It's ok

I find this feeling quite oily on my skin and doesn't seem to absorb that well on my skin unlike my The Inkey List one that seems to work better for me. Not raving about this and may find a different retinol.

Can rave about the disciple products I've bought enough. Suffered with acne for over 20 years had a flare up recently and finding as I'm getting older that it takes longer to clear and heal. Thought I'd try a few disciple products and results are fab. Wish I could post my before and after pictures to show the results

Remarkable

Three people have commented on how good my skin looks in the last month. I have never had good skin so can only put it down to this product. Pores much reduced in appearance, skin feels soft and smooth on waking after night time use.

I don't often write reviews but I always read them when searching for skincare products. I've long suffered from oily skin, large pores and more recently some fine lines around my mouth. I've tried so many products over the years that promise to minimise pores or reduce wrinkles but I've never really seen results. I've been using this for about 5 months and WOW - there is a noticable difference to my skin. It is soooo much smoother and my pores have definitely reduced in size, and the lines around my mouth have actually disappeared. A good retinol product and spf is all you need!

Fabulous!

As always, The Ordinary products are fantastic. I used to use Retinoid emulsion and recently switched to the one in Squalane. It is amazing and I guess since my skin's so dry, it just fits in beautifully. My skin has changed so much for the better!
