The Ordinary Retinol 0.5% in Squalane 30ml

The Ordinary Retinol 0.5% in Squalane is a moderate-strength retinol formulation suitable for users already familiar with retinol. Retinol, a form of Vitamin A, works to accelerate skin cell turnover, helping to visibly reduce the appearance of fine lines, photo-damage, dullness, and uneven skin texture.

This serum is formulated in a squalane base, a lightweight, non-comedogenic oil that hydrates and soothes the skin while reducing irritation commonly linked to retinol use. With consistent use, the skin appears smoother, more radiant, and youthful.

Key Features:

• 0.5% pure retinol for visible anti-aging benefits

• Targets fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven skin tone

• Promotes smoother, healthier-looking skin

• Hydrating squalane base for barrier support

• Lightweight, fast-absorbing texture

• Vegan, cruelty-free, alcohol-free, silicone-free

How to Use:

1. Apply a few drops in the evening after cleansing and before heavier creams.

2. Use 2–3 times a week, increasing frequency as skin builds tolerance.

3. Avoid use with other retinoids and direct acids in the same routine.

4. Always wear sunscreen during the day when using retinol products.

5. Perform a patch test before first use.
