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 1% in Squalane (30ml) is a highly stable, high-strength serum featuring 1% pure retinol.
A powerhouse form of vitamin A housed in soothing squalane, the Retinol Serum 1% 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).

Great for sensitive skin
My skin really does not tolerate retinol but I thought I’d give this one a go as it’s mixed with squalane- finally a retinol works on my skin! Would highly recommend if you’re prone to irritation

I had slight irritation to start with but I have moved to using it twice a week in the evening and it has made a great difference to my skin

I adore this!!
This is a staple in my night time skincare routine. My skin loves squalane, it’s so hydrating and nourishing, making this is the only retinol I’ve used that doesn’t dry my skin out. I’ve been doing a 3 day skin cycle for a couple of months so use it 1 night out of 3 but I did use it daily for over a year with no issues. My skin is plump, glowing, fine lines have lessened, previously problem pores are clearer. BUT… start on the lowest percentage and build up if you are new to retinol. And again, if you are starting out with retinol please know your skin will purge… ie) spots.. blackheads.. pimples under the skin. It gets worse before it gets better. Read up on it so you know what you can expect. Also read up on what active ingredients you can use together. :)

Gorgeous scent
Fast becoming my favourite perfume. Gorgeous woody scent that sits on the skin all day without being overwhelmingly strong. I always get compliments about how good I smell whenever I wear it.

Excellent Combination of Retinol and Squalene
This is one of the products from the Ordinary that I will continue to re-stock. It is a gentle retinol in my experience, even for darker skin tones. It helps me with eliminating breakouts.
