Unbeatable

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I started with 0.25 and went up to 0.5 after finishing the bottle - I noticed my skin was brighter and smoother after the first use! Will continue buying.

Love this product!

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

After one bottle of 0.25, I switched to the 0.5 and jumped right into nightly use. I've had no irritation and definitely feels like my skin is tightening little by little. I've noticed most improvement on my forehead and crows feet.

No burning

Started from 0.5oz. I have sensitive skin but this product doesn't burn my skin like others do.

Great product

This is my fountain of youth. I had to work up to this strength slowly, and I hope to get to the 1.0 solution soon.

This retinol doesn't bother my sensitive skin! I'm excited to build up the tolerance to move to the 1.0 retinol in the future.

My skin couldn't tolerate

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I was consistently using 0.25 daily and therefore tried to gradually add this in. Unfortunately my skin could not tolerate the increased concentration. Was having the typical dryness/peeling.

Quick Results

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

This product really smoothed my skin and got rid of these little white bumps I had on my chin from wearing masks. I was a little too aggressive at first and my skin did become a little irritated and peeled, but the end result was better than what I expected.

Love the product

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

Helps keep my skin smooth. No reactions, works great. Hard to get the last bit out of the bottle when it is almost empty, but other than that I love it.

Great for sensitive skin

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I have used other Retinol products that have irritated my sensitive skin. Skin Medica Retinol .05 works well, and has not caused any skin irritation.

My favorite retinol!

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I love all things Skinmedica but I especially love their retinol! I've been using this retinol now for two years and it works beautifully with my skin. I don't get flaky.
