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 2% in Squalane (30ml), a high-strength serum softening the look of fine lines and wrinkles.
Starring retinoid active technology, the Granactive Retinoid Serum 2% 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!
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.
Squalane, C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate, Bisabolol, Dimethyl Isosorbide, Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate, Solanum Lycopersicum (Tomato) Fruit Extract, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil.

No difference yet
I have only been using this for a couple of weeks and haven’t seen a difference yet. But it feels nice on the skin and doesn’t seem to irritate.Â

Greasy. Not good
The Ordinary make a better retinoid serum (granactive emulsion) this squalene version has a terrible texture. Honestly I bought this by mistake thinking it was the other one but used it up anyway. Won't be repurchasing.

Not the best Retinoid serum by The Ordinary
I bought this by mistake as I thought it was the Granactive Retinoid EMULSION which is a better product in my opinion. This squalene version is oily and doesn't fit well with the rest of my skincare routine. I don't notice any improvement when using this one compared to the Emulsion version by The Ordinary which also felt much nicer to use.

Gentle retinol
Great for beginner users of retinol. Made my skin feel hydrated and soft and never gave me peeling or redness.Â

Love this
Love this, but prefer the retinol without the squalene. I would be happy to use either for the rest of my life

Second bottle
I like this retinol serum as it is hydrating as well. Only the smell is a minus.

Nice
This is my second bottle. I like the oily texture during cold winter months. I think it is not a miracle worker but I think for this price it is nice product that at least leaves my skin looking more even.Â

Cost effective
I was anxious after I put this on for the first time as Its really oily when first applied but it soaked in to my skin and didn't leave that awful feeling on your face were you can feel spots mutating and irritated I'm pleasantly surprised 🙃
