What the gurus are saying

Gurus agree retinol's efficacy for skin improvement, but split on this formula's appeal. One finds it too strong and prefers prescription-strength alternatives, while another recommends it as a solid higher-concentration option for those ready to graduate from milder retinols. The formula is noted as simple and relatively mild in scent, though some experience peeling.

"Simple formula but rather than going up to 0.6% retinol I'd rather you jumped to retin-A. It even feels very similar, actually is peeling a little bit but that might happen. The smell's not too bad but for me this is too strong for my skin and color family."
Approved
"For higher concentrations, we recommend the 0.6, so you can use the Minimalist 0.6 Retinol. Retinol is one of the most important ingredients because retinol works by increasing your skin cell turnover, and the faster your skin cell turnover increases, the faster your skin improves."
