    I've used cheap retinols in the past and can sense a great difference between the overall result. Skinceuticals uses higher grade ingredients. Happier with this than the knock-offs I used in the...

    This wasnt horrible, but for the price I expected more. It made my skin really oily during the day. I'd rather stick with my RoC night cream.

    I've been using this once a week for 6 weeks, and found that it makes my fair skin (with mild rosacea) red and blotchy. My skin doesn't tolerate it, and it also caused some cheek pimples which I...

    Not impressed. The retinol most definitely resurfaced my skin, and the peeling was relatively minimal. However, I was left with blotchy skin and little bumpy break-outs. I'm guessing the culprit...
