Value for money Tret

I get my Tretinoin (.05) from an independent store. It costs almost £100 a tube with postage.

Is this the typical cost or is there somewhere I can get it cheaper?

How long does it last? I thought you could buy it cheaper from pharmacies online, but perhaps I’m mistaken.

Dermatica or Skin +Me?

Not sure how long it lasts, honestly. I'm not very observant. A few months?

Will try those two places, thanks : )

In Spain you can buy it over the counter for around 20 euros, there is someone on here hopefully they see this post they can link the pharmacy in Spain they buy it from, I think the postage is 20 euros so lot less than you are paying.

Somebody's ripping you off. Have a look at Tretinoin world. I think the woman who runs it is a Mumsnetter. She's definitely on the Nadine Baggott Facebook page.
I pay £30 more or less, lasts a year.

I'd be worried about buying from overseas. I'm currently using tret from dermatica, it also includes any other treatments they think you'll need

Thanks everyone!

I get mine from farmacia Andorra and it's much cheaper. I usually buy a few tubes at a time to save on shipping. Last order came to 75euro for 3x30g tubes inc p&p.

I found the boots retinol 1% more effective than the prescription stuff, and much cheaper.

I use Paulas Choice 1% Retinol treatment £61 for 30ml (I usually buy when they have a 20% off offer though).
