Great

4 stars out of a maximum of 5

Not been using this too long but it definitely has improved my skin texture, tone and the fine lines. No sensitivity. Will see how it goes.

Bit oily

4 stars out of a maximum of 5

This feels oily when applying and takes a while to absorb. No irritation so far so that’s good.

Repeat purchase

After my first bottle I stopped using it and my skin went back to looking full and bumpy, started using it again and I have my glow back. It really works.

Inexpensive and works

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I have found that since using retinol my skin has improved significantly and I find that the ordinary offers a high strength product that you can build up to get to the desired strength at a reasonable price. I haven’t had any reactions or anything and I use nightly but I did build up gradually.

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
