I’ve been using this product for about a month and the milia under my eyes have significantly gotten smaller. Highly recommend. Box says it might take a couple of months before you see results, but I was able to see results sooner. Also something to be aware of, the longer you use the product sometimes it feels like it’s burning in the areas it’s used. It’s something normal that happens when using the product. But, I will take that con if it works.

Seems exactly like the name brand product but at a better value. Internal and external packaging are exactly the same. So, seems like a good substitute with a price point that is also a good value. Up & Up makes very good products, in my opinion!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this lightweight, topical retinoid gel. It glides on smoothly and easily for easy application so far since I started using it my skin has been looking better and more clear. I don’t have overly dry skin, but it is not drying me out too much either. I really like this gel and I will plan on continue using it as long as my skin does not react to it. This is a great over-the-counter retinoid option! I received an incentive to write this review.

I have been using this retinoid gel for a few weeks. I had previously been using the name brand version of this product for a long time. I have not noticed any difference between the two products. The up and up version works just as well as the name brand.

I’m quite undecided on this product. I don’t feel like it has made a significant difference yet, and it has been two weeks. It doesn’t hurt when applied, easy to apply, convenient size. I think it’s a bit drying, and hasn’t made a big difference. Maybe just not the right product for my son.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Breaking out in your 40’s is almost as bad as breaking out as a teenager. This amazing adapalene gel by up and up brand definitely does what it says it will. It goes on smooth and doesn’t overdry my skin. It helps with my blemishes and breakouts which I really need. They do all this without breaking the bank, which I can very much appreciate in this economy. This is perfect for teenagers and adult adults. I received an incentive to write this review.

This stuff really helps my adult acne! I love the consistency, it dries down well and doesn’t leave a sticky or white film on my face. I can apply under make up without issue or just by itself at any time. It doesn’t irritate my skin or make it dry either which is awesome! I use it at night as a preventative after I was my face i apply a thin layer over my whole face and it has worked great!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really enjoyed this adapalene gel. There was some mild peeling when I used it for the first few nights, but the peeling subsided pretty quickly. My skin is more even and radiant than ever before! I’ve also noticed my acne has subsided. This product is comparable to Differin and is very high quality. It is also a great value for your money. I’m very happy with my results and will continue to use it. I received an incentive to write this review.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This up and up Adapalene Gel USP 0.1% acne treatment is a topical retinoid that was previously over the counter only. My wife loved that she can get this at the local Target without visiting the dermatologist for a prescription. The bottle is tiny but for the price and how much you use at a time, it is worth the value. It rubs in absolutely clear and effortlessly. It is a very lightweight solution. I received an incentive to write this review.

After using the Walgreens store brand for months, I decided to try this out since it was a little cheaper for the same active ingredients. I used it twice and within 48 hours was horribly broken out. I’m so disappointed

Got this for my teenage son. He has been using it for two weeks and I can see a difference in his skin. It is easy to apply and a little goes a long way. I like that it is available over the counter and FDA approved. Hoping to see even more results in the coming weeks.

The up & up Adapalene Gel is an effective acne treatment that’s easy to apply and absorbs quickly. After using it daily for two weeks, I noticed visible improvement in my skin, with fewer breakouts. Overall, this adapalene gel is a good option for anyone looking to treat mild to moderate acne.

I really liked this product. I can only use a pea sized amount because if I use more than this, my face will be all red and irritated by morning. This item is great for keeping my skin clear and wrinkle free. I would recommend this product on a large size.

I apply as little as possible, started out using it twice a week. I use it only at night.It took care of my whiteheads pretty quickly, for years I’ve tried all kinds of stuff with no success. It also helps me with my acne scars and large pores. Effective product!

I love this retinoid gel! I consistently use some form of retinol and this one is perfect. There is absolutely no smell and the gel glides onto my skin. It isn't watery at all. I had zero irritation and it didn't pill with my oil free moisturizer. The next day my skin was smooth and less oily than usual.

This is a really effective acne treatment. I've been breaking out terribly lately and I put this on twice yesterday once in the morning and once at night and it seems to be clearing up my acne quite nicely. I'm really impressed. It doesn't feel like it's drying out my skin, it just seems to get to work. The gel is nice and smooth to put on.

With two teens in the house we try a lot of products. I like that this one is a gel and goes on clear and smooth. It does not leave your face dry or sticky. There's also no odor. A pea size amount goes a long way.

soziekdodobird - 2 months ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like this new type of medication for acne since it did not dry out my skin or cause it to be flaky. The ointment is a gel like substance that spreads easily but does not drip when trying to apply with you fingers. It has no offensive odor and goes on well under makeup or can be used alone at night after cleaning your face I like the cool feeling it has and doesn’t burn after placing on skin I received an incentive to write this review.
