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...

The best
Probably the best affordable retinol I've ever used. And it doesn't irritate my sensitive skin. Love it!

Gentle yet effective
What I love most is that it’s gentle yet effective—no irritation or redness, which I’ve experienced with other retinol products in the past. The packaging is also practical, ensuring the product stays fresh and potent.

Effective for acne
I always forget how good this serum is until I start using it again, it particularly helps a lot with acne, my acne heals and goes away much faster after using this. It also helps a lot with overall skin texture.

Cheap and cheerful
I have been using this product for a couple of months and have finished the tube, so I gave it a good go before reviewing it. The price is very reasonable compared to similar products on the market. The airtight tube with a pump ensures that the product does not oxidise. I get the right amount without any waste. In the beginning, I experienced a little bit of peeling (nothing major), and it looked like the skin was more radiant. After two months, however, it did not do anything, at least nothing that I could see. I will not repurchase,

Best anti-age treatment from the brand
This is the strongest anti-aging solution from The Ordinary. I use it every day before bed, and in the morning, I can see that my crow's feet are smoothing out. I'm already planning to purchase more of this.

RETINAL 0.2 EMULSION
Have been using it twice a week for the last month. It feels very comfortable on my sensitive skin and does not trigger my mild rosacea, even though I am not an experienced user and I bought this thinking it was mild strength. I will have to use it some more to comment on its effectiveness, but so far so good.
