The Ordinary Retinol 0.5% in Squalane 30ml
Boost Skin Renewal and Fight Aging with Retinol
The Ordinary Retinol 0.5% in Squalane is a highly effective anti-aging serum designed to improve skin texture, reduce fine lines, and promote a youthful complexion. Retinol, a form of Vitamin A, is known for its ability to enhance cell turnover, stimulating collagen production and reducing the visible signs of aging. This moderate-strength formulation contains 0.5% retinol, making it ideal for those who have some experience with retinoid treatments. Squalane, a hydrating ingredient, balances the drying effects of retinol, ensuring that the skin stays moisturized and soothed.
Key Features:
- Retinol (0.5%): A potent form of Vitamin A that accelerates skin cell renewal, reducing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven skin tone.
- Squalane: A lightweight, non-greasy oil that hydrates and nourishes the skin, preventing dryness and irritation associated with retinol use.
- Water-Free & Stable Formula: The water-free formula ensures the stability of retinol, delivering consistent results without degradation.
- Moderate Strength: Suitable for those familiar with retinol use, this concentration provides effective results with a reduced risk of irritation.
Benefits:
- Reduces Fine Lines & Wrinkles: Promotes smoother, more youthful-looking skin by boosting collagen production and cell renewal.
- Improves Skin Texture: Helps even out rough skin texture, reducing the appearance of blemishes and acne scars.
- Minimizes Pores: Regular use can help reduce the appearance of enlarged pores, leading to clearer and more refined skin.
- Hydrates & Nourishes: Squalane prevents the drying effects of retinol, ensuring the skin stays soft and moisturized.
- Anti-Aging: An effective solution for early signs of aging, such as fine lines, uneven tone, and loss of firmness.
How to Use:
- Apply a small amount to your face in the evening, after cleansing and before applying heavier treatments or moisturizers.
- Avoid the eye area and any sensitive areas.
- Begin using the product 2-3 times per week and gradually increase frequency as your skin builds tolerance.
