Works well
I am a fan of most SkinMedica products including this. I use a few times a week and my 67 year old skin looks and feels great.

Great retinol
I have acne prone skin and have start using this product it does take about 2 weeks to start seeing the drastic results but you can certainly notice the difference. I did start using this product every other night and started building it to every night along with a rose hip oil serum since after using it does dry out my skin. The first two times I used a felt like a burning sensation in my face and experienced some redness since then I have not experienced that any more and very pleased with the results so far

Great product!
I ordered this awhile back but still have plenty of product left. I typically mix one pump of this retinol with my night cream and then apply to my face. I have sensitive skin and the mixed application helps with the usual dryness that generally occurs when using a retinol product. I find this brand to be less irritating overall and love what it does for my skin. My skin glows with this stuff!!!

Amazing product
I use skinmedica retinol 1.0 every night and I’m happy with my skin. I’m 57 and people tell me I look 37. I’m asked often what I use on my face. My complexion is smooth, dewy and bright. I started using skinmedica because I had melasma in my 30’s and now I don’t wear foundation to cover any flaws. This product is amazing and I’ll use til I can’t use it anymore.

The strongest in a market
I have used Obagi retinol cream and loved it. But reading all the amazing reviews I had to try Skin Medica. It's very strong, my skin was used to using Retinol every night, with this one I had to cut back to 3 nights a week. Which I love, also my age spots start getting lighter and lighter. This is my new favorite.

nighttime routine must-have
I use this every night before my SkinMedica TNS Advanced + Serum to help prevent wrinkles/aging. My dermatologist recommended that adding a retinol to my skincare routine in my late 20s early 30s would help prevent wrinkles and keep my skin looking youthful!

Wonderful!
I love the smooth, light, and creamy feel of this product! It took a little while to gradually get used to the 1.0 strength, but it now leaves my skin soft and velvety smooth. I will be buying this on a regular basis from now on.

Best Retinol
I love this Retinol! I use at night as the first step in my nighttime routine. The strength is perfect for my skin. My fine lines are much less noticeable and my skin looks so smooth. I highly recommend.
