Address signs of ageing with the Retinol Serum 0.5% in Squalane from The Ordinary; a water-free, multipurpose, potent solution formulated to refine pores, reduce the appearance of dark spots and wrinkles and improve skin texture.
Enriched with a 0.5% concentration of the anti-ageing powerhouse Retinol, which is a derivative of Vitamin A, the lightweight serum has a plumping and firming effect on the complexion, as well as protecting the skin from harmful environmental aggressors. Another key antioxidant ingredient Squalane prevents UV damage and the formation of age spots whilst counteracting harmful bacteria, leaving you with flawless skin.

Worth a try
Does not really help with any antiaging effect, but I guess it's worth a try with the price.

Great so far
I love this product although when I first started using it my skin was sensitive to it so I spaced it out rather than every night like it says. I did go through a phase of my skin looking worse, and I nearly gave up thinking it wasn't right for me. After reading up online I decided to keep going and I'm glad I did. The dry, scaly, spotty phase passed and now my skin looks fresher and smoother.

Good but…
I really like this product and find that it really helps to reduce fine lines, however, although I avoid the eye area I find that my eyes burn every time I use it so maybe it’s a little too strong for me. Skin feels lovely though!

The Ordinary
Had used for a few months but didn’t notice any real difference, like the other products from the Ordinary but won’t be reordering this.

Great starter retinol
Bought this as a gift for someone just getting into skincare. This is a great option for someone just getting started with vitamin A in their skincare routine. The squalane buffers the irritating effects that can be caused by first using retinol, so this is a great option.

Nice
This is a really nice oil, although I feel it can be a bit heavy on the skin at times
