this product does not contain sun protection. it is really good though and worthy of discussion with your Doctor, I do not think he would blame you for seeking another less expensive solution,listen to bothy ides and decide. My doctor told me to add a good cream to the retin A and viola no red and peel. I like Clinique moisture surge with the retin A. Don't be shy go for it!! This is good product and I suspect your doctor will agree

Actually it says it has 1000,000 IU's of vitamin a per ounce, hope this helps, does not say anything about the retinol.

I've asked the same thing and searched and searched. I do really like the product though and suspect it has retinol in its ingredients.

I have never used Tretinoid Cream, then I can not tell about results. Tretinoid Cream contains tretinoin (retinoic acid, vitamin A acid) Retrinal Avene Retrinal conteins Retinaldehyde (0.1%), the immediate precursor to retinoic acid

Where the ingredients are listed on the jar, the word Ascorbyl Palmitate (Ester C) is listed as the 10th ingredient. The word aborbic acid or L-ascorbic acid is not listed. But I will say this works great with the retin A I use at night. I will be purchasing this again.

I don't have the box anymore. The container only says 400,000 IUs vitamin A. There is a website listed as "www.retinolskincareproducts.com&quo;t; also says made in the USA

Hi Mel, according to the manufacturer label, each tablet contains Vitamin A (as Beta Carotene) 4000 IU which is 50% daily value for pregnant and lactating women. Hope this helps.

In reading the label, Retinol is not listed, which makes me think this is Retinol Creme without the Retinol. Also, no warnings about staying out of the sun as Retinol reacts badly to sunlight. Otherwise it was a nice smooth creme.

The percentage of vitamin C is not listed but it is the ninth ingredient of thirteen listed. My face does not peel like it does with the 0.5 % retinol products yet I see an amazing improvement in my skin. It feels tighter, healthier and it has a youthful glow (I am in my fifties). You can contact the company directly at 800-290-6932 and they may be able to provide you with an accurate answer to the percentage of vitamin C.

Sorry, I cannot compare. This was my first purchase of retinol serum; it is a serum. But it took only two weeks to cause a couple of skin tags to fall off. Also, removed some sebaceous growths on my cheek.

Amazon sent me an email asking if I could answer this question because I reviewed the product. The ingredients are listed on the second picture -- you can see them if you scroll over it with the mouse to zoom. I would consider retinol to be the main active ingredient, although there are other ingredients such as green tea extract, camelia flower extract and jojoba oil, just to name a few.

Hi Jacqueline: I discarded the package and the ingredients are not listed on the container. However, if memory serve me correctly, I did not see Retinal listed when I first received the product and read the ingredients. Sorry I can't be more specific. Alice

As the other reviewers mentioned; this product does not contain oil or retinol. I've noticed with RoC products; if they do contain retinol it is always noted on the packaging and label. Especially since this is the ingredient that most consumers using their products are looking for. At least I do. I use this in conjunction with their face cream that does contain retinol. They really do go hand in hand. I don't think I'd get the results I've gotten otherwise.

I couldn't tell you exactly the percentage, since that information isn't listed on the product! But, I would guess the percentage isn't very much, since the retinol (retinol palmitate) is listed as the last ingredient on the product label!

Retinol is one of the animal forms of vitamin A. It is a diterpenoid and an alcohol. It is convertible to other forms of vitamin A, and the retinyl ester derivative This cream has Vitamin A, isopropyl alcohol, glycol, cocanut oil, Vit E and other stuff. Don't know if the Vit A and alcohol in this cream create retinol.

It doesn't specified the amount of retinol as I had hope. But I just looked it up and retinol is a simplify form of Vitamin A of which this products states clearly in the front of having 1000,000 IU per ounce. There is 2oz. in the jar so I guess it has double the amount. I hope this helps. I really do like how soft and subtle this product makes my facial skin and even the rest of my body. I've only been using it almost a month and I don't have wrinkles for being a women near 50 to be able to tell if it helps reduce wrinkles. But I'm hoping it keeps them away longer now that I'm getting older. Good Luck! It doesn't specified the amount of retinol as I had hope.
