Brilliant Stuff.

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I:ve used this product for almost a year, twice daily, and it's had an amazing effect on my facial and neck lines. I use any thick moisturiser on top and only get irritation if i've been overzealous with the amount used in a single application. Love this stuff !

Good retinol

4 stars out of a maximum of 5

Bought many things from the ordinary and generally find them to be good. Bought the other retinol before and found it a bit weak so gave this a go and have noticed a bit of a difference. Haven't been using for long so can't say what the long term effect is but happy so far!

This is a great introduction to retinol. I have sensitive skin but had no issues with this. And the price point is fantastic.

Great gentle retinoid

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I love this product. I use it on my neck every evening to prevent signs of aging. It’s very gentle, I’ve never had any peeling or redness like I’ve had with other retinoids. Would definitely recommend.

Brilliant

My skin has been looking a little lacklustre lately, as I’ve been trying to spend less on my monthly skincare. This serum has absolutely transformed my skin though, and as no issues dispute my sensitive skin.

Great staple

4 stars out of a maximum of 5

Very hydrating and great for counteracting the drying effects of retinol. I do find the consistency a bit thick and sticky, and despite it sinking in quickly without leaving any real trace I've found myself mainly using this at night. It does work really well on my dehydrated and sensitive skin and I notice that fine lines are less noticeable and pronounced. You don't need much product as it spreads quite easily but it's difficult to dispense just a small amount with the dropper and I find myself wasting a fair bit of it this way, which brings down the rating somewhat for me, especially seeing as it's a little bit pricey for the amount you get. Would still highly recommend and will buy again.
