Skin care doesn't have to be confusing. The INKEY List is on a mission to debunk beauty jargon and put the power of knowledge in your hands. Its straight-talking range includes all the industry's best-loved heroes (from retinol to hyaluronic acid) in no-frills formulations that deliver incredible results. A case in point? The Retinol Serum (30ml), a nighttime treatment that works to reduce the look of fine lines, wrinkles and uneven texture.
Looking for a skin care reset while you sleep? Cue The INKEY List's Retinol Serum (10ml).
A derivative of vitamin A, retinol refreshes your complexion. Calling on two different forms of this hard-working ingredient, this concoction unites 1% retinyl acetate to gently resurface skin while a 0.5% granactive retinoid leaves your skin feeling plumper. Plus, its slow-release formula minimises sensitivity while still minimising fine lines, wrinkles, pigmentation and blemishes. That's not all; it's also infused with squalane to intensely hydrate your visage and protect your delicate moisture barrier. The results? A complexion that looks brighter, smoother and firmer.

Only use Retinol Serum in your PM skin care routine. After cleansing and hydrating, apply a pea-sized amount of Retinol Serum and massage into to the face and neck. Follow with preferred moisturiser. Start off using it 1-2 times per week and increase gradually if your skin can tolerate more frequent use.

Great Retinol Starter
A fab product to get started with Retinol. I have personally found that it works best when I put it on dry skin in the evening after cleansing and then wait about 10 mins before continuing with the rest of my routine to give it time to sink in. Has never given me the "retinol uglies" but has definitely improved my dark marks. And you can't beat such a low price for retinol!

Good
It is good, light and didn't have any negative symptoms. But waiting for the results needs more time.

No irritation
It’s a bit early to say if it’s working, but every morning I wake up with nice skin and it never gave me any irritation. I have to say I was using already a retinoid from another brand so I am a bit used to it, however, it is really mild and great for beginners.

Love it!
I read a lot about retinoids and as my skin was sensitive, I was always a bit worried. During the first lockdown a year ago I started using revolution 0.5 with rose hip oil. I liked it and used it every two days, and so decided to give this a go now that my skin was used to that. I love it. Reasonably priced, great texture and absorbs great into the skin. Have had comments on how my skin is glowing which is a major compliment as I’m in my mid 40s. Won’t be without it!
