Any Roc Retinol users?

I was at Costco today and they have a two pack of the day and two pack of the night. I'm always curious about those products.

No idea as to the % of Retinol they use. I doubt it is very high.

Retinol is listed way down on ingredients..I honestly cant see the benefits, yet many like it. I use Skinmedica 1%, with visible results. I also alternate with No.7 Restore and Renew, retinol is midway on ingredient list...I really like this night cream.

I used it for awhile and it dried out my face pretty badly. I stopped and had to moisturize a couple of times a day for awhile after I stopped using it to get my skin back to normal. I would peel during the day and my face felt tight.

I used ROC a few years ago because my derm told me that ROC is the absolute best retinol cream out there. What I found -- which may not be the case for everyone -- is that the ROC CorXection was too strong for me. It caused burning and peeling using twice a week. I tossed it. Then I tried the ROC Night Cream and it was much gentler and I ended up using it for over a year every single night.

I eventually switched to a more moisturizing retinol cream (for me). Again, not every retinol product works the same for everyone's complexion.

I think I'll try it. I have spent so much on different lines that really aren't doing much. one more won't hurt.

Nadine01, the brand ROC is a very trustful European brand (French).

In Greece where I am from, ROC skincare can be found in pharmacies and again, ROC is a reliable and inexpensive mass skincare line.
