"Some of the common prescription brands for generic tretinoin are things like Alrino lotion. This is the 0.05%. It's a little bit newer hydrating formula. Really well tolerated. I do have this prescription. I like it. It spreads really nice."

"I love the Alrino lotion. This is prescription. If you have dry skin, this is a nice prescription retinoid that doesn't dry your skin out like a lot of them otherwise. The prescription ones can contain a lot of denatured alcohol which can really dry your skin out in combination with the retinoids making it even drier, but this one's really nice at preventing that."
