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.

Always repurchase
Affordable, easy to use, not drying. I always repurchase this as I've never had any issues and the ordinary is typically a great brand. Some retinol serums are insanely priced and you genuinely don't need to spend a fortune.

Seems to be working
It seems to be helping reduce the size of pores. Much oilier than I expected!

Good retinol
Part of my routine in the evening. effective and affordable retinol. I use stronger products also, but this one is in "everyday plan" and it makes my skin less sensitive when I use stronger actives. I use this one for more than a year now and I intend to continue with it.

Good retinol
This is an effective and affordable retinol. I use most night. Only thing I would say is that it can be somewhat greasy so best not to use too much.

Excellent product
This is my 2nd bottle and am pleased with the results so far. Only need a few drops as it is quite oily. Blends in nicely though after applying my night cream.

Strong stuff
So I'm slowly building up my strength to retinoids, 0,2 then 0,5 and recently moved to 1 which is quite strong so my skin still gets a little dry but it's amazing to see that it works! I usually use this once or twice a week just because my skin need to build up the resistance. Very happy.

Good weekly treatment
Great addition to my beauty regimen. Used once weekly it definitely helps to improve the appearance of scars, marks and imperfections.

Potent
Very good, I wouldn't use it more than a couple of times a week though and factor 50 is absolutely necessary the following day

Good retinol from the ordinary
It’s a very good retinol, it’s a good concentration and not too harsh on the skin. I use it every two days and try to avoid during summer but otherwise it’s perfect
