The Ordinary’s Retinol Serum 0.2% in Squalane is a water-free, multi-purpose solution formulated to reduce the appearance of pores, dark spots and fine lines, and improve the overall appearance of skin’s texture.
Enriched with a 0.2% concentration of the anti-ageing powerhouse retinol, which is a derivative of vitamin A, the lightweight serum delivers visible plumping and firming effects to your skin. Another key antioxidant ingredient, squalane, protects against UV damage and helps to minimise the risk of sun-induced age spots, leaving you with a more even-looking skin tone.

Amazing starter retinol!
With everyone raving about retinol, I really wanted to hop on the bandwagon. After doing a bit of research I decided to buy this one. As retinol can be quite strong and it’s something that should be slowly introduced into the skincare regimen and this one is perfect!! Honestly once I started using this 2-3x a week the results were insane! My skin has never looked better! I’ll use this in the evening, and upon waking up my skin looks so soft and glowy. Personally I’ve found this has helped with my acne and reduced some of the fine lines on my forehead. My skin has gotten so many compliments recently and this little bottle is the read why. I’ve always sworn by the ordinary products but this is by far one of my favourites.

Excellent Value for Money
I have very sensitive skin so was nervous to use this product, however it has made a great addition to my skin routine. I use once a week and apply in the sandwich method with a light moisturiser and have had no irritation whatsoever. The percentage of retinol is perfect for a beginner to introduce it into their routine or for someone with sensitive skin. Even after only the first uses I can see a noticeable improvement in my skins texture, and at this very accessible price point, who can resist!

Good reviews
Heard a lot of good things about this product! I had a higher strength from a different brand but it was too strong. I’m going to use this one first to build up tolerance. Make sure you only use it a couple of times a week at first until your skin gets used to it!

Excellent value for money
This is the perfect strength to try when your first using retinol as it is not too strong.

Alright.
Little greasy, easy to apply. I would apply with moisturiser as I think retinol is harsh when first start using.
