Key Benefits:
- Enhances skin tone and texture
- Boosts more resilient skin
- Diminishes appearance of fine lines and coarse wrinkles
Apply in the evening after cleansing and toning and before applying your moisturizer. If a retinol product has never been used before, begin twice a week 2-3 days apart, gradually increasing frequency to every other night, and then advancing to each evening or as tolerated. Apply to the entire face. Avoid getting in eyes. If contact occurs, rinse eyes thoroughly with water.

Gentle Retinol
I have very sensitive skin so I was hesitant about using a retinol at all. I started use of this one slowly, every couple of days, but I found I was actually able to use it almost daily without an issue.

Good product
This has been really great so far. I can't use it every day yet but even so I'm still seeing results. The flakiness I get is a bummer but to be expected. Just have to get through it. Overall I've noticed a big difference in the texture of my skin. It's so smooth, soft and glowy. (Whem I'm not flaking) I can't remember the last time it looked this good. (I'm 37 btw) Its also already helping with fine lines. They're def less noticable. Overall I really think this is a great formula. Great ingredients to go along with the retinol too. Ceramides, squalane, squalene, vit e, etc. You really can't ask for more. I'll def be repurchasing when I'm about to run out. (Btw, I initially bought the. 5 strength and tried using it for about 8 months but never could get past using it more than 2 times a week without flaking. (Dermatologists say it's better to use a lower strength every day than a stronger one twice a week. ) So I finally gave up and bought this one about a month ago and I definitely feel like I'll be able to get up to using it 5 days a week in a few months. The .5 was just too strong to start out with. And I wouldn't say I have sensitive skin.)

gentle and effective
this has retinol farther up the list than its competitors that's a good thing. works but I may need to move up to the 0.5 concentration, this is gentle enough to use every night on my skin and I enjoy the texture of the product as well.

Great Retinol
I have used this for years and started very slowly due to my sensitive skin. It has never caused peeling or stinging and the morning after using this, my skin is noticeably smoother and refreshed looking. This is an effective retinol in my opinion. Others I have tried either irritate my skin or have no noticeable results.

Holy grail
I never write reviews. I am often "that" person that tries products with rave reviews that seem to work for everybody, but never for me. My skin chemistry changed last year and suddenly became sensitive and broke out in stubborn acne. This product definitely dried out my skin at first so I gradually worked my way to using nightly. I even gave up on it a couple times. But now, it's the only thing that keeps my pimps at bay. Went 2 weeks without when I ran out of my bottle and my skin reverted back to its irritated, bumpy skin ways. I decided I cannot live without it. I often tell my fiancé- if the zombie apocalypse happens, we WILL be making pit stop at the skinmedica warehouse to stock up :-)

Age defense retinol complex .25
Love this product. I just turned 50 and decided to tone down the amount of retinol I use every night. I am very pleased with the results. No irritation, even skin tone, smooth lines and even some tightening is very noticeable. Skin Medica products are the best.

Great for beginners and those with sensitive skin
I just started incorporating retinol in my nightly routine every other night and I can already see a difference in my skin tone.

Great product
My dermatologist recommended this to me. I use the lowest dose of .25 and it keeps my skin clear. If my skin is extra dry due to weather I might skip a day but otherwise I use it every day and haven't had an issues.
