The Ordinary Retinol 0.2% in Squalane (30ml) is a gentle yet effective anti-aging serum designed to enhance skin's texture and radiance. Formulated with 0.2% pure Retinol, this water-free solution works to diminish the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven skin tone. Its lightweight, squalane-based formula deeply hydrates and nourishes the skin, reducing the potential for irritation often associated with retinol.
This low-concentration retinol serum is ideal for beginners or those with sensitive skin, providing an entry point into retinoid use while delivering visible results over time. The addition of squalane enhances skin's moisture levels, leaving it soft, smooth, and supple.
