Granactive Retinoid 5% in Squalane
I love this retinol! I’ve been using it for a week now and have noticed a significant difference in my skin texture. It’s also very hydrating for a retinol which is a big plus for me as I have dry skin. It has an oil type texture and you only need a ...
Nothing, this product is great!

Granactive Retinoid 5% in Squalane
I've always wanted to try a retinol product, but I was scared to try it because of its supposed irritating effects on the skin. But when I did my research, I stumbled upon this online. And I do not regret buying this because this is one of my holy gr...
During the first few weeks of using this, I had a minor purging on my face. Small whiteheads appeared around my lips, but the consistent usage of this product made it disappear.

Granactive Retinoid 5% in Squalane
This was my first time trying retinol and I am glad I went with The Ordinary Retinol 0.5% in Squalane. The consistency feels like a facial oil and is easy to massage onto the skin. With regular usage, it cleared up tiny marks, pores, and fine lines r...

Granactive Retinoid 5% in Squalane
I've heard a lot of mixed reviews about retinol. Some people's skin loves it and others can't tolerate it at all. I decided to jump right in with the ordinary 5% and to my surprise...my skin would KILL for this stuff. I can't believe it works so well...
It does go on really greasy. Takes awhile to absorb. That's my only complaint, but it's not enough to make me stop using it.

Granactive Retinoid 5% in Squalane
Works very quickly 💨 and doesnt dry 🏜 my skin out as much as it should for the strength 💪!! Not a lot of/long time ⏳️ purging w this product either. In the morning ☀️ my skin looks less red 🔴 than it did the night 🌙 before and my pores are tight...
The serum is a thin oil 🪔 which makes it hard to apply and it leaves a greasy texture on the skin even after applying moisturizer. It also stings 🐝 a bit (this is not surprising for what it is AND not really a complaint!! its just smth ive noticed)...

Granactive Retinoid 5% in Squalane
It's a good product, I didn't experience any irritation, but used it in the moisture sandwich technique. I started to see results after the first month in wrinkles smoothening.
The formula is thick and will take time to absorb In the skin.
