I generally retouch in PS without adjustment layers. I almost always know exactly what I want to do, and if I change my mind, I simply flip back in the history. I'm not modifying the original, the RAW is still on file with all my adjustment parameters intact. For big retouching jobs, layers are great. For minor adjustment of photographs, they're unnecessary.
