The Ordinary has firmly cemented itself as a leader in science-backed skin care. Taking the guesswork out of building a regime, it ditches unnecessary, filler ingredients for familiar, hard-working actives that deliver promising results. And next to bless your complexion is the Granactive Retinoid Serum 5% in Squalane (30ml), a high-strength serum softening the look of fine lines and wrinkles.
Starring retinoid active technology, the Granactive Retinoid Serum 5% in Squalane (30ml) is a water-free solution working to exfoliate and renew the look of skin.
Keen to improve the appearance of your skin with a retinoid but wary of the potential side effects like dryness and redness? This hardworking serum could be just what you need; achieving faster-acting results than traditional retinol but keeping the look of the skin barrier in check. Housed in a light-as-air formula that refreshes and restores, it improves the appearance of pigmentation, fine lines and fatigue... no wonder it's at the top of our wishlist!
Squalane, C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate, Bisabolol, Dimethyl Isosorbide, Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate, Solanum Lycopersicum (Tomato) Fruit Extract, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil.
For the latest information, it is recommended to review the ingredient list printed on the packaging of the product prior to usage or consumption.
Apply a small amount to the face in the evening, after water serums but before heavier treatments. Do not use with other retinoid treatments. Avoid unprotected sun exposure and store in a cool, dry place.

Very oily
I've just bought the 5% retinol and after reading the reviews I thought I'd give it a try... I find that it's very oily/greasy and after 2 hours it didn't seem to absorb into my skin, it just sat on top leaving me wondering if there is any way I could make it absorb?? I currently used the 2% and found it to absorbs right away, I just wish it was the same consistency as their 2%. Quite disappointed, not sure if I'd purchase again because of this.

Best retinoid ever!
I have been using tretinoin for years; first the low strength, then the high... I have been struggling with dryness for years. Since using Granactive Retinoid 5% in Squalane for the past two weeks, I've found it to be high strength with little to no irritation. My skin looks beautiful and I will continue to use it for the rest of my life. Best product ever!

Granactive Retinoid 5% in Squalane
I started off using Retinol 0.2% in Squalane for a couple of weeks and then moved on to Granactive Retinoid 5% in Squalane and I'm loving it! It's been a long long time since my skin looked this good. It's clearer, firmer and lines/wrinkles have definitely reduced. I'm 65 years old and will be using The Ordinary products from now on.

I like
I can see the difference in my skin after 6 months of use. It softens the lines of expression and is not an aggressive product.

It works!
I have dark patches on my face and I have seen a difference after using it a month. I use it twice a week as it makes my face itch if I use it more. I will build up to everyday slowly.

It really works!
I had been using The Ordinary 2% Emulsion for around 6 months and absolutely loved it and thought it was time to upgrade to the 5%. After reading online reviews about this from people who previously loved the emulsion and switched to this one (and not loving it as much) I was worried about it not being as effective in terms of absorbing into the skin as well as the emulsion. But I'm happy to say it works just as well and I'm seeing lovely results after just 2.5 weeks of using it. I started with every other night but now use it nightly. My skin feels sooo hydrated and soft with a fabulous glow! I can't stop touching it! Switching to 5% was definitely worth it for me, I can't wait to see how it continues to work on my skin.

A good product
I tried the 2% for a month without any irritation and therefore purchased this one to try. I can see that my skin is more clear and even just after using this for a few days. This product really works.
