Recommended for experienced users of retinoids, the Ordinary’s Retinal 0.2% Emulsion is a potent serum that works over time to target visible signs of ageing.
Suitable for all skin types, the yellow-tinted formula works to diminish the appearance of fine lines, dark spots and uneven tone, while visibly enhancing the skin’s radiance and smoothness. The treatment utilises oat, an ingredient renowned for its soothing properties, to help minimise feelings of sensitivity and dryness post-application. The multi-purpose serum also helps to improve visible elasticity and soften the look of crow’s feet.

This stuff is amazing. It’s a great way to introduce retinal into your routine. It’s very gentle but effective.

Comfortable and easy to use
I had been using the squalane solution before and found it too oily. This is more comfortable on my face. It dries really quickly and doesn’t irritate my skin. My skin is looking great but I have been using a lot of different things like vitamin c, etc.

Value for money retinal
The Ordinary’s Retinal 0.2% is great and when I use is the last serum in my routine before my face cream. Great value for money and seems to be helping with reducing dark spots. I would recommend!

My third bottle
I love the ordinary and this is my third bottle. I’m told I look 30 not 43! Must be doing something good! I use 3 times a weeks as I’m experienced with retinol and love this formula. It must be working as I have very few wrinkles!

Good stuff
Have been using retinol for some time before trying this. Started slow but up to 3x week now and it’s doing wonders for my skin. Hasn’t irritated at all but I’m used to retinol products. Haven’t had a problem with colour transfer either. Am sticking with this as it’s really helping with aging and unevenness.

Skincare staple!
Love this product , comes at the fraction of the price of other higher end products and the results are insane. This has become a staple in my skincare routine. I have very dry sensitive skin and this hasn’t irritated the skin at all. Love the ordinary and will continue to support their company as the products are so affordable and effective! Skin felt firmer within weeks!

The best for the price!
I’m On my second bottle and use 2-3 times a week. It really firms up my skin and I will always use it. Being a higher strength it’s took a few years to work my way up to this but I’m a big believer it’s made my face look 10 yrs younger. Add to your night routine you won’t regret it!
