Pleasantly surprised.

I thought I may be have been sorry about ordering this; I took a chance and am glad. I really like it as an alternative to the SC Renew Overnight creams. I use this and then apply SC firming cream or AGE complex over it. I use SC Serum 15 in the morning. In summer I will probably layer this over the Serum in the morning. I really love Skinceuticals products. I'm 61 and my skin looks about 20 years younger.

Smooth Skin

-October 30, 2012
I have been using this product for about 4 weeks and so far I am loving the results. My skin is smoother have had a few small break outs but I was expecting it also noticing fine lines are less noticable. It's easy to use and non greasy. I love all of Skin Ceutical Products!!
I've been using CE Ferulic for over 10 years and just added Retexturing Activator to my skin-care regimen. Since I have sensitive skin and rosacea, I started with using it at bedtime only. After only five days I've already noticed some stubborn discoloration spots are fading and my skin looks even brighter (the CE Ferulic is also a brightener). I have high hopes for being a long-term user of this product also.

I was really looking forward to my latest Skinceutical purchase which inlcuded the Retexturing Activator and CE Ferulic. Well, ever since I have been using the two product I have had raised bumps on my face. I am not doing anything else different, so, it must be the products - I even stuck with it for 2 weeks to see if it would go away and it wouldnt'. In fact, I stopped using them both more than a week ago and still have the bumps on my face. I think i will need to go to the derm to figure out how to get rid of them. Have used Skinceutical products in past and been really happy with them.

Excellent alternative to Retinol
”
-June 2, 2010
This is an excellent product for people who cannot tolerate Retinol well. It works like a Glycolic acid to rid the skins surface of dead skin cells to reveal polished new skin just like a Retinol cream would do, but in my opinion with much less irritation. This also like Retinol helps stimulate the under layers of the skin to produce collagen.
This is excellent for helping lighten freckles and sundamage or for just wanting a polished radiant appearance without retinol. This formula is also very hydrating since it has hyalaronic acid. You can use the Retexturing Activator as a replacement to the B5 complex when used with CE Ferulic or Phloretin CF.

Retexturing for real!
”
-December 21, 2009
I have been using CE Ferulic for about two years and following with B5 gel. I read about this Retexturing Activator and decided to give it a try. I use it after the CE Ferulic in the morning instead of the B5 gel (they both contain the moisturizer Hyaluronic Acid) and again after cleansing at night. I'm extremely pleased with the results. My skin is glowing, feels wonderfully smooth, and my dark spots are sinking into the background. I'm very happy with this new product!

Even my esthetician was impressed!

-December 19, 2009
I got a sample of this after my last facial, and loved the product! It's so easy to use and my skin looked so plump and glowing.
So I've been using it for a few months and went for a facial today and my esthetician was so impressed at how good my skin looked.
While the price is a bit high, it really does give great results.
