Retinol 0.5%

So I’m currently using TO Retinol 0.5% and it’s the best thing ever. However when I put it on on a night, it makes my hair greasy. Can anyone recommend another affordable product or suggest anything that doesn’t make my hair greasy? I do 2-3 drops of this on my face. Also I don’t want to go to bed with my hair up because you’re not supposed to as it can snap your hair at the front of your head.

I love The Ordinary retinol as well! I usually apply it 30-45 minutes before going to sleep so that it absorbs into my skin. You could wear a head band to help protect your hair from the product if you can't apply it earlier. Or maybe use a little less product?

I love that product too! 😍 I don’t have a different product I’d suggest, but I moved my skincare routine a little earlier to give it more time to soak in before bed and it’s worked wonders!
