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.
