The Ordinary Retinol 1% in Squalane (30ml) is a potent anti-aging serum designed to promote smoother, more youthful-looking skin. This formula combines high-strength retinol with squalane to target fine lines, wrinkles, and skin texture, while minimizing the irritation commonly associated with retinol products.
Key Features:
Retinol (1%): A powerful form of Vitamin A that accelerates skin turnover, stimulates collagen production, and helps reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven skin tone.
Squalane: A hydrating ingredient that nourishes and soothes the skin, helping to reduce dryness or irritation caused by retinol.
Non-Irritating: The squalane base buffers the strength of retinol, making it more suitable for users with sensitive skin or those who have built up a tolerance to retinol.
Fragrance-Free & Non-Comedogenic: Won’t clog pores and is suitable for most skin types, including sensitive skin.
Vegan & Cruelty-Free: Free from animal-derived ingredients and not tested on animals.
Directions for Use:
Apply a few drops to clean, dry skin in the evening, avoiding the eye area.
For beginners, start by using it 2-3 times per week, gradually increasing the frequency as your skin builds tolerance.
Always use sunscreen during the day while using retinol, as it can increase sun sensitivity.
Suitable For:
Those looking to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation.
Individuals with normal to oily skin, or those who have previously used retinol products and have developed a tolerance.
The Ordinary Retinol 1% in Squalane is ideal for more advanced users of retinol who want to address signs of aging and improve skin texture with a more concentrated formula.
