Fantastic product for a great price
It does really work, I saw results the next day. Happy with my purchase. Please note you do have to use it sparingly and it is really oily but the results are great.

I see a difference!
Sooo I know the lighting of the photos isnât the best but they are all before then after, after about 2 weeks. The last one is me made up. I feel like my pores and overall texture of my skin is improved.I was able to go into using this basically once a day immediately because I was using Olays purple rentiol night cream prior to(idk how much retinol is in that product but it may help to transition into actual rentiol treatment). I had no dryness, peeling or serious breakouts. No complaints on scent either.I have to say Iâm not the best at washing my face if Iâm not showering so my nightly routine at bare minimum(cuz working 2 jobs as a single mom means we ainât got time for much more than that) is remove the makeup, rentiol oil to soak in for about 15 min, then moisturize(store brand cetaphil). Always making sure to put spf primer on in the am before makeup as well(elf suntouchable).Iâm about a month into this routine with no complaints. Hope this review helps yâall!

Great Product, but Ingredient Concerns
The Ordinary Retinol 0.5% in Squalane is an effective, budget-friendly retinol product that has delivered noticeable results for my skin, but thereâs one big drawback that keeps it from being perfect.Pros:Affordable: High-quality retinol at a fraction of the cost of similar products.Effective: Helped smooth my skin texture and reduce the appearance of fine lines over time.Gentle formula: The squalane base is hydrating and minimizes irritation compared to other retinol products.Cons:Ingredient concern: The inclusion of BHT (a preservative) is disappointing. I prefer products without this additive, as thereâs some debate about its safety in skincare and ability to disrupt the endocrine system.Overall, while the performance and price are excellent, Iâm hesitant to repurchase due to the BHT. If this doesnât concern you, itâs a fantastic choice for incorporating retinol into your routine.

Great
This is the best retinol Iâve ever ever used. It almost feels like an oil-based so obviously when it goes on my skin, it feels super super hydrating. The only thing I would say is that it takes a long time to actually absorb into my skin and then put moisturizer as my last step. It takes a while in between I can do those but for the price and for everything else, I donât think Iâm gonna be looking for another retinol for quite some time.

Attention ça au frigo après ouverture je ne lâavais pas vu. Jâai la peau sèche et sensible et aucune réaction cutanée. Jâai commencé par une fois par semaine sur deux semaines puis pendant deux semaines tous les 4 jours et jâen suis à tous les 3 jours. Il faut du temps pour avoir des résultats (on dit 2 a 3 mois) mais en tout cas nickel. Je mets ce Retinol après ma brume aux céramiste et serum hyaluronique. Je mets ensuite la crème mixa bebe nourrissante aux ceramides: le Retinol aime le gras
