I just received my Retin-A order from the butterflykisses blog person who does a monthly group order. I got 5 tubes (20g 0.025 Retin-A cream) for $30 something which included shipping. This is the second time I've ordered through her.

Oh, Ms. Sweetie - You got a great price, I ordered from an overseas indian pharmacy and the price was cheap but the shipping was higher than I thought. So you got a great deal. Can anyone order????

I would love to get in on this deal. Do tell!

Yep. Anyone with paypal can order.

She orders from an overseas pharmacy. I ordered direct from ADC in India several times and got that great price per tube too but with higher shipping.

What Jennifer,the butterfly kisses blog lady, does is put in a group order and then ships everyone's order to them and divies up the shipping. She must make a little something for her trouble, but it still is cheaper than paying the $25 shipping or whatever it is now. It takes longer but I am never in a hurry. You pay her through paypal. I like not having to get a money order or special credit card for ADC.

Just google butterfly kisses blog and read through the info there for her contact e-mail. I just double checked and my total came to only $33.00 for 5 tubes including shipping.

I will check it out. Thanks!

I just received my order for Tretinoin Microsphere Gel 0.04%, 20g tube, from Tara Skincare. This is the time-release gel version of Retin-a, not the regular gel version. I was curious to try the time-release version since 0.025 cream Retin-a still irritates my skin a little bit (flaking) and the Microsphere Gel is supposed to be more gentle because it slowly releases the active ingredients.

I signed up for the Tara Skincare newsletter and they sent me a 20% off coupon code a few weeks later. The Tretinoin Microsphere Gel was $24.80 and with the coupon code, it came to $19.84, free shipping. No script necessary, yay, and I didn't have to hassle with ordering it overseas myself. Cheaper than getting a script from a derm but not as cost effective as group ordering through the Butterfly Kisses blog lady.

My derm has started to directly sell: Renova, 2 ounce size, 2% strength, for only $65.00. These days that isn't a bad price. Significant savings over the quote I got from the pharmacy.

My skin won't respond anymore to OTC retinol. Had to step up to retinoids.

They also sell stronger percentages at my derm's office.
