I don't think that's SkinMedica

I've been using this product for years. I have always bought from my dermatologist but after moving I decided to order this product from this seller. This item does not look like a product I have used for many years. First, the color isn't bright yellow like my dermatologist's. (This product is white with a slight yellow tint.) This product has a different smell and texture. When I applied it to my face, the product didn't have the "tingling" that always comes with retinol. I am very…

Pros
  • The best
Cons
  • I vaguely remember

This is an excellent product for smoothing wrinkles and tightening the skin. I've been using it for over 3 years now and get tons of compliments on my 50 year old skin. I tried Retin-A and it was too strong. This product strikes a great balance of very active/effective and doesn't dry my skin out to the point of embarrassment or worse, new fine lines from dryness. BUT - PAY ATTENTION TO THE COLOR OF THE GOODS. If it's yellow, then be careful. I think I read that this meant it was oxidized. I'm…

Pros
  • Permanent Finish
Cons
  • Damaged

The best serum lotion with retinol!

I have purchased this product both from the dermatologist and here at Revain on a number of occasions and it has been the same excellent product each time. Just do some research on the sellers before you decide on one. As you start using this, you will see your skin peel off a little, revealing new, plump, smooth skin. 1% is a high concentration and if you have very sensitive skin (I don't) you can start with 0.25 or 0.5% concentrations to lighten your skin. My fine lines and crow's feet have…

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Unreliable

Strong but works with serums

I've been using the lighter version of Retinol for about 6 months so figured I'd be ready to step up to 1% strength. Wow I used it every day after washing my face with a face brush and using toner. I have burning and dry skin. I had to wash my face with cold water. That being said, I read the instructions afterwards and learned how to use it properly. I wash my face with a cleanser for dry skin, aging skin, use my toner and then apply a moisturizer before this cream. No burning issues and it…

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Ugly packaging

Get what you need from a dermatologist or even Sona MedSpa

This is not the same as what you get from a dermatologist. It was diluted with some kind of lotion. I got this because I was traveling and I ran out and when I got it the lotion was actually a different color than what my dermatologist gave me. When I then applied it, I got pimples because the lotion didn't dry out my skin but made it greasy. My dermatologist sells it for $100 and it's worth buying the correct remedy rather than a diluted product. It's for your FACE, so it's really IMPORTANT.

Pros
  • Good stuff
Cons
  • Nothing here

Holy Grail Product: Skin Care

This amazing product is the only product I will ALWAYS prioritize and spend money on. I can definitely tell the difference when I use it and when I don't. I've been fortunate to have aged well up until now (I'm 30), so I don't actually have any wrinkles, just fine lines on my forehead. When I use that, it basically disappears. My skin is glowing and looks really soft and smooth. I mainly use it as a prophylactic to slow down significant aging. A word of warning, if you have not used strong…

Pros
  • Variety
Cons
  • Not Bad

It has been amazing for my skin after a month of use.

I made sure I bought from amazon.com and not a third party. The bottle I received was the real one, not a fake. It's been amazing for my skin and after a month of use I'm starting to see great results: pore reduction, softer and smoother skin, lightening of hyperpigmentation, fewer breakouts, reduced fine lines. I had the usual peeling and flaking that comes with skin adjusting to retinol use and gentle exfoliation and very rich moisturizers were very important. This 1.0 version may be too…

Pros
  • Regular Price
Cons
  • Discontinued

Attention Beauty and Personal Care

I have some bottles from the dermatologist's office. I thought I found a great resource here, but the color is nowhere near the same. It's very yellow and you can't feel it at all. The bottle is full but it seems old and not in the best shape. The packaging has not been tampered with and just like the doctors, but it's not the same.

  • Free for educational purposes
