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.
Vegan.

Must try
I do love this serum, really improves the texture of my skin.

Glowing skin
I like that it is oily, it makes my skin feel hydrated before going to sleep. Skin texture is slightly improved, I think a stronger product is needed for my skin as I have textured skin and acne scarring.

Lovely texture
I'd not bought retinol in squalane before, but it feels lovely. I've not had any irritation, even though it's twice the strength of the last retinol I've used- happy to use this daily and my skin feels great. I will say it's obviously really oily, so watch out for your hair when you go to bed...

works as expected
Bought for my mum and it works as expected, just as some more expensive serums. Squalane as a base is quite soothing.

Not sure if this product is strong enough.
I’ve used retinol products before and am using this at nighttime. So far I’m not finding it that strong that it’s having any difference to my skin. Will have to wait and see but in comparison to other products on the market it’s not provided any benefits so far so I’m neutral and waiting to see if it does more over time.

Great
Only a small amount of this is needed for each use as if you use to much it feels super oily, however the results so far have been amazing and would highly recommend

Must have
This is a fantastic retinol, it absorbs beautifully into clean skin. It is reducing aging on the face. I have had no reaction to it, I do always put eye cream on under eyes which is where I can be sensitive. An excellent price point too!
