Could anyone tell me what over the counter product has the highest amount of retinol? Would it be a cream called Afirm?

no idea, sorry shirl

If you're new to retinols start low and then work your way up.

The highest would be skinceuticals 1%. Afirm is only 0.6%. Green Cream comes in 0.6% and 0.9%. Afirm is more emollient than Green Cream while Skinceuticals contain some silicones. YMMV.

Agree with Lianne, start with the lowest % and work up your tolerance.

FYI, Green cream offers sample for purchase at http://www.lindasy.com

Thanks, I appreciate those links. Looks like Afirm might be another way to go for me if Retrinal doesn't work out (I'm hoping it will).
