The Ordinary Retinol 0.5% in Squalane 30ml

The Ordinary Retinol 0.5% in Squalane is a moderately potent, water-free serum that delivers the proven benefits of pure Retinol (Vitamin A) to support skin renewal, improve texture, and reduce the appearance of fine lines and early signs of aging. Suspended in a plant-derived squalane base, this formula provides hydration while minimizing the irritation commonly associated with retinoids. It is ideal for users who have already incorporated retinol into their skincare routine and are seeking noticeable results with controlled strength.

Key Benefits:

• Reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
• Promotes smoother, more even skin texture
• Supports hydration and strengthens the skin’s natural barrier with squalane
• Gentle enough for regular nighttime use with minimal irritation
• Water-free formula ensures better stability and absorption

Key Ingredients:

• Retinol (0.5%) – Encourages cell turnover and stimulates collagen production for youthful-looking skin
• Squalane – Lightweight moisturizer that hydrates and soothes the skin
• Jojoba Seed Oil – Improves skin softness and resilience
• Tomato Fruit Extract – Natural antioxidant that protects and supports skin recovery

How to Use:

• Apply a small amount to clean, dry skin in the evening, after water-based serums and before heavier creams or oils.
• Use sunscreen during the day, as retinol can increase sensitivity to sunlight.
• Start by applying 2–3 times per week, gradually increasing frequency as tolerated.

Skin Type:

Best suited for normal, combination, or aging skin. Not recommended for very sensitive skin or retinol beginners; for first-time users, start with 0.2% Retinol instead.
