Better than prescription

I love this retinol! I had a prescription for Retin-A, but it was too harsh on my skin. This has helped my skin without the harshness.

I have only been using this for about a month but have seen results. I did experience a small amount of peeling at first (using 2x/week initially as directed) but that was easily cleared up with moisturizer and has now gone away. My skin seems smoother and clearer.

I have really noticed a difference with using the skinmedica at night. I use it about 3 times a week since my skin is still getting used to retinol. Makes my skin clearer and smaller pores!!

I've tried to tolerate my RX retinol but I just couldn't handle it so I broke down and purchased this. Still see results without the constant peeling and sensitivity I had from my RC retinol!

This is my first time using a retinol product. I've only been using for 1 week (2x as directed), but already skin looks more glowy. No irritation at all so far. Excited to see how it will look in a few weeks!

Great product. I need to use only 3x per week as my skin is too dry for every day or every other day use.
