product
All of the Skinmedica line is wonderful. This 1% Retinol is very easy on the face. Absorbs very well and isn't harsh like some other products. I recommend.
