Fight signs of ageing with The Ordinary's Granactive Retinoid 2% Emulsion, a solution that combines two forms of next-generation Retinoid to help improve the appearance of ageing and acne-prone skin.
The two Retinoids used are a Solubilized Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate (which has a multi-fold anti-ageing effect, more efficient than Retinol), and pure Retinol in a protective capsule system which supports the delivery and efficacy of Solubilized Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate. The solution works to visibly fight signs of ageing without irritating the skin.
Caution: Retinoids can make the skin more sensitive to UV radiation. Sun protection is particularly important when using retinoids. This product must not be used in conjunction with other retinoids including retinol or retinoic acid. This product is not a treatment for acne. Acne-prone skin may experience a temporary increase in acne during the first few weeks of using any form of retinoid including those used in this formulation.
Aqua (Water), Ethyl Linoleate, Propanediol, Glycerin, Cetearyl Isononanoate, Bisabolol, Retinol, Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate, Tasmannia Lanceolata Fruit/Leaf Extract, Dimethyl Isosorbide, Inulin Lauryl Carbamate, Glyceryl Stearate, Ceteareth-12, Ceteareth-20, Cetearyl Alcohol, Carrageenan, Acacia Senegal Gum, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Cetyl Palmitate, Sucrose Laurate, Polysorbate 20, Behentrimonium Chloride, Disodium EDTA, Dehydroacetic Acid, Benzoic Acid, Ethylhexylglycerin, Phenoxyethanol, Chlorphenesin.

Does the job
Does the job. Not the biggest fan of the application and the fact it has to be stored in the fridge. But cannot go wrong for the price

Great anti-aging serum
I use this serum with my collagen serum every evening. You do need to build up your skin’s tolerance to this product gradually, as it can cause irritation, but once you’re there it’s worth it. It’s a great texture and absorbs well without residue. It’s a daily staple for me as part of my anti-aging routine.

Amazing for the price!
Love this formulation. No irritation, just clear skin and no new breakouts! I’ve also bought the new version from The Ordinary as a next step, as for the price, you can’t fault the products and they deliver!

Can't say I've noticed a difference..
I saw great reviews for this product, but after using it for a few weeks I can't really say I noticed much of a difference in my skin. Worth mentioning I'm new to retinols.

Amazing budget friendly retinoid
I’ve been using this twice to three times a week for about 4 weeks and am really impressed with it. My skin is so smooth and soft and I’m experiencing no irritation at all. Highly recommend.
