The Ordinary Retinol 0.5% in Squalane

Product Overview

The Ordinary Retinol 0.5% in Squalane is a water free serum formulated with 0.5% Retinol, a form of Vitamin A commonly used in skincare routines focused on visible signs of aging and uneven skin texture. The moderate strength formula helps improve the appearance of fine lines, skin texture, and uneven skin tone with regular use.

The formula combines Retinol with Squalane, an emollient ingredient that helps support skin hydration and comfort. As Retinol can cause dryness or irritation when first introduced, this product should be added gradually to a skincare routine.
