Kids (ages 3–11)

Not for kids

Retinoid (vitamin A) (Retinol, Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate, Tocopheryl Retinoate, Retinol Palmitate, Hydrogenated Retinol): An anti-aging and acne active children's skin doesn't need; dermatologists see red, itchy rashes in kids who use retinoids, and they make skin more sensitive to the sun.

Teens (ages 12–17)

Use with care

Anti-aging retinoid (Retinol, Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate, Tocopheryl Retinoate, Retinol Palmitate, Hydrogenated Retinol): Teen skin doesn't need anti-aging retinol, and it can irritate and make skin more sensitive to the sun. For pimples, adapalene (sold over the counter from age 12) is the retinoid dermatologists recommend.
