The Ordinary Retinol 1% in Squalane – 30ml
The Ordinary’s Retinol 1% in Squalane is a high-strength, water-free serum designed to target multiple signs of aging and enhance skin’s overall appearance. This potent formula works to visibly refine skin texture, reduce the look of fine lines, and minimize the appearance of pores and dark spots, promoting a smoother, more youthful-looking complexion.
At the heart of this formulation is retinol, a powerful derivative of vitamin A known for its ability to accelerate skin renewal. With a 1% concentration, this serum helps improve skin firmness and elasticity while working to soften the look of wrinkles and uneven skin tone. Over time, it encourages a more radiant, refined complexion.
To counteract potential dryness and irritation often associated with retinol use, this serum is infused with squalane, a deeply hydrating and antioxidant-rich emollient that helps maintain moisture balance. Squalane also acts as a protective barrier against environmental aggressors, including UV damage, which can contribute to premature aging and sun-induced discoloration.

How to Use:
