RETINOL 1% IN SQUALANE 30ml

The Ordinary Retinol 1% in Squalane (30ml)

Description

The Ordinary Retinol 1% in Squalane is a high-strength, water-free serum formulated to target visible signs of aging and improve skin texture. Retinol, a powerful derivative of vitamin A, helps boost collagen production, accelerate skin cell turnover, and reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven skin tone. Squalane, a lightweight and non-comedogenic oil, deeply hydrates and soothes the skin, minimising irritation commonly associated with retinol use.

Benefits

Reduces Fine Lines & Wrinkles: Stimulates collagen production for firmer, smoother skin.

Evens Skin Tone: Helps fade hyperpigmentation, dark spots, and post-acne marks.

Improves Skin Texture: Accelerates cell turnover for a refined, youthful complexion.

Hydrating & Nourishing: Squalane prevents dryness and irritation while keeping the skin supple.

Non-Comedogenic Formula: Lightweight, oil-based serum suitable for most skin types.

How to Use

1. Apply in the Evening: After cleansing and drying your skin, apply a few drops to your face.

2. Use Once or Twice a Week Initially: Gradually increase frequency as your skin builds tolerance.

3. Avoid the Eye & Lip Area: Retinol can cause irritation in sensitive areas.

4. Follow with Moisturizer: To lock in hydration and reduce potential dryness.

5. Use Sunscreen Daily: Retinol increases sun sensitivity, so apply SPF 30+ every morning.

Note:

Not recommended for use with other strong actives (e.g., AHAs, BHAs, or direct vitamin C).

Retinol may cause irritation, dryness, or peeling, especially for beginners—introduce it slowly.

Avoid during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

The Ordinary Retinol 1% in Squalane is a potent anti-aging solution designed for experienced retinol users looking to refine skin texture, reduce wrinkles, and achieve a youthful glow.
