The Ordinary has firmly cemented itself as a leader in science-backed skin care. Taking the guesswork out of building a regime, it ditches unnecessary, filler ingredients for familiar, hard-working actives that deliver promising results. And joining the brand's stellar line up is the Retinal 0.2% Emulsion (15ml), a high-strength retinoid that smooths and firms the look of skin.
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...

Instead of the more aggressive retinol
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
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
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
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.

Repurchase
Happy with the strength until I move over to tretinoin but love the creamy consistency. I use it daily so 15ml gets used up quite quickly
