@HSB1204, thanks so much. Can you tell me how many drops you use and how often you apply it? Also, if you've seen any positive effects, how would you describe them?
TIA.
I figured I would start off slowly so I've been mixing one drop with my moisturizer every other day. Since I haven't had any problems with that I may give two drops a try. Like HappyDaze, I'm mainly using it for prevention so I can't really report any results at this point.

Thanks to all who have responded so far.
Jeez Louise, aren't there any, ahem, older women hanging out here today who have tried it? I've had it with you youngsters who have no problems to speak of. Prevention, schmention....

Your time will come, my little chickadee(s).
But, hey, when it does, your skin will look B-E-A-UTIFUL!

Hopefully! I'll report back on my results in 20 years.

This is from the FAQs for PC's other 1% retinol product, the one that FUTURE mentioned that she is currently using, but I think the info might still be helpful. The difference, of course, is that with the booster, you choose how many drops to use:
This product contains retinol, which is weaker than prescription retinoids but, over time, produces comparable anti-aging and anti-acne results. A prescription retinoid may produce faster results, but it does so with the added risk of side effects like redness, flaking, and increased sensitivity.
A product with 1% retinol is more comparable to a prescription retinoid with 0.02 tretinoin (the active ingredient in Renova and Retin-A).
@suzyQ3, I'm actually using the Resist Intensive Repair Cream. It has retinol in it. I have the Clinical in my stash to try when I get through this bottle. I'm hoping my skin doesn't freak out! Lol!

@FUTURE, oh, you're right. But then of course you would actually know what you're using. :-) I don't know how I read "retinol cream" and changed it to the Clinical.
Too many names, eh?

She does have quite a few Retinol products. I mean, technically I do have the Clinical. Lol!

Thanks ladies! I think I will stick with my Refissa.
