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 the Retinol Serum 1% in Squalane (30ml) is a highly stable, high-strength serum featuring 1% pure retinol.
A powerhouse form of vitamin A housed in soothing squalane, the Retinol Serum 1% in Squalane (30ml) encourages cell turnover, revealing healthier, softer skin.
This stellar serum works hard to minimise the look of fine lines, dark spots and blemishes, while improving skin texture and tone... and we'd be happy with that, but there's more. Supported by squalane (a moisturising ingredient naturally found in your skin) you can expect your complexion to appear smooth and hydrated, with any dryness that can come with retinol use being reduced. We've got heart eyes just thinking about it...
Squalane, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Retinol, Solanum Lycopersicum (Tomato) Fruit Extract, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, BHT.
For the latest information, it is recommended to review the ingredient list printed on the packaging of the product prior to usage or consumption.
Apply a small amount to the face in the evening, after water serums but before heavier treatments. Do not use with other retinoid treatments and avoid unprotected sun exposure. Store in a cool, dry place.
Transparency lies at the heart of our philosophy which is why we have partnered with tech-platform – Provenance – to cut through the industry ‘noise’ and equip you with key facts that matter. A 'proof point' with a green tick means a third party has verified the accuracy of the statement whereas no green tick means that there isn't independent confirmation (yet!), but that the brand has still supplied substantiating evidence (which you can view yourself).

I like it
Last year in autumn I tried 0.5% retinol from the Ordinary. This year I tried 1%. You need to be very careful and add it to your daily care starting from 1-2 per week and ending with once per 2 days. Also, I add more hydration cause my skin has dry type. This serum makes my face look good. I see myself without makeup in a mirror and think that I'm beautiful.

Excellent retinol serum.
I am 77 years old and have fine line and wrinkles! Â My go to treatment is retinol. Â I have used several different makes in recent years but find this one best. Â The squalane also acts to hydrate my skin. Â The two together work very well feeding my skin and reducing wrinkles. I use this at night following cleansing and I top off with another moisturiser.

Trusted staple of my skincare routine
Excellent retinol product and affordable as well.Initial skin irritation does happen when starting to use but the squalane does help with the long-term drying effects.

Can’t live without it !
I’ve used a few products with retinol but always seem to come back to this one - I don’t use it everyday because I have sensitive skin, but twice a week does it for me. It has improved my texture and overall acne scarring!!! I absolutely cannot live without it !!! Try itÂ

Good product, bad using experience.
I used the Inkeylist retinol before this one, but yeez. Although my skin loves it, the experience drives me crazy! I've a combination skin, and it feels just sitting on top of my skin, and I'm gonna be a greasy mess from this serum. I use retinol 2-3 times a week. I'm going to use it up, and never buy again.

Great for the price!
I love the effect retinol has on my skin and really like this being mixed with the squalane. You do have to persevere with this, I used it every other day to start and developed some dry patches and had a breakout of cystic spots, this lasted about 10 days then I really started to see the benefits of this and my skin now has such a glow. I use this just at night mixed in with my heavy night moisturiser to keep my skin hydrated!Â

Doesn't do anything for me
Doesn't do anything for me.. My skin just doesn't want to soak it in, because it's so extremely oily. Then I go to sleep and it all goes everywhere except into my skin. There are much better retinols out there that have saved my extremely acne-prone skin.

Great retinol
I'm a big fan of retinols now that I'm 40 (yikes). My skin is very dry but is used to retinol and this one isn't drying. In the evening after cleansing I apply this retinol, then The Ordinary's Buffet and then a moisturizing mask. Cruelty free and highly recommended.
