The Ordinary Retinol Collection for Ageing Skin

Retinol has gained celebrity status in the skincare world over the past few years, with many people now considering it a staple in their routine. Retinol is especially popular as an anti-ageing ingredient, as it encourages collagen production and skin cell rejuvenation. The Ordinary Retinol Collection offers retinol in different levels of concentration, including newbies who need to start off gently and seasoned retinol users wanting to amp up their dosage. 


Our Recommend The Ordinary Retinol Skincare Routine

Learning the incredible benefits of retinol might make you want to lather up ASAP, but it’s important to understand how to incorporate it properly. This high potency ingredient can cause irritation and sun sensitivity on all complexions if used incorrectly, but if you proceed with patience and care this can be avoided! First of all, The Ordinary Retinol should only be used in the evening as it increases the likelihood of sun damage. Retinol can be applied to dry skin after using a hydrating cleanser like The Ordinary Squalane Cleanser. Retinol can be drying, so it’s important to follow up with a hydrating serum or moisturiser such as The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid, The Ordinary Natural Moisturising Factors + HA, or a natural facial oil. It’s important to avoid exfoliating the skin before using retinol, as it leaves skin too vulnerable. Retinol should never be used alongside other active ingredients, as it may react badly and damage the skin. It’s also a great idea to incorporate SPF into your daily skincare routine if you haven’t already.

So far so good

I have just bought this, but it has not irritated my skin or caused redness. Not keen on the oily feel but it is pretty nourishing which is good.
