Caution: Retinol can cause irritation, redness and peeling, especially around the eyes and mouth, in the early stages of treatment while skin builds tolerance. If persistent irritation occurs, cease use and consult a physician. Use only as directed on unbroken skin. Patch testing prior to use is advised. Refer to our in-depth guide to patch testing. Keep out of reach of children. Refrigerate after opening.

The Ordinarys Retinol 0.2% in Squalane features highly stable retinol, an ingredient that can reduce the appearance of ageing with impressive results.

A powerhouse form of vitamin A, retinol encourages cell turnover, revealing healthier, softer skin while also tackling blemishes, dark spots and defying signs of ageing including softening the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and uneven tone.

Retinol can cause significant irritation, including redness and peeling but many feel that its significant effects counterbalance this; The Ordinary recommends building your skins tolerance to retinol with lower concentrations such as this to minimise discomfort.
