Not a chemist myself, but I just purchased a 2nd bottle- am quite pleased- not as harsh as the old Retin-A tube product was. I use it first after washing, then wait, then moisturizer. I'm 55 and was just told by a friend of mine who just had his 47th that he had assumed I was no older than 40 or so.

I'm not really sure, but I'm still using it and I'm happy with my results so far. I apply it first then I apply my regular moisturizer, in the mornings. I ordered it to because it said 2.5% retinol. I also use pure hyaluronic serum. And I love this . I got it from Cosmedica skin care. I get alot of compliments on my face. And im 59 yrs old. Hope I helped.

On the back it says 100mg of vit. B1, niacin, B5. Others are different mg and mcg however, to me works better than any other B vitamins because of the encapsulation and Metafolin L-5-MTHF. I just notice it, as with others, I don't!

Any Retinol product is going to make you peel one way or another. Some have a regular problem with peeling so I would use a 2% product, I have had very little peeling with any Retinol product.

I would assume this means that the retinol is higher percentage- wise than similar products. It seems to be be working

Does this product work for you...? It could be watered down with too much olive oil? Curious because I have never used this product, but always purchase my Vit D drops after researching the company and it's ingredients, and how they are manufactured, processed, ect. I do use this company for another product in my home. I will say most of their products, seem to be standard, for good all natural purposes. In my own words only, "not superior".

I did not mention the percentage of retinol in my comment. I understood that over the counter retinol products cannot contain more than 5%.

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.

0.60%. It is very strong and should only be used on skin that is used to retinol.

I have used Neutrogena Dermatologics Retinol for about 6 months and love it...I really do see a diminish in fine lines and my skin feels tighter. I ordered another bottle recently because I did not want to go a day without. Please give it several weeks to show a difference in your skin.

yes, this is misleading because the ingredients by law need to be listed in strongest-quantity-first order. So how can the higher amount of 5% B3 be listed after the lower 1% retinol? My understanding is that it should be the other way around unless maybe there is a missing decimal point before the 5% and it is really .5% B3. I am just a consumer and don't know much, but this is my guess.

The ingredients must have been on the box. They aren't on the package or I would have wrote it out. Three the box away. I know it has retinol a but I'm not sure about the rest. Sorry I couldn't help it just has directions.

I don't think it has retinol. If it did, retinol would have to be on the label.

No, it's totally not. I'm on my 3rd batch, I love it. I've tried everything. I can't use regular retina A, too strong., so I use their retinol cream now too, and I alternate it with this niacidamide. This stuff rocks! My skin looks great. I've tried everything. Obagi, jan marini, everything. My MIL said my skin is "glowing."

I don't think that would be wise. These products all contain varying amounts of retinol......so I wouldn't mix them.

It is not listed. I bought this because my cosmetologist told me that ROC has one of the highest retinol strengths over the counter. Still, I don't know what strength it is. It doesn't compare with what I buy from her but it stretches on a budget at 1/8 the cost.

It says Retinol half way down the ingredient list. It is a good product but prescription strength is the best. Obagi has good products at different strengths.

Dear Jane: Retinol 2% is the first ingredient listed. I am very picky abut this kind of products and I always check for the accuracy. This really works, it gives you a clean glow and reduce your skin pigmentation. I have chronic melasma and this works like a charm
