The Ordinary’s Retinol Serum 1% in Squalane is a water-free, multi-purpose solution formulated to reduce the appearance of pores, dark spots and fine lines, and improve the overall appearance of skin’s texture.
Enriched with a 1% concentration of the anti-ageing powerhouse retinol, which is a derivative of vitamin A, the lightweight serum delivers visible plumping and firming effects to your skin. Another key antioxidant ingredient, squalane, protects against UV damage and helps to minimise the risk of sun-induced age spots, leaving you with a more even-looking skin tone.

Not sure if this product is strong enough.
I’ve used retinol products before and am using this at nighttime. So far I’m not finding it that strong that it’s having any difference to my skin. Will have to wait and see but in comparison to other products on the market it’s not provided any benefits so far so I’m neutral and waiting to see if it does more over time.

Great
Only a small amount of this is needed for each use as if you use to much it feels super oily, however the results so far have been amazing and would highly recommend

Must have
This is a fantastic retinol, it absorbs beautifully into clean skin. It is reducing aging on the face. I have had no reaction to it, I do always put eye cream on under eyes which is where I can be sensitive. An excellent price point too!

Repurchased time & time again
Lost count of how many bottles of this I’ve gone through now. A staple in my nighttime skincare routine. Leaves my skin feeling so nourished and hydrated. Can never be without.

Great
This bottle has lasted me a long time. I haven’t noticed dramatic changes in my face though - but I don’t have many pores to deal with.

3 stars as just started using, have had red bumps next day after using so building up and don't use everyday, awaiting results but skin does look a bit clearer and breakouts are normal when first using retinol so will continue to use
