Bought the product and love the cream, but the container it comes in split on the bottom and has dried out the product, was a huge waste of money

Ive been using this for 4 years. Its part of the skin routine my dermatologist started me on. I use a number of Obagi products so difficult to say what impact each is having on my skin, but my ski. Does look good. This product is easy to apply, absorbs well and it tolerated by my skin

This Obagi retinol is really nice. I was pleasantly surpised when I tried this and had no irritation. I didn't experience some of the harsh side effects that I've had with other retinol products. This made my skin super smooth and even. I have also gifted to several friends and family members.

I'm new to retinols and i have no other retinols to compare it too. However, let me tell you how much of a difference this retinol has made to my skin. My skin looks clearer and brighter. Can't wait to finish this bottle so i can then purchase a 1.0 retinol from obagi.

I have such sensitive skin and I love that I can use this and get reaults without leaving my face looking terrible flaking everywhere in the house. It flakes but is subtle. I was able to build up to use a few times a week in no time!
