Glenmark Therapeutics Adapalene Gel 0.1% Acne Treatment, Paraben Free Topical Retinoid Cream for Face, Helps Clear and Prevent Acne and Clogged Pores, 45g Tube

I ordered this to help combat fine lines and discoloration. I have only used this a handful of times as I am working up to nightly use. I haven’t used a strong retinoid in a while so I have to slowly increase my usage. OTC anti-aging treatments do not have this level of retinoids. I used to use my daughter’s Rx adapalene , she was fighting acne. I would steal a dap here and there to fight wrinkles. Now that it is OTC I’d rather use this than throw money away on products that barely contain any retinol. I can verify it must be strong because after using it every other night my face was showing some slight redness, irritation and starting to flake after my 3rd use. This is not a problem as I expected as much. I simply took a few nights off and increased my moisturizer. Now I sandwich the adapalene between moisturizers ( moisturizer/ adapalene/ more moisturizer). Be careful around eyelids, underneath your nose and around your mouth as these are the areas that tend to react quickly and strongly. Also don’t forget to protect your skin from the sun when using this product, best to use at night and a moisturizer with SPF during the day! I am giving this 5 stars as it shows to be strong and the price for the quantity is fantastic.

Great price and it’ll get you closer to great skin. Don’t be fooled by over paying for the big brand names. They are all pretty much the same. I’ve repurchased this a few times and it works well and is gentle on my skin. I’ve never experienced any irritation.

I bought the Glenmark Adapalene Gel as a gift for my girlfriend because she had been struggling with breakouts for a long time. It wasn’t just about acne — it was about how frustrated she felt trying product after product without real results. I wanted to give her something that could actually help, and after using this consistently, she finally began to see a difference. 🧡 Our experience She applies a thin layer at night, just once a day, and little by little her skin started changing. The breakouts became less frequent, the redness calmed down, and the texture on her cheeks — where she usually got the most flare-ups — began to smooth out. What stood out the most was her confidence coming back. She started going out without makeup some days, smiling at the mirror instead of analyzing every blemish. That meant more than anything. 🔹 Things worth noting • It does take time. During the first two weeks she had a bit of dryness and purging, but it passed. • Consistency is key — using it every night is what made the difference. • A good moisturizer alongside it helped keep irritation under control. ⭐ Final Thoughts This turned out to be one of the best gifts I’ve given her — not just a skincare product, but something that improved how she felt about herself. If you’re getting it for someone who has been dealing with acne for a while, this might be exactly what they need. It didn’t work overnight, but with patience, it worked. ✔ Effective, thoughtful, and something that truly helped her skin and confidence.

Works great and a reasonable price!

My dermatologist recommended this to help clear and prevent clogged pores and rough areas of the skin of my face. She said it was also a great anti-aging gel. The trouble is that my skin is sensitive and using even a small amount of this daily dried it out and made it flaky. I guess that means it's working, but not a good look, right? Now, I only use it on a few small areas twice a week, but I feel that even that amount of it does help. Just don't overdo it.

Works much better than any other product that I’ve tried on my sun skin. I learned about this particular product online when researching things that I could do to help my son skin and this seems to work the best out of all of the stuff that I’ve tried over the years.

Love the dappling I've been a retin a girl for 30 years but my skin is more sensitive now so I have switched to a dappling the last 2 years and I really really like it no peeling no redness no irritation it keeps your pores clean and it's so much more inexpensive than retinol a

I use this for adult acne and wrinkle control. It works great and is a much better price than any drug store or grocery price.
