The Ordinary Retinol 0.5% in Squalane
Editor's Note
Description
Combat the visible signs of aging with The Ordinary Retinol 0.5% in Squalane. This moderate-strength, highly effective facial serum features a water-free formulation containing 0.5% pure Retinol. It is expertly designed to improve the appearance of fine lines that result from a loss of collagen and elastin, while simultaneously evening out skin texture and tone for a more youthful, radiant complexion.
Because retinol can often cause skin dryness and irritation as your skin builds tolerance, this intermediate formulation is cleverly supported by Squalane—a natural, plant-derived moisturizing agent naturally found in the skin. The Squalane base provides deep, weightless hydration that nourishes the skin barrier and helps it better withstand the drying effects of the retinol. Ideal for those who have built a basic tolerance to retinoids, this nighttime serum is your key to a smoother, healthier, and more resilient glow.
