Alpha Skin Care Enhanced Wrinkle Repair Cream, Anti-Aging Formula, 0.15% Retinol, Vitamins A, C & E, Reduces Lines & Wrinkles, All Skin Types, 1.05 Oz, White

I have 5 Children and one of them is at the age to start using retinol.I have been using retinol for years either Image or Skin Medica the highest percentage but I know anyone new to Retinol should start at the lowest percentage so since my Mother uses alot of products in this line I decided to buy this .So far there has been no reaction at all.No burning or peeling so while this seems to be working well at least keeping acne flare ups away and keeping the face moisturized we will continue with this a few months than go up to the next strength.The price is unbelievably afforadable compared to what I pay for mine and most likley this probably is more effective.I may switch to this brand very soon and use in rotation with my prescription Retinol as well which I rotate with my brands.

This retinol deliver results, with consistent use my crow's feet and laugh lines is fading and have overall bright complexion and even skin tone. I would like to add it helps diminish my acne scars as well. I'm in my 40's and I plan on forever using this product and will 100% recommend to others.

These products are awesome! I'm 63 and pass for 53 and I give the credit to alpha products. I cannot use this cream every night, as it can cause skin tenderness. Skin will peel but only a little. What's exposed is fresh new skin. I wash my face and allow to dry thoroughly. I apply and give it a chance to soak in before applying my moisturizer. Don't be afraid to put on skin around eyes. That's where I see the most benefit. I also have deep wrinkles in my forehead, and I can tell a noticeable difference with continued use. You cannot beat the price! Why spend a lot of money when you can purchase a product at a fraction of the cost that works just as well as expensive products?

The last time I'd tried a retinol product I was in my 20s and it left my face looking and feeling like leather. Literally like leather. So, for years after that nightmarish experience, understandably, I thought retinol wasn't for me. It took ten years to realize I'd used it inappropriately by slathering it on in huge amounts and giving my skin no time to adjust. I was motivated to research retinoids again because the fine lines were beginning their inevitable creep. With slight apprehension, I found this Alpha product and took the plunge. This is a great beginner's retinol! The price makes it a steal. If you exercise patience, your skin will not turn to leather, I promise. I started by applying it once every three days, then every two days, until my skin was finally acclimated without peeling or redness. This process took about six weeks. I now apply this every night around my eyes and every other night over my entire face. As somebody put it in another review, this is too "hardcore" on my neck. The irritation never stopped and I don't use it there anymore. But, I've found that I can tolerate a leave-on AHA there (such as the awesome ones Alpha makes). I purchased the tube of this stuff way back in April and it's now November. I'm only just running out! Over the last six months, I haven't seen new lines under my eyes and the ones I had look less noticeable. An annoying horizontal line on the bridge of my nose has vanished. I just expect results to get even better the longer I use a retinol treatment. I'm even noticing slight improvement in old acne scars! Just add an exfoliant and a quality sunscreen to your regimen, and it's a recipe for happy skin. I feel those are the essentials of a skincare regimen for thirtysomethings.I give this four stars instead of five only because I think the addition of more anti-irritants and some peptides would put it over the top.

I love this product.

Love Alpha's products - very good for the money. This product, specifically, though is a little too strong on my skin. I can use it maybe a few times a week and not around my eyes or else it causes noticeable and lasting irritation. Again, I've had amazing success with their other products. But, if you have sensitive skin, you may think twice. However, for the price, it may be worth a try!

I have used this for many years and feel it has kept my skin looking younger. Be sure to wear sunscreen over it if wearing during the day.

I’ve used this for years and I get many compliments on my skin (some of this is genetics, of course and use of sunscreen and hats). They did a package makeover a couple of years ago and the prices went up, but it’s still the most affordable product out there that actually states the percentage of active ingredient on the product. I’ve switched to their retinol product with age, but recently the dermatologist said I could use both, so I am even more pleased that these products come at a reasonable price. I have attempted to ascertain the percentage of active ingredients in a number of similar products on Amazon that sell for up to six times the price, with no luck. Cosmetics regulation is very lax, so buyer beware.
