The Ordinary has firmly cemented itself as a leader in science-backed skin care. Taking the guesswork out of building a regime, it ditches unnecessary, filler ingredients for familiar, hard-working actives that deliver promising results. And next to bless your complexion is the Granactive Retinoid Serum 5% in Squalane (30ml), a high-strength serum softening the look of fine lines and wrinkles.
Starring retinoid active technology, the Granactive Retinoid Serum 5% in Squalane (30ml) is a water-free solution working to exfoliate and renew the look of skin.
Keen to improve the appearance of your skin with a retinoid but wary of the potential side effects like dryness and redness? This hardworking serum could be just what you need; achieving faster-acting results than traditional retinol but keeping the look of the skin barrier in check. Housed in a light-as-air formula that refreshes and restores, it improves the appearance of pigmentation, fine lines and fatigue... no wonder it's at the top of our wishlist!
Squalane, C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate, Bisabolol, Dimethyl Isosorbide, Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate, Solanum Lycopersicum (Tomato) Fruit Extract, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil.
For the latest information, it is recommended to review the ingredient list printed on the packaging of the product prior to usage or consumption.
Apply a small amount to the face in the evening, after water serums but before heavier treatments. Do not use with other retinoid treatments. Avoid unprotected sun exposure and store in a cool, dry place.
Transparency lies at the heart of our philosophy which is why we have partnered with tech-platform – Provenance – to cut through the industry ‘noise’ and equip you with key facts that matter. A 'proof point' with a green tick means a third party has verified the accuracy of the statement whereas no green tick means that there isn't independent confirmation (yet!), but that the brand has still supplied substantiating evidence (which you can view yourself).

Great
One of the best retinoids I ever tried and definitely the best squalane-based one. Surprisingly, it's also the cheapest out of all the oil-based retinoid products I tried, so 5 stars for that. It's really good for dry skin, but also behaves pretty well on my combination-oily skin, doesn't cause breakouts and is great for protecting or restoring the barrier.

Little irritation
Seems to be working well so far. I've noticed some dryness and my skin flaking in the areas km prone to dryness, however my skin hasn't been dry and sore like the usual beginning stages of using retinol. Too soon to tell if there's any impact on my fine lines or skin texture.

Would buy again
A big fan of the Ordinary and it's price point but for some reason, didn't expect much from this. However, I was plesantly suprised at the refreshed look of my skin after all a week's use.

Good
I think it is good starting point for person who never used retinoids before. Not too strong, skin looks and feels smoother already after few applications

A must..
I've been using this almost 3years now. It is works on my asian skin. It delays my wrinkles. I use it at night as the texture a bit oily. Highly recommended.

YES
Love this product! Three weeks of use and already love how it’s made my skin feel. Next morning it’s noticeably plumper and tighter. You have to keep it in the fridge. But highly recommend.

Not irritating to my skin
I have sensitive mature skin and this product does not irritate me. However, after 2 months of use I’m not sure I see much of a difference on my forehead wrinkles

Brilliant for the price
If you want an entry level retinoid without the price tag, go for the Ordinary. This is low irritation. I’ve seen a huge improvement in my skin tone and fine lines. It takes a while to sink in but can’t fault it for the price.
