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.

not bad for beginners
I think this retinol serum is ok for beginners. I normally use tretinoin but decided to switch it up, however I didn't find that this one did much, it's lovely and hydrating as it's in squalene but overall, not the best. Probably wouldn't buy again.

I see why it’s a cult favourite
This feels great on my skin going on. I use it at night and my skin looks great in the morning. I’ve felt irritation but that is just because I’m increasing the amount of retinol I use. It’s sold me on other products from this brand, it’s great

So oily
Love The Ordinary products but this is so oily. Even using only a few drops for my whole face it just never seems to sink it. Woke up in the middle of the night to my face feeling oily from this. Not a fan!

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.

Skin in glowing
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
