I have to admit this review is based only on a three day trial packet but I love it! I have been into anti-aging products since realizing that working at a tanning salon for a year did some major damage. I already use Kate's Nourish moisturizer and gave this a try as well. It made me look younger and my skin was as smooth as a baby's. Again this is only three days worth but I would surely use this daily if I could. I plan on putting this on my wish list and ordering soon!

I have tried many Retinol Creams both RX and OTC. For me this is the best one I have tried. Nature is cruel, I am at an age where I have to deal with both wrinkles and acne. I love the RetAsphere because it has made a real difference in the texture of my skin and helps my pores to stay clear. I have noticed the most improvement on my nose because I had started to get blackheads again and the RetAsphere keeps the pores clear. Other Retinol products made my skin peel like crazy, but I dont have this issue with RetAsphere. I plan on buying this again when the one I have is used up. I have sensitive skin so I dont use it every night.

I received a sample size of this product. I have used it for a week now. My skin is starting to glow!!!! On the third day, my skin started to flake in certain areas. But underneath was beautiful glowing skin. I don't know if anyone else when through this stage, but I am very happy! Because it is retinol, it says to use with sunscreen. So my only "downside" comment is that I wished Kate's moisturizers had sunscreen built in already.

Big fan of retinol and it's anti-aging benefit. This one is great and I use it right before I put a light moisturizer on top. Love it!

I have been using this product now for close to 3 months. It does everything Kate says it will and more. No problems with redness, sensitivity, etc. and my face looks clearer and more refined. Love it!!!

This is such a treat for my skin. Helps even and reduce the appearance of fine lines, while moisturizing my facial skin at night. I wake up with radiant skim, skin like I had when I was a teenager!! I love this, Kate, and one day I will meet you and thank you in person!!

This 2-in-1 night cream improved my skin dramatically, and does exactly what it says. I have sensitive, oily, acne skin and after a few weeks it started to glow! Most products just irritate my skin, but this is amazing... I'd recommend it to anyone.

I have never had such fast results with any product. After only a week, this product has cleared my skin right up, and my skin is starting to tighten, dimming the appearance of any wrinkles. Love!

I am always singing the praises of retinol, so I was stoked to try Kate's version. I have been using this for about a month now, and love it. My skin is oily and acne prone if left to its own devices. Now that I'm 30 I'm also very interested in preventing any future lines and wrinkles. The biggest change I see with this 2 in 1 night cream is my pores are refined and the texture of my skin is smoothed! I don't typically experience sensitivity from products, and while I would never ever recommend this to any one else, it's worth mentioning that I can still wax my brows and lip while using this retinol. I heart it!

I decided to try this back in December 2012 from reading an add about it. It sounded like it may have that extra boost that my philosophy retinol had lost. I ordered and started using it right away. The first thing I noticed is that is was a really nice consistency. Some retinols can be sticky or too dry. This went on flawlessly and sank right it giving me wonderful hydration. I have dry skin and adult acne. This product hydrates while not causing breakouts! I noticed after about 2 weeks that my skin really looked better. Even more so since I was not really looking for it. One morning I was washing my face and noticed my skin was brighter and smoother. I do not normally notice things like this. Maybe because the products I have used in the past do not work as well or maybe because this just worked so well. I also have somewhat sensitive skin. Usually when I switch products or do too much to my skin. This product caused no sensitivity while still having the effectiveness I was looking for. This is the best retinol I have used to date and I am about to purchase my next tube!

i received a 0.25oz sample of this product and have been using it every night for a few weeks now. i am 27 and have enlarged pores, so i'm always looking for something to make my skin look younger and just generally better, and this truly is it. after just a few days, my skin was visibly clearer, smoother, brighter, and more balanced. my boyfriend has been commenting on how great my skin looks (yay!). it's truly incredible. my skin is not sensitive in terms of product irritation, so i can't attest to how this product would be on sensitive skin, but my skin is very prone to acne so i have to be careful which moisturizers i use, and this product has definitely contributed to my acne clearing up (and my skin looking much more youthful). i think some hyperpigmentation is evening out as well. i like, literally cannot believe how great this product is. i'm hooked.

This had worked well for me. i have been using it for my adult acne. The prescription retinol i was on worked but was to harsh for my skin. This is just what i needed!! Goes on nice and has not irritated my skin at all.

I've been using Retinol for several years, and decided to try Kate's product recently. With sensitive skin, you really have to ease into the frequency of usage to avoid redness. The only thing that I really don't care for is the pump. It was difficult to get it started, and seems pointless on a tube. There must be a better delivery system that could be employed for an otherwise great product.

Co-workers noticed the difference in my skin after 1 week. I can tell my skin is lighter brighter and softening the wrinkles. Fantastic product. I have rosacea and it did not bother my sensitive skin. I purchased it from QVC on autoship so I'll never run out! I want to try more Kate products but please make some without silicone oil.

This is another product to add to your regimen. I always appreciate seeing Kate on QVC and her great tutorials on how to use the product. I have sensitive skin and found that everyday was too much for me. I use 2-3 times a week. I love how Kate keeps her products simple yet very effective.

I watched Kate on QVC when she introduced this product. I thought it a "must-have" and got it within a few days. If you're sensitive make sure you ask a KATE representative how to incorporate this into your routine... About every 3 days until your skin is used to the product. No immediate redness or burning! I use the Goat Milk moisturizer to calm my skin as well and it's amazing. Don't be afraid if you're sensitive, just make sure to incorporate it slowly!

I tried a pump at a retail store on my hand and was so impressed I immediately added to my KS routine. What's left I rub into the tops of my hands. Incredible moisture. I also add a tiny pump and use with my Opal for great results around the eyes. A definite add to my routine. No redness, no flakiness and really deep moisture. KS is the only line I don't mind the price tag. It's cheaper in the long run when I get results without trying multiple brands and products.

Love love love! A new staple to my Kate skincare routine. I've seen (and felt!) outstanding results in two weeks. I love the way it reduces fine lines and yet it's not harsh and doesn't make my face red or flaky. My pores appear smaller and my skin is still hydrated. I highly recommend! Thanks Kate!
