Ingredients of Retinol 1% in Squalane:
Retinol is an impressive, multitasking active that can reduce visible signs of ageing, improve acne and help prevent inflamed blemishes. However, it may cause irritation if introduced abruptly; The Ordinary recommends starting off by applying low concentration retinoids such as Granactive Retnoid slowly before gradually increasing frequency of application.
This water- and silicone-free formula contains squalane to promote healthier-looking skin while helping combat fine lines and photo damage. In addition, a highly stable form of pure retinol is included to help reduce wrinkles, brighten hyperpigmentation, promote natural cell turnover and encourage natural cell turnover.
This serum is appropriate for normal to oily skin types. Exfoliants or vitamin C products should not be used alongside this retinol product during its adaptation phase as these could interfere with its actions. For optimal results, apply this serum every other or third night depending on your skin sensitivity.
How to Use The Ordinary Serum:-
Retinoids are multitasking actives that can address early signs of ageing, hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone while simultaneously reducing blemishes and promoting cell turnover. Furthermore, they stimulate collagen and elastin production for firmer-looking skin.
The Ordinary Retinol 1% in Squalane Serum is a water-free oil-squalane formulation containing 1% stable retinol designed to fight visible signs of ageing while minimising blemishes and dark spots. Squalane adds moisture that boosts surface-level hydration for maximum effectiveness.
Retinoids can sometimes irritate skin, so it is best to gradually introduce them into your skincare regimen and be consistent in using them. Start off slowly using it once or twice weekly before increasing usage gradually as your skin adapts. Be sure to apply broad spectrum sun protection while using this product since retinoids make your skin more vulnerable to UV rays. If any dryness, redness, or peeling occurs reduce the frequency of application or switch to a lower concentration formula.
Facts About The Ordinary Serums:-
Retinoids are multitasking actives that can address early signs of aging, hyperpigmentation (age spots and post-acne marks), and inflamed blemishes. While retinoids can be beneficial in their effects, they can also be irritating when first applied at higher concentrations or for extended use.
This oil-free serum features Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate (HPR), a stable form of vitamin A with less risk of irritation than traditional forms of retinol. HPR works to stimulate cell turnover, erase fine lines and dynamic wrinkles while improving tone and texture while supporting surface-level hydration and prevent dryness associated with using retinol. Squalane further adds surface-level hydration while helping avoid dryness associated with using retinols.
Once cleansing and toning have been completed, apply a small amount to the face in the evening as part of your skincare regime, after allowing it to absorb. Make sure other treatments or oils have had time to fully penetrate before applying them directly over the top, preferably without direct eye contact or direct sun exposure as retinoids may make skin more susceptible to UV rays; once opened store in the refrigerator to ensure product stability.
