Really good! Excellent price too
Brilliant.Caused me no irritation using it on my forehead and number 11 lines at night. Feels moisturising, which I wasn't expecting. Noticed lines less visible and its only been 3 times a week at night for 2 months.Also used on a very stubborn dark patche of rough skin on my outter ankle and it has almost gone after 15 years of trying so many things!

For body- the best!
Great product to use on the body. I would be worried to use on my face as it's oily and I could easily smear into my eyes, and I prefer on my face a different, slower release delivery system. On arms, and legs it's wonderful and the price is unbeatable!I recommend it!

God retinol for men
Great retinol at a great price for men and women. Compared to men’s products is much cheaper and feels good on skin. Easy to use droplets. And good skin coverage on evenings before bed.

Slowly helping with my stretch marks
I’ve been using this mainly on my stretch marks, applying a small amount consistently. After some time, I’ve noticed they seem to be slowly fading and the skin looks a little smoother. The squalane base also feels moisturising and spreads easily. It is a strong retinol, so I started gradually rather than using it every day.

I'm saying no to this product
I'm a huge fan of The Ordinary products. After trying it for the first time a few months back, I have quite a few because my skin tolerates all skincare really well, as I am a prolific tester of many different brands. I generally like this particular brand; however, this product is very oily and doesn't absorb, leaving the face greasy for hours.I can even see the imprint on my pillow the next day. For this reason, it's not for me, especially since I wear fake tan, and oil-based products are a no-go because they strip tan.But I love Ordinary products— this isn't for me but I don't doubt it's an exceptional product as all are ❤️

Lovely for skin
I use this once in a while especially when I have flare ups and the next day you can see how smooth the texture of my skin looks and feels. I need to buy some more .

Me encanta
Lo estoy usando oara el cabello junto con minoxidil y wow ✨ excelente producto, lo uso también en granitos y me los cura en pocos días, si lo recomiendo, pero tengan cuidado, tengo 33 años, poco a poco fui subiendo de % de retinol y nosé si sea la edad, pero ya no sentía que me estaba haciendo mucho la tretinoina de 0.05. Me gusta usar éste sérum 1 vez a la semana en el cuero cabelludo, quiero usarlo todos los días, pero poco a poco iré subiendo la cantidad de aplicaciones 👍🏻
