Recommended for experienced users of retinoids, the Ordinary’s Retinal 0.2% Emulsion is a potent serum that works over time to target visible signs of ageing.
Suitable for all skin types, the yellow-tinted formula works to diminish the appearance of fine lines, dark spots and uneven tone, while visibly enhancing the skin’s radiance and smoothness. The treatment utilises oat, an ingredient renowned for its soothing properties, to help minimise feelings of sensitivity and dryness post-application. The multi-purpose serum also helps to improve visible elasticity and soften the look of crow’s feet.

Good retinol
Can always rely on the ordinary for their retinol treatment. Unlike most brands they tell you the percentage of retinol in the product. This is the strongest one yet so not for newbies. Can notice a difference after a week of usage

Really effective for the price!
I’ve been using this now for about 6 weeks, I started once a week and then after a few weeks and no irritation use twice a week. It has made such a noticeable difference to my skin! I struggle with quite big blocked pores on my nose, cheeks and chin and they are definitely minimised and clearer now than they ever have been. It’s also helped with the texture and pigmentation on my chin and cheeks and my skin just looks generally brighter. I follow with a cicoplast moisturiser on the nights I use it to combat any dryness and it definitely works (although I don’t have overly sensitive skin). Would definitely recommend - you only need a tiny amount and for the price it’s great value.

Love!
Great retinal, powerful but gentle. Hasn't dried my skin or caused dry patches. I followed the instructions and now use 3 times a week. I've tried a few retinol products and this is my fave, can really see results; more glowy skin, less texture and fine lines appear diminished. Big big fan!

Excited for the results!
I have been working my way up through the retinol journey for a few months now, using this one for the last 3 weeks. Definitely towards the end now I am seeing so much improvement in overall texture and glow! Using twice a week is definitely the key to the best outcome!

Another winner from TO
0.2% retinal is not heard of at this price! I was paying 7x this for a leading brand retinal & this is hands down its equal. Don't waste your money on hype, belive me this is brilliant.

So far so good!
As someone who’s never used retinol before I wanted to use a brand I was familiar with. I love The Ordinary so gave it a go. I’ve only been using it for 3 weeks. Once a week as directed on the bottle. A pea sized amount and I would say it does help! I’ll see how I go as I use it more!
