The Ordinary Retinol 0.5% Serum: Anti-Aging Face Treatment in Squalane for Wrinkles & Skin Texture 30ml

About it

The Ordinary Retinol 0.5% in Squalane is a moderate-strength, targeted retinoid treatment designed to advance your anti-aging routine. Formulated with a 0.5% concentration of pure retinol, this serum is ideal for intermediate users who have already built a tolerance to lower-strength formulas. It works to effectively target visible signs of aging by accelerating surface renewal, boosting collagen production, and improving skin elasticity for a reduction in the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven texture. To ensure a comfortable experience, the potent retinol is suspended in a 100% plant-derived Squalane base. This lightweight yet highly effective emollient works to condition, nourish, and improve skin hydration, mitigating potential dryness or irritation. This clinical, transparent formula from The Ordinary is free of fragrance, parabens, and unnecessary fillers, delivering a single, effective active ingredient. Apply a few drops to your dry face in the evening only, after water-based serums. It is crucial to avoid using other direct acids, retinoids, or Vitamin C concurrently. Always follow with a broad-spectrum sunscreen during the day, as retinol increases sun sensitivity. Refrigerate after opening to maintain stability and potency.
