I bought it before and have been using it. It does help with fine lines and it does help so you wont get to many more. My face feels smooth and brighter. Great product. However do not use on eyes

Im in my mid 30s and havent always used products to preserve the youthful look of my skin (I havent always worn sunscreen and there was a stretch when I didnt wash my face at night!). Now that Im in my 30s, my negligence is catching up with me and Im starting to notice....WRINKLES. As a result, Im using products with a little bit of retinol and it does WONDERS. My skin hides the wrinkles, looks more taut, and retains moisture alot better because the skin reproduces quicker. I do have to exfoliate a little to get the buildup of dead skin off, so the retinol serum is absorbed. I use this serum nightly and my skin is thanking me!

I dont understand how this can cost so much and be a fraction as effective as retin a products. That said, it does work - I had to start slowly with this product just like with Retin A prescriptions, and use extra moisturizer to prevent flaking. But at this price point, why not get a prescription? Not sure I get it.

Wonderful

I used Retin A in my 30s for adult onset acne. It improved my skin so much but was/is prescription only. Retinol is a less aggressive but still very effective ingredient and this 1% product WORKS!

It comes in a pretty large container and well worth the money IMHO. The consistency is not too thin or too creamy, it is perfect for smoothing over the skin. This product goes on easily and absorbs quickly with no stickiness. It is not perfumed and frankly, I didnt really notice any kind of scent from it. You dont need; and shouldnt use, a LOT of it, just enough to cover your face.

I have very sensitive skin and wasnt sure how my skin would react at first. It did make my skin unhappy at first, with lots of redness and dry skin when using as directed. If you have sensitive skin, i recommend using once a week/10 days for a month or so, then twice a week to let your skin adjust to it. Alternatively, you can start with their .5% product then uplevel to this 1% product after a couple of months. Once you do start using it regularly, your skin will start to look amazing. I really can tell a difference. My fine lines are gone and my skin tone looks better. I am 54 and my skin looks great. If only they had a product to get rid of undereye bags!

Since it is a Retin product, your skin will be more sensitive to sunlight. You should be wearing a good facial sunscreen of at least 50 SPF while using this.
