The Ordinary Retinol 0.5% in Squalane 30ml

Product Overview

The Ordinary Retinol 0.5% in Squalane 30ml is formulated to deliver the benefits of retinol—such as refining texture, reducing fine lines, and promoting a more radiant surface—while maintaining moisture through a squalane base. Providing a medium-strength retinol concentration, it suits users with some retinol experience or those looking for a step up from lower-strength alternatives. With regular use, it can enhance skin smoothness, soften uneven tone, and provide a more youthful glow.

Why Choose This Serum?
