The Ordinary’s Retinol Serum 1% 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 1% 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.

Retinol serum
I really like this. Took a couple of weeks of using every other day for my skin to adjust. Goes on and absorbs nicely. Good price.

My skin looks so good after applying this. It goes on so beautifully. I like that it tells you the retinol % so you can increase it easily

Great value for money!
This is my 3rd bottle of Retinol solution and am very pleased with the results. As it is quite oily I tend to use this at night to let it sink in and do its magic.

Effective but proceed with caution. The Ordinary's Retinol Serum in Squalane delivers results in terms of improving skin texture and reducing fine lines, but it can be quite potent, especially for those with sensitive skin. I've experienced some mild irritation and dryness, so I recommend starting with a lower concentration if you're new to retinol.
