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).

It feels like it never absorbs
I think it's just not for me. My skin is on the oilier side and even though I used it as noted by the instructions and used a small amount, it just felt like a film over my skin. I expected some irritation but the biggest issue here was that I could just feel it move around my face.

Love it
I really love this serum. It does what it promises. It helped me get rid of fine lines in very short time. I already used 3 bottles of this and I am definitely getting it again.

Good effect
Ordered this one to move from 0,5% to a higher concentration. Works pretty well, really oily texture.

like the consistence
I have seen so many people really liked the results of this product and now I understand reason why. It's really amazing and helps a lot with acne and pigmentation. Also specially with pores.

I hate its texture
The texture is too thick on my skin. My skin type is oily. I feels like my skin can not absorb any product after applied this retinoid.

So-so
I ordered this and 1% strength retinol. First of all, i had no skin reactions as i experienced with other brand retinol serums. Second, this didn't get rid of my sun spots (as the other brand retinol serum did). I kept it in the fridge, as suggested. So i wouldn't repurchase as it did nothing for me.
