The quality looked good to me. The parcel looked untouched when it got to me. Will come back to this site when I need Tretinoin again.

I got my Tretinoin here and the experience was easy. Pricing was reasonable and there were no hidden charges. It came well wrapped and in perfect condition.

Wanted to share my experience with this order. The expiry date was fine and everything looked as it should. Customer service was polite and helpful.

Tretinoin is a retinoid (a form of vitamin A) used on the skin. It treats acne by unblocking pores and helps improve skin texture, fine lines and uneven skin tone.

It comes in different strengths. The lower strength (0.025%) is gentler and good for starting, while stronger strengths (0.05% and 0.1%) work faster but can cause more irritation.

What is it used for?

Acne, including blackheads and whiteheads
Fine lines and rough skin caused by the sun (photo-ageing)
Uneven skin tone

How does it work?

Tretinoin speeds up the renewal of skin cells. This stops dead cells from blocking pores and helps new, smoother skin come to the surface.

This information is written in simple words to help you understand this product. It does not replace advice from your doctor or pharmacist.

Read these points before you start. If any of them apply to you, talk to your doctor or pharmacist first.

It is for use on the skin only. Keep it away from your eyes, mouth and inside your nose.
Do not use it if you are allergic to any of the ingredients.
Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
Do not use it if you are pregnant or trying to get pregnant.
It makes your skin much more sensitive to sunlight. Use sunscreen every day and avoid sunbeds.
Do not use it on eczema, cuts, sunburn or broken skin.
Avoid harsh soaps, scrubs, waxing and other drying or irritating products on the same area.
Tell your doctor or pharmacist about every other medicine, vitamin or herbal product you use.
Keep this product out of the reach and sight of children.

Like all medicines, Tretinoin 0.05% can cause side effects, but not everybody gets them.

Common side effects

Dry, peeling skin
Redness, burning or stinging
Acne may look worse in the first few weeks
Skin more sensitive to sun and wind

These are usually mild and often get better as your body gets used to it. Tell your doctor if they bother you or do not go away.

Stop using it and get medical help straight away if you notice:

Severe redness, swelling, blistering or crusting
Swelling of the face or eyes

This is not a complete list. If you notice anything unusual, ask your doctor or pharmacist.

Wash your face with a mild cleanser and wait 20 to 30 minutes until your skin is fully dry.
At night, apply a pea-sized amount as a thin layer over the whole face (or affected area). Avoid the eyes, mouth and corners of the nose.
Start every 2 to 3 nights, then use it every night as your skin gets used to it.
Use a moisturiser in the morning and sunscreen every day.
It can take 6 to 12 weeks to see results for acne, and several months for skin texture.

If you miss a dose: Apply it as soon as you remember, then carry on as normal. Do not use extra to make up.

If you use too much: If you accidentally swallow some, contact a doctor, pharmacist or poison control centre for advice.

How to store it: Keep it in its original pack at room temperature (below 25°C / 77°F), away from heat, damp and direct sunlight. Do not use it after the expiry date.

Why is my skin peeling on Tretinoin 0.05%?: Peeling and dryness are common at first. Use it less often and moisturise. It usually settles after a few weeks.
Which strength of Tretinoin 0.05% should I start with?: Most people start with 0.025%. Stronger strengths are used once your skin is used to it, or if your doctor advises.
Can I use Tretinoin 0.05% with other acne treatments?: Some combinations can irritate the skin. Ask your doctor or pharmacist before combining.
