If I am not experiencing the dry/irritated skin side effects of Retin A does that mean it is not working for me?

I started using retin-a a few months ago and read that just about everyone has dry and/or irritated skin from it. I am using 0.05 percent and have never had any dry or irritated skin. Of course it makes my skin feel tight after applying and I just apply moisturizer to take care of that. Does this mean it is not working for me and I should try a higher dosage or am I just lucky?
