Already made a huge difference

Have been using it for a week together with the Pixi Glow Tonic. It has gotten rid of blemishes and made my skin noticeable smoother.

Retinol treatment

I really like this product as part of my night time regime. I have been using it only a couple of days and when I wake up next the morning my face looks brighter and rested. I give it only 4 stars because if I use it on its own it's drying my skin out, so I layer it with a serum and a cream. A fantastic product I definitely buy again.

Love the full range

This is a nice non irritating retinoid. Love using it at night on its own when I am being lazy, or pile it with other serums. Leaves my skin a little bit clearer and brighter.

Love it

Since using this product along side some of my other skincare items I've noticed a huge difference in my skin. I used to get a few (nothing major) spots on my chin and around my jawline, however since using once a day/every other I've noticed this doesn't happen anymore.

Can't seem to notice a difference

I'm halfway through my second bottle, and have been using this every night for the past 3-4 months. I have to say as much as I enjoy the concept of the ordinary, this product hasn't done much (if anything) for me. I have oily, textured, acne prone skin, and I have a frown line on my forehead. As far as I could tell this product was meant to have anti-wrinkle effects as well as benefit acne prone skin (over a longer period of time, due to the weak solution in comparison to prescription strength retinoids). At one point I stopped using it for about a week, and the texture of my skin remained the same. I'll probably use up the bottle I have left, but I doubt I'll be repurchasing.

Couldn't tell what it was doing for my skin

I'm in my late twenties with relatively okay skin but this was okay. Used this for a good 2 months, moving from twice a week to every other night but I just didn't see any results. Perhaps my skin doesn't really need a retinoid at this juncture so I've also been using it on my neck / décolletage instead. I didn't break out from it but I don't see any marked improvements.

Did not do much for me

I wanted so much for this to work well on my fine lines and texture. But I often got some breakouts from it, and after 2/3 of the bottle used, I didn't see any difference in my skin other than that I broke out from it quite often, and that I got a bit drier. (I first used it 2 nights a week, added to every other night for some time, and still no really good signs on my skin). Used up on my chest and hands instead.

Fantastic product and price

This brand and this product are game changers. I've been using this product as part of the regime for dehydrated skin and my skin has never looked better. Highly recommend.
