I bought this more times than I can count. I mix the gel with a hydrating serum & put it in a pump container to use daily. That way I can control the exact amount that goes on my sensitive combo skin and add more to certain areas. I don’t have to be uber careful with ultra thin layers on drier areas. It is my go-to for spot treatments as well. It heals a nasty pimple immediately. Read more

I have something called follicular keratosis. I have been misdiagnosed a bunch and finally got some answers. I was dealing with an over production of Keratin on my face, hands and neck, causing keratin beads to form and clog my pores. So many were forming, it caused my face to ulcer because these beads were trying to find a way to escape. I have spent the year trying to treat my keratosis but did not succeed. After some extensive research, I read that retinoid is effective in treating this because it balances out the skins keratin levels and exfoliates out excessive keratinand other debris. I started my new journey only 6 weeks ago. I exfoliate my face 2x a day with acidic wash (AHA, BHA & PHA) and at night I use a hydrating wash and follow it up with this retinoid acne treatment. This treatment is how my doctor and I discovered what I had. The exfoliating is important to maintain the pH levels of my skin and get rid of any excess keratin on my skin. This treatment has not irritated my face, made it dry, red, nothing. I was on tretinoin before this. This is the most gentle and effective treatment I have tried, to date. If you are worried about this working, take my before and after pictures as proof that this is a highly effective treatment. Adapalene works slower than trerinoin but I'll take whatever time necessary to treat my skin. The difference it has already made has brought me my confidence back. Read more

This works just as well as name-brand adapalene at a much better price. The gel is lightweight, absorbs quickly, and doesn’t feel greasy. After a few weeks of consistent use, my skin looked clearer and smoother. Minimal irritation when used correctly with moisturizer. Very happy with this product. Read more

This is my second order as I had finished the first one with very great results. My skin has been exposed to a lot of sun this summer. I wanted to clear out my skin before thd holiday and this product was recommended to me by a beautician. I used this with DNA repair at night about 4/5 times a week for almost 2 months. I have noticed that my skin is becoming lighter, and some of the dark spots have faded. I have used many creams before, including luxury brands, but I have not seen any noticeable changes. My wrinkles begin to lessen, and my aging skin starts to show signs of youth. I avoided using it for seven days straight because it can be harsh on my skin, especially when exposed to the sun during the day. Be cautious when mixing it with other lotions, as it may cause a reaction. Be sure to wash your face in the morning and apply sunscreen to help protect your skin from further damage. I plan to continue this treatment throughout the winter, and I hope my skin will clear up by spring. I'll definitely write more progress when I buy the next one. Read more

Used to get differin, but this is the same thing for much cheaper. Works just as well! Read more

The product arrived in good time and the packaging was all good. I read many other reviewers say that they received a much smaller tube than they were expecting. I don't know what they were expecting but the sizing was clearly marked in the product info and I received exactly what I was expecting. I'm new to retinoid's, but after having done extensive research I found adapalene gel is the best you can get without a prescription. You do have to be careful to not overuse this product or you will have burns! Since I started using it just three days a week instead of every other day and amped up my moisturizer game I've had no more issues. It is essential you use a sunscreen with this in the daytime and I use a moisturizer with hyaluronic acid as needed. I have pretty sensitive skin and am very prone to breakouts but I've had no troubles so far. I've only been using it about a month so I can't actually see any results as of yet but only time will tell. I will try to update if possible with photos in a few months with before and afters. Also with Summer coming, we'll see how well it holds up in all the sun! I did get a pretty bad burn initially around my eyes, you have to apply it lightly around your eyes and I do NOT recommend using the Vaseline trick as this stuff is meant to absorb naturally. Too much saturation WILL cause your skin to burn and crack! It feels like the worst sunburn you've ever had but crispier. It is not pleasant. A couple days of coating on hyaluronic acid moisturizer though gave me much needed relief and took care of the problem. Most dermatologists recommend you only need three things for perfect skin, a good retinoid, SPF, and moisturizer. This is a much more affordable option than the name brand and see absolutely no reason why it shouldn't work just as well. A little goes a long way and it doesn't leave any greasy residue. It is recommended you don't use it straight out of the shower or right after washing your face as it absorbs too quickly that way. So wait a few minutes after washing your face to apply it, go easy around the eyes as the skin is much thinner there, and then wait another ten to fifteen minutes and generously apply some moisturizer. Follow these steps and use this product conscientiously and you should have no problems. Read more

This gel is lightweight and doesn't feel sticky after applying it. I let it absorb into my skin for a few minutes, and then use a simple moisturizer on top. By day 4, I noticed that the sebum in my pores was visible to the naked eye. It's so gross but so satisfying. I'll use a small tweezer to pull them out. Highly recommend trying this product for clear skin. Read more
