From Sandra Lee, MD
AKA Dr. Pimple Popper
I recommend retinol for almost everyone because it has so many benefits, from acne to aging skin. It should only be used at night and is very effective at exfoliating and evening out the complexion. It renews skin by promoting cell turnover, and in turn works to refine pores.

At 75 it makes me look young!!! My skin is soft. I use it every night
E
have been using this product for over a year and it has been key to my skincare routine. In my early 20’s I started to get severe hormonal acne and this along with other products in the acne line was the only thing that worked for me to see results. I went to a dermatologist, started getting facials, did loads of my own research on products and nothing worked until I started using this.
M
I ordered this today because of all the lovely reviews I’ve read here. I don’t have gory looking skin until allergy season or the summertime hits in the desert, then its ghastly. The age spots and wrinkles are coming on hot n heavy. So I’m relying on your reviews to steer me in the right direction. I ordered the retinol and the dark sot corrector. Wish me luck. I don’t want to have to wear a mask the rest of my life to conceal the hideousness old age brings.

I am 76 and this is the gentlest product for aging skin. I have never been able to use moisturizer without outbreaks but I can use this one. I wish it came in a larger size!
J
What sorcery is this? I’m almost 57 with occasional adult acne which irritates me beyond belief. Of course this concoction has helped with this but I’ve also not seen or felt my skin in this condition since, ever? And I’ve always had some kind of skin care routine. Bravo!

Non irritating easy to use

Love the texture of the product and how easy it is to use. My skin looks amazing!
