Skin care doesn't have to be confusing. The INKEY List is on a mission to debunk beauty jargon and put the power of knowledge in your hands. Its straight-talking range includes all the industry's best-loved heroes (from retinol to hyaluronic acid) in no-frills formulations that deliver incredible results. A case in point? The Retinol Serum (30ml), a nighttime treatment that works to reduce the look of fine lines, wrinkles and uneven texture.
Looking for a skin care reset while you sleep? Cue The INKEY List's Retinol Serum (10ml).
A derivative of vitamin A, retinol refreshes your complexion. Calling on two different forms of this hard-working ingredient, this concoction unites 1% retinyl acetate to gently resurface skin while a 0.5% granactive retinoid leaves your skin feeling plumper. Plus, its slow-release formula minimises sensitivity while still minimising fine lines, wrinkles, pigmentation and blemishes. That's not all; it's also infused with squalane to intensely hydrate your visage and protect your delicate moisture barrier. The results? A complexion that looks brighter, smoother and firmer.

Only use Retinol Serum in your PM skin care routine. After cleansing and hydrating, apply a pea-sized amount of Retinol Serum and massage into to the face and neck. Follow with preferred moisturiser. Start off using it 1-2 times per week and increase gradually if your skin can tolerate more frequent use.

Will absolutely buy again
Love this retinol so much. I had previously purchased other retinol products, but this one is fabulous and a fraction of the price. I can feel and see it working, but it’s not too harsh and lasts for ages. I’ll keep purchasing this again and again, well done Inkey List

Love it
This is easily as good as any retinol on the market and better than most, and I have been using retinol products for many years now. The formulation is great it feels comfortable sinks in well leaves my skin feeling smooth. I had no peeling or discomfort so it obviously suits my aging skin and it has lasted well over six weeks. I would pay a lot more for this product but I am glad it's so reasonably priced. Its effective, accessible and easy to use. Love it

Best yet
I am an ex The ordinary user and decided to research other brands as the current Deciem drama unfolds. I'm glad I went down this road and I now actually prefer The Inkey List. I was worried about using 1% Retinol, but the texture of the serum is fantastic and although my neck is a little sensitive to it, my face has already started to look more fresh. My only gripe is that the consistency of the serum is a little bit too runny for the tub it is in and I often have some leaking out. I don't want to waste a drop, so I just store it upside down.

Retinol
Omg, this retinol is brilliant, such a pleasure to use, so light and sinks in straight away, and no nasty smell, my skin is transformed in the morning, much smoother, firmer and more of an even skin tone, highly recommend this product.

Amazing
I have been using this for around a week and my skin feels amazing! I have not broken out (a fear for me). I am very happy with the results thus far and cannot wait to buy again. For the price and results I'd recommend 100%

Lovely Texture, Smooth Skin
I've only ever used one retinol before but it was oil based and I found it really hard to layer so I was a bit skeptical when I saw this contained Squalane. However, the texture is lovely. Somewhere between a serum and a cream but definitely not oily but moisturising and feels hydrating. My skin feels really smooth in the morning after use and my skin texture has really improved. Would definitely recommend.

Made me break out
I’ve used retinol before and never had an issue but this made me break out. Maybe it’s too strong for me
