A noticeable difference to my skin; fresher, tighter pores and no irritation.

I haven't been using this long enough to know how effective it is on lines but I enjoy using it and prefer the texture to some of the other retinols.

A really great product

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

As a 67 year old I'm not always sold on these new types of skincare products, but because The Ordinary's products are so reasonably priced, I thought I'd give them a go. My skin isn't sensitive at all and the only wrinkly bits that really annoy me are the two marionette lines either side of my mouth. Since using this little bottle of loveliness along with the bright red peeling solution used 3 times a week, these lines are starting to be less noticeable. I doubt they'll disappear completely, but I'll certainly keep on using the two products together. This emulsion doesn't irritate my skin at all, it sinks in well and my skin is starting to look fresher, and me less tired. I think I may move up to the 5% one next.

No makeup makeup

I have severe pigmentation on one cheek and while this did not reduce the appearance of that noticeably (I didn't purchase this for lightening reasons anyway). It has made the skin on my cheeks and just below my under eye areas really smooth. I am 36 this year and have just the slightest hints of fine lines, and I think this did a good job of making those lines less obvious. I certainly look like I have foundation on when using this product even though I am not wearing any.

Work's a Treat!

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

Due to disability I take a lot of medication, a lot of which has side effects of basically ruining your skin. Adding this little gem into my skincare routine has made a huge difference, after properly researching the how, when and what with of using retinols it's easily the best addition I've made to my skincare. I now refuse to run out of this!

I would absolutely recommend this, for this price, one of the best retinoids. I find the emulsion is much more friendly to use than in oils
