5 out of 5 stars No irritation, no problems   July 10, 2010
Rebecca B Graziano
I have been using the 0.5 Retinol version, for 1 month, easing into it. Now I use it every night. I have very sensitive skin, but have had no problems with this product. (It has hyaluronic acid in the formula, which prevents dryness associated with retinol use.) I broke out at first, but I am also doing IPL treatments, which might be why I broke out.

I recommend starting with 0.5 (thats what my dermatologist said). I will next purchase the 1.0 version and update my review. The texture is very soft, smooth, easy to apply. It even feels like a moisturizer.

*also, no problem with the pump, I really like it, actually. It only dispenses a tiny amount with each "pump".

I think I am seeing a slight improvement in sun damage and skin tone, but this product makes my skin peel, so I am not sure if it's worth it. My makeup covers a lot of my sun damage, but the peeling shows through makeup. I doubt I will order this again.

I've been using Retinol 1.0 for almost a year and it works for me. I have mix skin, some big pores and occasional breaks. Before I wouldn't leave the house without foundation or a cap to cover my face. Now after a year I can see how my skin has improved, small pores, my skin tone is more even, less acne marks. I've been using it every night with Obagi 3 Clear (Hydroquinona) to get rid of the sun spots and then I wait half an hour and apply phloretin by skinceuticals, it works wonder. In the morning after cleaning my face I reapply Phloretin and later a moisturizer and sunblocker. When using Retinol 1.0, your face will be peeling like a snake for the first 2 weeks, your face will become red and if you use more than a pea size cream you'll burn your skin and it will be itching you for 3 or 4 days. Always wash your hands after using retinol otherwise you take the risk of applying the lefyover of your fingers on your body and next day it will itchy badly. I always buy this product from the skinceuticals website after save some money bought it once from Ebay and didn't do anything to my face. I'm not saying that the Amazon Seller's product is not good, but I do recommend to not buy it from Ebay.

My skin does appear to be smoother & the product also clears up any pimples that pop up. I'm in my 30s and have pretty good skin but I have noticed signs of aging. It does leave dry patches from time to time but nothing that doesn't go away in a short amount of time.

The research I did online said Retinol is a good product for smoother skin. I would purchase this again or even try to get a stronger Retinol prescription from a doctor.



5 out of 5 stars Super soft skin   April 22, 2010

I have been using this for over a month now and the results are amazing. My skin is softer and my sun spots have noticibly lightened. I was a previous Retin A user and I find this much easier on my skin. I have NOT had problems with the pump.
