Helps treat: Signs of ageing and uneven skin texture
Feels like: An oil-like serum
Recommended for: This high strength retinol will help reduce signs of ageing and improve skin’s radiance
Fight visible signs of ageing with The Ordinary Retinol 1% in Squalane, a water- and silicone-free skincare treatment enriched with vitamin A to help revitalise the complexion.
The highly stable retinol present in this formula works to reduce the appearance of fine lines, photo damage and general signs of skin ageing. It also encourages natural cell turnover, helping to promote softer and healthier-looking skin while working to minimise the appearance of blemishes and dark spots.
As retinol can cause irritation to the skin, newer technologies now exist to mimic the visible effects of retinol without causing as much discomfort for the skin. With this in mind, The Ordinary recommends beginning with lower concentrations in order to build up tolerance.

Great!!
I’ve not been using this for long and I’m relatively new to retinol but this is great!! I’m so happy with it, my skin is clear and honestly so glowy!! The only problem I have with it is that it’s quite an oily/heavy feeling serum until you put a moisturiser on so maybe bear that in mind but other than that I love using it!!

Good not great
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I thought this product offered by the ordinary was pretty good. I didn’t notice dramatic results, but I liked that the active ingredient is house in an oil base. It’s much more soothing that a typical retinol but perhaps my skin is used to a more harsh formula, bc while it didn’t cause negative effects, I also didn’t see much positive ones either

Best brand that works
Thank you for making a retinol that works, and is so good. I was using Paula’s choice, garbage and like 6 times the price, I used khiels to and does not come close. Please keep this retinol, and the pricing. Us skin care girlies appreciate it so much. I’m about to switch more of my products to you, just because of how your pricing is and your products truly don’t disappoint.

Amazing product
My skin was becoming dry and full of lines, my friend gave me this to try, I was constantly looking and buying products that didn’t do what they promised until I tried this, My skin feels and looks better than it’s ever done, I’m 54 years young however still care about my appearance and how others perceive me ( sad I know) But this has genuinely worked for me, I apply once in the morning then at night, Very happy

Worth your coin
I was gifted this item in exchange for my review and in all honesty I love the product I’ve been using it for almost 1 month and I’ve noticed my wrinkles and fine lines are slowly going away! My skin is so soft and looks like glass I love those feelings I would definitely say it’s worth your coin to get and it’s affordable yall I was offered by theordinary
