THE ORDINARY - Retinol 0.2% in Squalane (30ml/1oz)

The THE ORDINARY Retinol 0.2% in Squalane is a gentle, entry-level retinol serum designed to target visible signs of aging, such as fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven skin tone. Formulated with 0.2% retinol, a potent derivative of Vitamin A, this serum helps to accelerate skin renewal and improve skin texture, while being suspended in squalane for additional hydration and a soothing effect. Ideal for those new to retinol or with sensitive skin, this treatment provides the benefits of retinol without excessive irritation.

• 0.2% Retinol: Retinol is a well-known anti-aging ingredient that promotes cell turnover, reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and enhances skin texture and radiance. The 0.2% concentration makes it suitable for those starting with retinol or those with sensitive skin.

• Squalane: A lightweight, hydrating oil derived from plants, squalane helps to nourish the skin, preventing dryness and irritation often associated with retinol products.

• Gentle and Soothing: The squalane base provides a calming effect, making this product ideal for those who are introducing retinol into their skincare routine or have sensitive skin.

• Non-Comedogenic: The formula is designed to be non-comedogenic, so it won't clog pores, making it suitable for acne-prone skin.

• Cruelty-Free: Like all products from The Ordinary, this retinol serum is cruelty-free.
