    How about online? Allday chemist, a lot of people buy from them.

    Thanks for you reply Sara. I was hoping to buy from somewhere without the high shipping price, but if that's the only option then I might just have to do that. Cheers

    Would the doctor prescribe you Retin A if you'v got mild acne?

    I hardly ever get spots so I won't be able to get a prescription for acne from the doctor :(

    Mistyjane, excuse my lack of knowledge but how do you PM someone? I went to her profile but there was no option for PM?

    OH I'm feeling very stupid right now:o I've just PM Nikki and she says she lives in the US boooh.
    I made a huge mistake and took her for another user whom I don't remember the name...
    So you'll have to order from ADC.
    Next time I'll think twice before saying stupid things:(

    It is going to be very hard to match the allday chemist prices even if you take into account the shipping.

    Another place where I used to buy Retin A from is here, but as you can see the prices are significantly higher. And no you don't need a presciption.

    Inhouse Pharmacy (UK) RETIN-A (tretinoin): This medication is used in the treatment of acne.

    When I buy form allday chemist, I just buy in bulk and it does work out a lot cheaper. The shipment usually takes about 7 - 10 working days.
