I love the squalene addition as it feels gorgeous and moisturising on the face, even though the real retinol benefits come with long term use. I felt that my skin looked better in the morning after only a few uses, with reduced redness and acne. Highly recommend. 

⭐️ HONEST REVIEW ⭐️ I've been using The Ordinary's retinol serum for six months now, and I have to be honest, it works incredibly well. I was afraid to buy it at first because I had heard that these actually induce purities, but fortunately this is not the case, in the beginning it is immediately useful to build it up slowly because retinol already has quite a strong effect and not every type of skin type could stand it. I started once a week for 2 weeks and then I slowly built it up to every night. The advantages of this retinol is that it is super affordable and works just as well as those of, for example, €30, - and there is a small disadvantage, it is a bit greasy, so I would possibly let it soak in for 20 minutes and remove the other leftovers with a cotton pad ✨

Retinol is THE solution for fine lines. I've used this in my skincare routine plus good hydration is key. Because retinol can dry out the skin a bit. Its use must be built up. Irritation may occur. This substance is easy to spread. Wear good SPF for days afterwards!

First of all this product is beautiful I've already noticed visible results as someone who buys skincare in hope in works but never usually does my experience with this has actually been amazing my pigmentation has definitely improved around my under eyes and under my nose which is surprising since i forget to use it regularly but its best to introduce it slowly to your routine another thing i would love to add is once i put it on omg it leaves my face so glowy its so beautiful shame its supposed to be put on at night otherwise it makes ur face look so dewy and not even greasy either way it works and is also really affordable so far i love itttt

Before I started using this product, I had very impure skin. I'd even say acne. I bought this product 5 months ago and have already bought it twice because it is so good. I use this serum after thoroughly washing my skin. The serum moisturizes my skin very much and makes it glow. It dries quickly and is great to combine with other skincare products. I would recommend it to anyone with impure skin.

This retinol is not too heavy for your skin. I have sensitive skin and have built up nicely and was able to use this cream every night without irritation. After prolonged use, I saw a reduction in the fine lines on my forehead and around my eyes and my skin was beautifully plump and shiny. Good luck!

I'm really a fan of this retinol serum. I've already used several Paula's Choice products, but I've tried retinol from other brands first. I had the idea that it did something, but I have to say that it wasn't really life-changing results. When I started using it, I first thought I had made the wrong decision because my skin was going to peel/purge (this appears to be normal). After a week, the purging was over and after 2 weeks the peeling was over and I really have much nicer skin than before. It looks nice and smooth, so I'll never use other retinol again!

Ideal product. However, apply extra Hydra cream. Let the skin get used to the product first, so only use it a few times a week for the first few weeks. Now I use it every night. Very nice product structure, not too greasy and super nice bus. Thanks to the pressure pump, you don't use too much and the product lasts a long time. Worth his money!! 😉

Using this product has certainly added value to my skincare routine. I first started using it once a week in the evening and then I started using it for several nights. I noticed that my face felt firmer and had fewer wrinkles. Now I've also recommended it to my mom and she's it. Using this product has certainly added value to my skincare routine.

Very good product! It is mainly used against wrinkles but I had heard good things about it for pimples. I have been using it for 1 month now and I have fewer pimples. Pleasant texture. Attention, apply to very dry skin and use in the evening because it is photosensitive.

I have already used several retinol serums, so my skin has gotten used to them. At first, however, I saw a lot of dryness and therefore more wrinkles around my eyes... but this serum is mild enough to apply to sensitive skin as well. My skin looks visibly better and is milder than most other serums. This makes it ideal for use in the evening even in the summer months (note: Never use it during the day to prevent sun damage!). Feels good and doesn't irritate my skin and the price is also great!! I've even paid €6, - for it on the Inkey site because there was a sale:) I'm almost 40 years old, judge for yourself!

I've been using this product for 2/3 months now and I'm obsessed! I had a lot of acne scars and very red spots. after using this product, I saw a difference in 2 weeks, the red spots disappeared well and my skin recovered very well, I would really recommend this if you are still looking for a good product that helps repair skin and acne scars.

After being on medication for acne, I found this was one of the most helpful products to prevent breakouts. The retinol isn't irritating on my skin and it's slowly helping to get rid of scars and hyperpigmentation left by my acne! I have recommended it to so many friends.

Inkey list is already my favourite brand for skincare. They’re gentle, soft, and stick to the basics.  Their Retinol is amazing! It’s a great way to introduce retinol into your skincare!  The packaging is simple for starters, minimal but on the bottom it tells you when to apply the product in what order (cleanse, treat ect).  This product is incredibly easy to use and pairs well with the retinol eye cream as well. This is perfect to start your winter skincare, to prepare your glowy skin for summer.  #autumnEssentials  

The best thing I've done to my skin in recent years is to add retinol to my skincare routine, specifically that of The Inkey List. At 23 years old, I already had deep wrinkles on my forehead. I was super insecure about this and did everything I could to make sure my forehead wasn't visible when I walked out the door. I also made sure that my forehead was not clearly visible in photos. I even considered a botox treatment but am really glad I didn't in the end but decided to go for the skincare option! So I decided to create the problem instead of either stopping the problem or going for what I feel like an easier option... and I discovered retinol from The Inkey List and oh god! I am so glad that I started this. Where, as mentioned earlier, I was ashamed of my forehead, it is now very much gone, just like the deep lines on my forehead. Don't you believe me? See photos! I slowly introduced the retinol to my skin by first applying it twice a week to dry skin, followed by a good moisturizing night cream. The next day, I make sure I apply sunscreen properly. As soon as my skin tolerated retinol, I increased the use of the product to three and then four days a week. I'm sharing this review in the hope that I can help other people when it comes to this uncertainty that I've been dealing with for a long time. #SkincareIsTheBestCare

After having tried so many, this is the best product for those like me who have skin with dilated pores, it adapts to any skin, especially combination! Since I started using it, after a week I immediately saw the results and I must say that I was completely satisfied!

A year ago I had an acne outbreak for months that didn't go away with anything, I went to the dermatologist and he recommended this serum to me since then it's an essential part of my skincare and the pimples have disappeared. I don't even know how many bottles I have, it's a 10/10! I highly recommend it

I've already used different types of retinol, but nothing worked well for me until I started using this serum. It really is a great product. My skin is tighter and smoother. I also still have pimples on a regular basis, but this product really helps a lot with this. Definitely recommended!

I recently tried the CeraVe Rétinol Sérum Anti-Marques and I'm really impressed! As someone who suffers from fine lines and post-acne scars, I was looking for a product that would be effective but gentle on my skin. This serum exceeded my expectations. It contains a mild retinol that doesn't irritate my skin, which I really appreciate because I quickly get redness with other retinol products. After a few weeks of use, I noticed that my skin became smoother and the visibility of scars began to decrease. What I also like is that the serum is enriched with ceramides and hyaluronic acid, which hydrate and strengthen my skin well. The texture is light and absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy feeling. I use it at night after cleansing and notice that my skin feels fresh and hydrated the next morning. It's important to always use sunscreen while using retinol, and that's what I do. All in all, I am very satisfied with this product. It's affordable, effective, and gentle enough for my sensitive skin. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a retinol serum that helps reduce fine lines and scars without irritation.

Very excited about this serum.. Personally, I like this one better than Paula's choice. Do build up when you start using retinol for the first time. I let the serum soak in and then apply moisturizer over it. Because otherwise I'll get some peeling on the skin. But a nice serum at a great price.

Really a super nice product! I've never used retinol before and noticed with this stuff that red spots that formed after pimples around my period went away much faster. Normally, these spots stay in place for a few weeks, but with this stuff, it disappeared after a week. I then use it every other night. When I started using this, I did get some pimples at first, but I read that's normal and it's a build up that comes up. After that, my skin calmed down again. It also didn't give me dry or irritated skin, but I don't have such sensitive skin either.

Great product! I started adding retinol to my skincare routine with this product and, by slowly building up, I didn't experience any purging/irritation or anything like that. After 2 months of seeing a clear difference, my skin is much smoother and really glowing, it looks much healthier. It also helps a bit against hyperpigmentation, but I haven't seen a huge difference yet, I think you'll need longer. I now use it every night and when it runs out, I switch to a higher percentage of retinol, because it contains only 0.1%. But ideal to start with!

The serum is a thick oily substance. I myself have fairly oily skin with frequent pimples. Since using this serum, the pimples have really diminished, I also have the idea that my skin is more even and looks much healthier. It does take a while to see results, and breakouts of breakouts can actually get worse at first. I think this serum is pricey, but I am very happy with the results. Furthermore, the serum absorbs quickly, does not leave a greasy layer and you need very little of it so that you can use a bottle for a long time.

I ordered this product a few weeks ago. I have dry skin with textured bumps. I had first used a sample of the purple retinol cream, which dried out my skin. (I have retinol drying out my skin more often). So I went to try this one. This is more of a thick oily substance. He moves in quickly and certainly does his job. It does not leave the skin greasy and provides extra hydration. I would definitely recommend this one to someone with dry or sensitive skin. Plus that it also contains vitamin c! It is well worth the price. You only use this 3 times a week and you can do it for at least six months.

Super fine serum for my skin. Small pimples disappear immediately and beginning lines do not worsen. Can't do without this serum.
