Brand: The Ordinary Skin type: All types Product benefits: Even skin tone, anti-aging, wrinkles Product form: Serum Used for: Face Scent: Aloe vera Special ingredients: Hyaluronic acid Material features: Vegetarian Active ingredients: Lactic acid Weight: 30 grams About this item The 1% Retinol with Squalane serum from The Ordinary features highly stable retinol, a component that can reduce the appearance of signs of aging with remarkable results. A powerful form of vitamin A, retinol encourages cell renewal, revealing healthier and smoother skin, and also treats blemishes, dark spots, and signs of aging. Indications for use: Treat signs of aging, pigmentation, and achieve high radiance. This highly stable, water-free solution with high potency challenges signs of aging with 1% pure retinol. This special form of vitamin A has been proven to reduce fine lines, improve pigmentation issues, activate the skin, and make its overall appearance more radiant and youthful. Since retinol can cause irritation, The Ordinary recommends starting with lower concentrations to allow the skin to build tolerance. Apply a small amount to the face in the evening as part of the skincare routine, after water-based serum but before heavy treatments. Do not use with other retinoid treatments. Avoid unprotected sun exposure. Store in a cool, dry place. Warning: Retinoids can make skin more sensitive to ultraviolet rays. Sun protection is especially important when using retinoids. This product should not be used with other retinoids, including retinol or tretinoin. It works on cell renewal, revealing healthier and smoother skin, while also treating impurities, dark spots, and challenging signs of aging — including softening the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and uneven skin tone. This original product from The Ordinary is made in Canada, a Canadian-made original product. Important information Safety information Keep out of reach of children.

This water-free solution contains 1% pure retinol, a component that can reduce the appearance of fine lines, photo damage, and overall skin aging. While retinol can be irritating to the skin, newer techniques mimic the visual effects of retinol without causing skin irritation. For this reason, we generally recommend using Granactive Retinoid 2% or Granactive Retinoid 5% instead of this formulation. Warning: Retinol can cause significant irritation, redness, and peeling, especially around the eyes and mouth, in early stages of treatment as your skin can tolerate. If you have not used high-strength retinol formulations before, strongly recommend starting your retinol routine with 0.2% retinol in Squalane and gradually moving to higher strengths like 0.5% and 1% retinol in Squalane as your skin tolerates. Directions: Apply a small amount to the face in the evening as part of your skincare routine, after water-based serum but before heavy treatments. Do not use with other retinoid treatments. Avoid unprotected sun exposure.
