Address signs of ageing with the Retinol Serum 0.5% in Squalane from The Ordinary. It’s a water-free, multipurpose, potent solution that’s formulated to refine pores, reduce the appearance of dark spots and wrinkles and improve skin texture. Enriched with a 0.5% concentration of the anti-ageing powerhouse Retinol, which is a derivative of Vitamin A, the lightweight serum has a plumping and firming effect on the complexion, as well as protecting the skin from harmful environmental aggressors. Another key antioxidant ingredient, Squalane prevents UV damage and the formation of age spots while counteracting harmful bacteria, leaving you with flawless skin.
We love how The Ordinary Retinol Serum works to tackle the first signs of ageing to keep your skin radiant and youthful-looking. Free from water, alcohol, silicone, nut, gluten and soy, this vegan and cruelty-free serum works to plump and firm the skin. Ideal for acneprone or ageing skin, this serum with Retinol and Squalene will minimise the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin tone and texture and refine pores for a more even, youthful finish.

Good value
Good value but very runny and oily. Think I’d prefer a cream consistency for wearing at night.

I must say, The Ordinary's retinol truly lives up to its reputation. This little bottle of magic has worked wonders for my skin. Not only has it visibly diminished those pesky fine lines and wrinkles, but it has also tackled those stubborn dark spots that have been bothering me. The improvement in my skin's texture and overall radiance is remarkable. However, a word of caution: this potent potion requires careful application and a consistent skincare routine to avoid any potential irritation. But if you're willing to put in the effort, the results are definitely worth it!
