Combat signs of ageing with the Granactive Retinoid Serum 5% in Squalane from The Ordinary; a water-free solution proven to revitalise skin and soften the appearance of fine lines and uneven pigmentation.
Enriched with a 5% concentration of an advanced retinoid active complex called Granactive Retinoid, the lightweight serum improves the moisture balance and elasticity of the skin that leads to a firmer, younger-looking complexion. Antioxidant Squalane prevents UV damage and the formation of age spots whilst counteracting harmful bacteria, leaving you with flawless skin.
Apply a small amount to face in the PM as part of your skincare regimen, after water serums but before heavier treatments. Do not use with other retinoid treatments. Avoid unprotected solar exposure. Store in a cool, dry place.
Squalane, C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate, Bisabolol, Dimethyl Isosorbide, Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate, Solanum Lycopersicum (Tomato) Fruit Extract, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil.

Great
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
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
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
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
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
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
