I see why it’s a cult favourite

This feels great on my skin going on. I use it at night and my skin looks great in the morning. I’ve felt irritation but that is just because I’m increasing the amount of retinol I use. It’s sold me on other products from this brand, it’s great

So oily

2 stars out of a maximum of 5

Love The Ordinary products but this is so oily. Even using only a few drops for my whole face it just never seems to sink it. Woke up in the middle of the night to my face feeling oily from this. Not a fan!

I really like this. Took a couple of weeks of using every other day for my skin to adjust. Goes on and absorbs nicely. Good price.

My skin looks so good after applying this. It goes on so beautifully. I like that it tells you the retinol % so you can increase it easily

Great value for money!

This is my 3rd bottle of Retinol solution and am very pleased with the results. As it is quite oily I tend to use this at night to let it sink in and do its magic.

Effective but proceed with caution. The Ordinary's Retinol Serum in Squalane delivers results in terms of improving skin texture and reducing fine lines, but it can be quite potent, especially for those with sensitive skin. I've experienced some mild irritation and dryness, so I recommend starting with a lower concentration if you're new to retinol.
