November's Best Beauty Buys

Are you one of those women who have started—and then quit—a prescription retinoid, the gold standard of antiaging topical skin treatments? You're not alone. Irritation and peeling make for a lot of what doctors call noncompliance. You'll have better luck with Redermic [R] Intensive Anti-Aging Corrective Treatment. It contains the highest concentration (0.1 percent) of retinol (the less potent retinoid) available over the counter in drugstores and a complex of ingredients that helps boost the retinol's effectiveness while reducing irritation.
