The Ordinary Retinol 1% in Squalane

Retinol 1% in Squalane is a water-free solution with 1% retinol, a substance that evens out skin tone and texture and reduces the appearance of fine and dynamic lines caused by a loss of collagen and elastin. Furthermore, squalane, a moisturizing ingredient that is naturally present in your skin and improves surface-level hydration while assisting in the fight against dryness linked to retinol use, is included in this expert-level solution.

The Ordinary Tip: Start with Retinol 0.2% in Squalane and work your way up to Retinol 0.5% in Squalane and Retinol 1% in Squalane. If sensitivity is a problem for you, consider our Granactive Retinoid 2% Emulsion or one of the newer retinoid technologies.

How to Use The Ordinary Retinol 1%

• Patch testing is recommended before use. Keep out of children's reach.

• As part of your skincare routine, apply a tiny amount to your face in the evening, following water-based serums but before more intense treatments. 

• Use sun cream while being exposed to the sun.

• Use only one retinoid therapy at a time. Steer clear of direct sun exposure. 

Note: Retinol should be used with caution as the skin develops tolerance to it. In the early phases of treatment, it can irritate, redden, and peel, especially around the mouth and eyes. If irritation becomes constant, stop using and see a doctor. Apply only as instructed on intact skin.
