I am looking for a good Retinol/Retin A product for face and one for eye area....but....I don't want to order online. Can anyone recommend a good dept. store or drug store brand?
I've been reading about ROC...anyone try this brand? |

| Hi kittylove - I've used it in the past. It's pretty good - I noticed improvement. Plus it's gentler than prescription tretinoin which is just too strong for my skin. There are a few Roc retinol products and the only one I didn't like was one that contained sunscreen. In my opinion, retinoids should be used at bedtime and not during the day, so the inclusion of sunscreen seems unnecessary -- when I used it ONCE during the day, my freckles darkened. |

Ok so once again I make an ass of myself...I just noticed the thread about RoC eyecream on the other forum.... 
m.april thanks for your reply. I agree with you that they should be used at night...
And if anyone else has used another drugstore or department store brand(not just RoC) I'd like to hear about it as well. |

| I know the brand of Helena Rubinstein has vit-A products such as H.R - Power A face cream and eye cream. But seems they do not have cosmetic counters in NA any more. If you go to Hongkong,other asian placesn or europe, you may find it. |

Hi kittylove,
I remember there is Canadian brand 'NeoStrata', last time I went to a drugstore the sales lady introduced me NeoStrata WRINKLE DEFENSE, but I didn't buy it.
now I copy this from their website:
Composition & Properties
0.15% Retinol: Increases cell turnover and stimulate the body’s production of collagen
Vitamin C: Anti-oxidant & wound healing properties. Helps to lighten and smooth out complexion
Vitamin E: Anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant properties |
