Favourite Retinoid

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

My skin was quite used to retinol before I tried this product but for the first week it still make my skin a little dry and irritated so I can imagine it's much too harsh for retinol newbies. After the first week, my skin adjusted and now I LOVE this. Will repurchase without a doubt. My fine lines definitely look better

Perfect for someone who wants to move over to retinoids

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I was initially a bit sceptical about purchasing this as I heard so much about skin being tingly etc after applying but it didn't tingle at all and it was a pleasant experience. Its a very light weight oil which gets absorbed in the skin immediately. It's best to use it in the pm routine. My skin is feeling much more smoother than before after using it only 3-6 times.

So good

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

Bought this as used up the 2.5% which I absolutely love, I do prefer the texture or the 2.5% as this is quite oily but presume there’s a reason for this. I use it at night and my skin feels lovely by the morning. I will repurchase

Hero Product

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

My hero product! My problem skin has improved so much after starting my regimine with The Ordinary. I began with the lower strength but have had no problems moving to this 5% retinoid. My only gripe would be that I find the squalane rather greasy and it transfers to my bedclothes at night.
