"The Skinfix Acne Adapenoid Gel is $48 at Sephora. It contains adapenoid, a newer retinoid ingredient that is a derivative of adapalene, a third generation retinoid. This stuff's great. If you have acne-prone skin it makes it really good for your skin. I found the adapenoid to be really gentle but effective. I use this a lot on my neck. Can't go wrong with it."

"I am baffled by the SkinFix Adapoid product. What they're saying is it's a precursor to adapalene, and I don't understand why this is a big deal, at least for those of us in the US, since we have adapalene over the counter, I buy it all the time. I still remain perplexed, but that's just me, I haven't tried it, I don't think I will."
