Love it!!!!!

I'm a premium beauty product junkie so was a little skeptical about this product as it is so reasonably priced! I take it back - it's fab and although I have very sensitive skin, it was very gentle. I can see a real difference and it makes my other beauty products work harder! I gave my husband some to try and didn't really say much about it, however, the next day he asked what it was as he could see a difference after just one use! Follow the instructions, introduce it slowly and as always use sunscreen. Will definitely be reordering.

Love it!

A wonderful product - gentle, non-irritating, not too drying. I have sensitive, combination skin and I'm very acne prone, and I've found that with regular use (tolerance built up over time) my pigmentation has reduced and my skin looks smoother and more even. I use in the PM after cleansing, before moisturiser. I found that I had to use a heavier moisturiser (I used Eucerin 5% Urea) when I first started using this product more regularly over the winter.

Great anti aging product

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

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

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!

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

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.
