Nothing but good things to say about them, and the prices are low.Where is taraskincare located? Do you know how their prices compare to sites like All Day Chemist and such? I've not heard of them but that means nothing since I haven't kept up on where to order RA in a long time. Plus always good to hear about positives experiences with any site. Did you feel their shipping prices were reasonably decent? Thanks
I buy from taraskincare, my packages come from a city close to me, I think Garden Grove, CA. Never had a problem. Check their site, lots of info about them.

I wish that site would sell the 1%. I have been using that strength for years.

Thanks so much for this info on ADC and Retin-A. I have been using Differin for acne and have used Tazorac in the past as well. I am curious how may I use Retin-A for both acne and anti-aging.
Would I begin with the 0.025 cream or the higher doses? I read that Retin-A is drying and may cause irritation so one needs to allow the skin to get used to it. How should I best incorporate it into my regimen? I currently use Differin 3% gel and Benzaclin. I am thinking that the Retin-A can replace the Differin since it is also an acne medication. Any advice is greatly appreciated!!!

I think you mean .025 I would start with .025. I have read that for wrinkles that it is just as good as stronger. It also comes weaker .01 and stronger .05 and .1 % I think I got it right. I have .05% but currently use .025% I was peeling too much. I have been using it every other day for acne/wrinkles. I asked my family Dr for an Rx and got the .025 from Costco for $15.00. I ordered the .05 % from someone on Amazon and paid 20 some dollars.

Thanks a lot Kind1too for letting me know I had the percentage wrong ( I edited it) and for your advice. Do you think that once I begin the Retin A I should stop the differin? Also did the RA made you have an initial purge breakout? Thanks!!!

Don't use the Differin and Retin A at the same time. You could alternate days. No I haven't had any break outs except a couple of tiny ones on the rim of my nose holes. I know, crazy place to break out. I actually have rosacea, the type that looks like acne. Acne treatment works best for me.

Thanks so much for taking the time to reply and for your very valuable advice!!!! I will order the 0.025% as you suggested and what a great suggestion to alternate the days with the Differin.
