Product Description

With a high 0.2% concentration of retinal, the Retinal 0.2% Emulsion (15ml) achieves healthier-looking skin by delivering a more direct delivery of vitamin A than retinol.

Working to improve the appearance of pigmentation and fine lines and wrinkles, this superior emulsion also helps to refine skin texture, leaving it soft and smooth. Gaining its colour from the high concentration of retinal (which is naturally yellow), this must-have offsets the common side effects of retinoids with avenanthramide (a key ingredient found in oats) to reduce the feeling of skin discomfort and dryness. In short? We can't see ourselves without this bathroom-shelf staple...

Much better than retinol and no need to use more than twice a week.

I keep repurchasing it....

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

Just great for a smooth and blemish free skin. Careful about the quantity because, even if it is gentler than retinol, retinal can also be a bit drying.

Great product

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

This is a great product at a really good price. I hope The Ordinary do a supersized retinal, but for the moment it’s just 15ml

Instead of the more aggressive retinol

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I heard at the beginning of 2023 for the first time of the potential benefits of retinal on retinol, and I must say I am enjoying the results on my skin since The Ordinary put retinal on the market. Highly recommended!

Excellent

I have a dry, mature skin, and this retinal works very well. I am on my second bottle.

Great consistency

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I previously used the Granactive Retinoid Emulsion, which I preferred to the squalane when it came to consistency. This is (supposed to be) an even more effective form, but still provides a great experience (both when it comes to the application and results). Will definitely continue using this!

Great Retinal

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

Great formula — it doesn’t cause irritation, even on sensitive skin. The packaging is convenient and lets you use every last bit of the product. I agree with other reviews that it would be nice to increase the volume to 30 ml.

Very good

4 stars out of a maximum of 5

For a very strong retinol, this is very good for sensitive skin. I use it twice a week as recommended. I wake up with smooth skin the next day. However it's a small bottle and it doesn't last long and 1 pump is not enough to cover face and neck.. Overall a very good retinol.

Amazing

The best retinol I could find. It really makes a difference, especially if you have scarring and hyperpigmentation.
