    This product works!

    by ATXWendy (8 reviews)
    This product stimulates collagen, which apparently my 36-year old skin was sorely lacking! I've been using the 0.5 strength version of this product for about 3 months now and my skin looks amazing - it's firmer and smoother and more even. My friends have even commented on how great my skin looks! My only caution is that... it can take some getting used to: initially I could only tolerate it once a week because it caused peeling and some minor irritation (probably due to my trying to scrub the dead skin off). I'm now up to twice a week with little or no peeling. Imagine if I used it more often! Note: the peeling is not an intended side-effect, it just happens to some folks with sensitive skin.

    worth it!

    as you know this product has the highest concentration of retinol available without prescription and i think it is worth the extra money. i do recommend that you start out with the .5 version so as not to irritate or burn the skin. but overall this left my skin smooth and even. i even had a coworker ask me what i put on my... skin because she wanted to buy it! aside from a little itching (i didnt scratch of course) driving me crazy, it did what it was supposed to do...i just wish that the bottle was bigger!! : ) May 16, 2008, 6:29 pm

    Takes time, but is worth it

    by 8westwood (14 reviews)
    Trusted Review
    This is an excellent product but it definitely takes some time to work up to using it every night and seeing real results. When I first started using the .5% serum it actually burned my skin, despite the fact that I only used it a couple times a week. Now I am using the 1% every night, without any adverse reaction (asi...de from increased dryness), and my skin looks great. If you can tolerate this product, it will make your pores look smaller, your skin look tighter, and your spots and freckles will fade noticeably. It's also great for decongesting acne-prone skin and clearing up blemishes more quickly. I would recommend making sure that you use a more intense moisturizer when you use this product, and not combining this with other antiaging products containing glycolic or other acids until your skin adjusts. And of course, you definitely need to wear a high spf sunblock during the day. January 3, 2008, 1:55 pm

    Awesome Product

    by Janice25 (55 reviews)

    I hope they never discontinue this product. It works great. Great anti-ageing product and also helps acne prone skin. One word of caution -- use as directed by your skin care profesional -- if you use too much (or too many days in a row) your skin can become too dry and flaky. December 9, 2007, 8:43 am

    Really works!

    by chr845 (3 reviews)
    I apply this product nightly and within a week or two see a renewed glow to my skin. You may experience some flakiness at first but it abates as your skin gets accustomed to it. It can be drying so I use a daily dry skin moisturizer to offset that effect. December 2, 2007, 11:34 am

    Outstanding Performance!

    by Ravendreamer77 (1 review)
    At age 53 it seems like I woke up one morning and realized my face was really showing visible signs of aging. I felt so OLD! I researched products on TotalBeauty and decided to give this product a try. I was skeptical at first, because I was experiencing some flaking the first 2 weeks. I decided to stick with my regimen ...and I can say without a doubt, this product erased years off my face in a relatively short time. I see myself using this product for years to come. It has given me a new fresher look and a new fresher outlook on life! When you look good, you feel good! July 10, 2008, 6:31 am

    Best OTC Retinol Cream!

    by SweetLeilani (1 review)
    This product has the highest concentration of retinol allowed in an OTC product and really creates results. I began using this 2X per week and experienced some mild flaking for the first 2 weeks due to the exfoliation. One of the few brands to actually list the concentration of retinol. Great product!

    Love this product. Retinol is drying, so definitely use a good moisturizer too. November 29, 2007, 6:32 pm

    #1 skincare product

    by gracegal (3 reviews)
    This is my desert island product- I get more noticeable results from this than any other product. Works great on skin discoloration and makes my pores appear smaller. November 29, 2007, 9:59 am

    Best Product Ever

    by Elsie (20 reviews)
    I LOVE this stuff. It will zap a zit literally overnight. It made my skin so even after all of the sun damage I had. This is a miracle potion. I'm pregnant now so I can't use it. But I'm really looking forward to taking advantage of this product again. If you have very sensitive skin, first start with the .5 version o...f the retinol, and when your skin gets acclimated move up to this formula. You may even only need to use it every other day, but definitely use it BEFORE you go to bed, and use sunscreen during the day as it makes your skin much more sensitive to sunlight.
