I wanted to love this...

2 stars out of a maximum of 5

Was really excited to try this as a retinol product that was so affordable but it just didn't do anything for my skin. I found it to be quite greasy and would not repurchase.

not good

3 stars out of a maximum of 5

I can’t make friends with this company, I didn’t like the product, it’s too oily, too aggressive, and, to be honest, I don’t see the result at all

Great but not my favourite

4 stars out of a maximum of 5

I usually use Retinol Fix Booster Extreme however I like a lot of other of the Ordinary products. This one leaves my skin softer and brighter than other products but it's a little harsher and pills easily if you apply too soon after.

Very moisturising

The ordinary retinol in squalane

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

This product is amazing. It provides hydration and instant brightening.  Helps smooth wrinkles and works on fading dark spots from previous breakouts.
