The Ordinary Granactive Retinoid 5% in Squalane 30ml

€19.48

The Ordinary Granactive Retinoid 5% in Squalane is a rejuvenating, revitalising anti-ageing serum that minimises the appearance of fine lines and hyperpigmentation.

By boosting the production of collagen, the light 5% granactive retinoid serum reduces the look of fine lines and wrinkles, while moisturising squalane delivers a plump, supple and youthful complexion.

Active granactive retinoid is a system of hydroxypinacolone retinoate, which reduces the appearance of ageing more effectively than almost all non-prescription retinoids. It’s also incredibly gentle on skin compared to most retinoids, so you’re less likely to suffer from redness or irritation.

Why We Love It

The Ordinary Granactive Retinoid 5% in Squalane is a higher strength formula of their 2% version; and, is a great option if use the lower strength formula, and you’re looking for more noticeable results.

Using anti-ageing can sometimes leave your hands to feel greasy and in general, can be quite messy. So, what’s great about this serum is that it comes with a pipette so you can apply the formula with no-fuss.

How To Use It

Using the pipette, apply a small amount to the face during the evening, after water serums but before heavy treatments. Don’t use this with other retinoid treatments. Use SPF protection the morning after use.

The Ordinary Granactive Retinoid 5% in Squalane 30ml is rated 4.9 out of 5 by 9.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from The best This is my all time favourite to keep my skin lines free. I have been using it for years on and off always drifting off to more expensive brands but coming back. I started to add a few drops of patchouli essential oil in and I enjoy the experience of applying this daily even more. I currently follow it with a very expensive serum/cream but in the past I used rose hip oil (which was a bit drying). My skin looks great atm.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from The Ordinary Granactive 5% Retinol The purchase was extremely easy and delivery better than advertised. Items came packaged well with no damage. At the time was the cheapest I could find on the market and multi-buy made even more so. Product works very well with little skin irritation initially unlike some retinols. Overall pleasant experience recommending the product and the supplier.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Brilliant product I've moved up from the 2% to the 5% without any adverse reaction. This product leaves my skin feeling lovely and soft and really helps my acne. Its a bit annoying that it has to be kept refrigerated, but if that is what is needed to preserve the optimum product that's fair enough as i'd rather that than they compromise the the product
