Revitalise the skin for a fresher-looking appearance with The Ordinary Retinoid 5% In Squalane, a high-strength yet low-irritation serum that works to soften the look of fine lines and other unwanted signs of ageing.

This serum features granactive retinoid, a next-generation retinoid active technology that avoids the irritation to the skin commonly produced by retinoid use. As such, the inclusion of a 5% concentrate of the advanced granactive retinoid works to prevent redness and flaking after application.

This highly stable and water-free solution of all-trans retinoic acid is free from silicone and alcohol. It is also vegan and cruelty-free.

Retinoid use can make the skin more sensitive to UV radiation, so thorough skin protection is advised in conjunction with its use.

Key Benefits

  • A highly stable and water-free skincare treatment
  • Uses advance granactive retinoid for improved results against skin ageing
  • Avoids the irritation commonly associated with retinoid usage
  • Works to soften the look of fine lines
  • Vegan and cruelty-free formula

Love the light oily texture

I really like how lightweight this formula is. My skin feels soft and hydrated when I wake up in the morning. I like to also put it on my hands for hydration and collagen production. Please keep this product forever. I am definitely a lifelong customer!

Strange growth in the bottle!

I purchased 2 bottles for my mom last year. She finished the first bottle today. She was trying to get every single drop out of the bottle so she tried to dip a cotton swab in the bottle. It came out with some gross black residue! She opened the brand new second bottle and the oil is not a clear color like shown on the website. It has some brown/gray stuff (see last photo - bottom of the lid) GROSS!!!

No squalane please.

I used the 2 % emulsion and it was great. Unfortunately squalane gives me red reactions and I now switched to another brand for the 5 % without the squalane. Why is it not possible to make 5 % in emulsion?

Perfect !

I was really afraid to purchase 5% Retinol from the comments after having 2% Emulsion in practice. It is not sticky and oily at all, it is really soft and on my skin practically dries out very smoothly. I have normal, combination skin, without acne. It is first day of use for me and as for now i definitely feel satisfied with my purchase of getting higher concentration.

My desert island product!!

Only been using this for 3 days and I already see definitive results! The oil is quite a dryish oil so it doesn’t feel sticky or tacky but rather smoothe and silky ! Beautiful product, please never stop making this!!!
