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 the Retinol Serum 0.5% in Squalane (30ml) is a highly stable, high-strength serum featuring 0.5% pure retinol.
A powerhouse form of vitamin A housed in soothing squalane, the Retinol Serum 0.5% in Squalane (30ml) encourages cell turnover, revealing healthier, softer skin.
This stellar serum works hard to minimise the look of fine lines, dark spots and blemishes, while improving skin texture and tone... and we'd be happy with that, but there's more. Supported by squalane (a moisturising ingredient naturally found in your skin) you can expect your complexion to appear smooth and hydrated, with any dryness that can come with retinol use being reduced. We've got heart eyes just thinking about it...
Squalane, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Retinol, Solanum Lycopersicum (Tomato) Fruit Extract, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, BHT.
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 and avoid unprotected sun exposure. Store in a cool, dry place.
Transparency lies at the heart of our philosophy which is why we have partnered with tech-platform – Provenance – to cut through the industry ‘noise’ and equip you with key facts that matter. A 'proof point' with a green tick means a third party has verified the accuracy of the statement whereas no green tick means that there isn't independent confirmation (yet!), but that the brand has still supplied substantiating evidence (which you can view yourself).

Feels great and is pretty hydrating. Can't say whether it helps with lines as I'm still in my early twenties.

Great retinol
I love this retinol, it’s a great entry level product that didn’t cause me any breakouts or sensitivity. It feels greasy on the skin but sinks in after a while. Will repurchase the next strength up after finishing this one

Good
The Ordinary Retinol 1% in Squalane is an excellent choice if you want to incorporate a potent retinol serum into your skincare routine. It provides noticeable results as long as your skin can tolerate the high concentration and possible side effect

Loved it
This was my first time trying The Ordinary Retinol 0.5% in Squalane. The consistency feels like a facial oil and is easy to massage onto the skin. With regular usage, it cleared up tiny marks, pores, and fine lines resulting in noticeable clear and smooth skin. My skin visibly looked better, clear, and improved
