Introduction

The Ordinary Retinol 0.2% in Squalane is a low-strength retinol serum ideal for beginners ready to introduce vitamin A into their routine. Formulated in a lightweight, squalane base, it helps refine texture, soften fine lines, and enhance radiance—all while keeping skin nourished and comfortable.

Key Benefits

Encourages smoother texture & tone : Contains 0.2% pure retinol, known to promote cell turnover and reveal brighter, more refined-looking skin.

Helps reduce fine lines & early signs of ageing : Regular use supports collagen production, helping to improve the appearance of fine lines over time.

Gentle introduction to retinoids : Formulated for minimal irritation—perfect for first-time retinol users or sensitive skin types.

Deep hydration with squalane : Squalane, a plant-derived emollient, provides lightweight moisture and helps balance dryness often associated with retinoids.

Silky, non-greasy feel : Absorbs easily without residue, layering well with moisturizers and barrier creams.
