I dont think the retin A from ADC works all that great. if at all. does anyone know another place where I can get retin A online that works much better?

Why is the Retin A so much less expensive at ADC? Same with the Careprost. It's only $11 at ADC, yet it's $30 at the other two. I haven't ordered at any of these online pharmacies, but would like to in the future. It sure beats what I'm paying at the derm office!

It definitely pays to buy Retin A and Careprost in bulk from ADC than to buy from your derm of pharmacy - although the shipping cost is $25 but it's still worth it if you buy in bulk Wink

I will definitely put together an order from ADC. I've been buying Latisse for the past 3 years from my derm and can't believe I can get a similar product for $11 (compared to $125). Unbelievable!

Why is the Retin A and Careprost so much more at Medsmex?

Is Renova better than Retin A?

The retin a cream or gel? The retin a gel made by shalaks works great but the cream from Johnson and did nothing for me.

grhawk~ what does the gel feel like? I'm currently using .05 cream but I'd like to reorder from ADC but now I'm reluctant to order the J & J.

Is it more drying than the cream? When applying it, is it sticky, greasy, etc.? I've never used a gel and am curious about the consistency.

I wonder why Shalaks doesn't offer an .05 cream?

It is not a true gel because it goes on real light and is not greasy or sticky whatsoever. Someone on here said it is olive oil base which seems right. It does not contain any alcohol either. It may not be as moisturizing as the cream but it also will not clog your pores like the J&J. It is a really good formulation that is quick drying and does not smear off on the pillow. I really like it. My skin is a little dry and sensitive by nature. There is a lot of discussion about it in previous threads that you should search for. It is really cheap also which is always good.
