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 joining the brand's stellar line up is the Retinal 0.2% Emulsion (15ml), a high-strength retinoid that smooths and firms the look of skin.
With a high 0.2% concentration of retinal, the Retinal 0.2% Emulsion (15ml) achieves healthier-looking skin by delivering a more direct delivery of vitamin A than retinol.
Working to improve the appearance of pigmentation and fine lines and wrinkles, this superior emulsion also helps to refine skin texture, leaving it soft and smooth. Gaining its colour from the high concentration of retinal (which is naturally yellow), this must-have offsets the common side effects of retinoids with avenanthramide (a key ingredient found in oats) to reduce the feeling of skin discomfort and dryness. In short? We can't see ourselves without this bathroom-shelf staple...

A great price for a great product
As advised I am building up the use of this gradually, but I like the way it feels, the pump dispenses the right amount and it is a great price point.

Nice but small
I really enjoy this product. Gentle but makes an impact. Just wish they did a big size.

Affordable and effective
With consistent use, this product can deliver noticeable improvements in skin clarity, smoothness, and overall tone. Fine lines and early signs of aging are diminished, and the skin takes on a healthier, more youthful glow. It’s also effective at targeting uneven skin tone and mild hyperpigmentation, making it a great option for those looking to refine their complexion.

Good so far
I've used this for a couple of weeks so it's too early to see results, but so far so good. You do need to build up slowly though, I did find my skin was more sensitive after the first use.

Good value for money
One of the few 0.2% retinal products on the market and for such an affordable price! It works as expected and doesn't irritate my skin. Recommended!
