Great anti aging product

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

Great product, non invasive, non irritating. Skin just sloughs off, no peeling. I will be upgrading to 5% in squalene when I have used it all up.

Great purchase

I used this to treat my teenage son's acne - it has cleared it up so much and now there are just a few spots on his cheek as opposed to all over his face!! Very happy!

I wanted to like it...

I wanted to like this after previously using retinoids. However, I broke out more than I ever have in my life. My skin hasn't been the same since.

Holy Grail

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I am afraid of Retinol. I am not ready for the peeling that comes with retinol usage. As per the description in Ordinary website, one can get acne at the initial stage of usage. I have been using this product for one month ( twice a week) now. I have seen significant improvement in my skin since the first usage. I didn't get any acne using this. Usually, it takes over 6 months to reap the benefit of Retinol, I could see the benefit in a month. My skin has become soft and little plump. Pros: 1. Superrr Cheap 2.Visibly clear skin 3. Soft and supple skin Cons: 1. Slight (negligible) peeling over nose and forehead.

Good product

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

This is very gentle on my skin and after using it for two weeks I see some difference in the suppleness of the skin. Good product to start with if you are wanting to use retinol

It works!

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

Makes my skin clearer after each use and does not dry out or irritate the skin. It works as well as the more expensive retinols.

Amazing

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I bought it for my mother, she's in her 50's. She was shocked by how awesome this product is! She also used it on her hands (she's very insecure about them) and said her hands never looked this better. I'm happy her skin responded this well, I will keep buying it for her.

Awesome introduction to The Ordinary

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I purchased this in late December and my bottle is nearly finished. So little irritation that the product actually feels soothing to my skin. My face glows the morning after using this and it's definitely softened my skin. I'll be trying 0.5% retinol next but will likely repurchase this too to use on days I don't use the stronger serum. I'm so impressed.
