This highly stable, water-free, high strength age-defying solution features 1% pure retinol. This special form of vitamin A has been proven to minimise fine lines, improve pigment problems, revitalise skin and make its overall appearance fresher and more youthful. As retinol can cause irritation, The Ordinary recommends beginning your regimen with lower concentrations to allow skin to build up tolerance.
Water- and silicone-free, The Ordinary’s Retinol 1% in Squalane features highly stable retinol, an ingredient that can reduce the appearance of ageing with impressive results. A powerhouse form of vitamin A, retinol encourages cell turnover, revealing healthier, softer skin while also tackling blemishes, dark spots and defying signs of ageing – including softening the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and uneven tone. Retinol can cause significant irritation, including redness and peeling, but many feel that its significant effects counterbalance this; The Ordinary recommends building your skin’s tolerance to retinol with lower concentrations to minimise discomfort.
Apply a small amount to face in the PM as part of your skincare regimen, after water serums but before heavier treatments. Do not use with other retinoid treatments. Avoid unprotected solar exposure. Store in a cool, dry place.
Caution: Retinoids can make the skin more sensitive to UV radiation. Sun protection is particularly important when using retinoids. This product must not be used in conjunction with other retinoids including retinol or retinoic acid. This product is not a treatment for acne. Acne-prone skin may experience a temporary increase in acne during the first few weeks of using any form of retinoid including those used in this formulation.
Note: When pregnant or breastfeeding, it is recommended to avoid any skincare products containing retinoids such as formulations with Granactive Retinoid or Retinol.

works well
Always love TO for being affordable and very straight up no bs marketing principles. Serum works well and it pretty gentle on my skin
Report this reviewgood, but not great
Maybe a bit too oily for my already oily skin. Still does the job though!
Report this reviewIt feels like it never absorbs
I think it's just not for me. My skin is on the oilier side and even though I used it as noted by the instructions and used a small amount, it just felt like a film over my skin. I expected some irritation but the biggest issue here was that I could just feel it move around my face.
Report this reviewLove it
I really love this serum. It does what it promises. It helped me get rid of fine lines in very short time. I already used 3 bottles of this and I am definitely getting it again.Â
Report this reviewNice one
I love this Retinol. It has improved appearance of my skin. After sometime my face felt more firm and fine lines smoothened.Â
Report this reviewbody treatment
Using it on my body as a treatment for stretch marks . it's my second bottle and tbh I haven't seen any results so far..
Report this reviewGood effect
Ordered this one to move from 0,5% to a higher concentration. Works pretty well, really oily texture.
Report this reviewlike the consistence
I have seen so many people really liked the results of this product and now I understand reason why. It's really amazing and helps a lot with acne and pigmentation. Also specially with pores.
Report this reviewI hate its texture
The texture is too thick on my skin. My skin type is oily. I feels like my skin can not absorb any product after applied this retinoid.
