Recommended for experienced users of retinoids, the Ordinary’s Retinal 0.2% Emulsion is a potent serum that works over time to target visible signs of ageing.
Suitable for all skin types, the yellow-tinted formula works to diminish the appearance of fine lines, dark spots and uneven tone, while visibly enhancing the skin’s radiance and smoothness. The treatment utilises oat, an ingredient renowned for its soothing properties, to help minimise feelings of sensitivity and dryness post-application. The multi-purpose serum also helps to improve visible elasticity and soften the look of crow’s feet.

Skincare staple!
Love this product , comes at the fraction of the price of other higher end products and the results are insane. This has become a staple in my skincare routine. I have very dry sensitive skin and this hasn’t irritated the skin at all. Love the ordinary and will continue to support their company as the products are so affordable and effective! Skin felt firmer within weeks!

The best for the price!
I’m On my second bottle and use 2-3 times a week. It really firms up my skin and I will always use it. Being a higher strength it’s took a few years to work my way up to this but I’m a big believer it’s made my face look 10 yrs younger. Add to your night routine you won’t regret it!

Amazing
I hardly review skin products as how can we really tell if they work? However, you can see the wonders of retinal almost immediately. Smoother skin and fine lines reduced. I buy this every month and have bought it for my 80 year old mum too, who has also noticed the impact. Be warned though, use a pillow cover because it staines sheets yellow, bit it's worth it.

Love this!
This product is so good, I’ve used retinols in the past that really make my skin dry and flaky but this does not damage the skin barrier at all and it’s such a good price. The yellow colour doesn’t bother me as it’s used before bed and I really notice a difference with my skin when I use it, would definitely recommend!

Good!
Only rating it a 4 at the moment as I have only started using this but heard good things if you are consistent with it! Don’t be put off by the yellow liquid it blends nicely after applying and it’s gives a lovely glow! Apply a barrier cream before and after this product and wear SPF the following day. No reaction to this product just dry skin but that’s normal keep applying a barrier cream and good moisturiser.

The Ordinary Retinal
This retinal is really easy and smooth to apply. I have relatively sensitive skin and this caused me no irritation whatsoever; I started using it twice a week and now use it every other night. My skin texture seems to have improved already… but I know this is a long game!
