Description

A gentle but hardworking serum which targets all signs of ageing and textural irregularities.

Utilising a high concentration of two next-gen retinoids (proven to be more effective than standard retinoids) this lightweight, milky-textured serum works hard to defeat the main signs of skin ageing. Lines, wrinkles, loose skin, and pigmentation are all visibly reduced in appearance without the irritation typically associated with retinoid use.

  • Hydroxypinacolone Reinoate - An advanced retinoid which, unlike others, doesn't need to be converted into the active form of Vitamin A in the skin, making it better at treating dark spots and wrinkles than other retinoids.
  • Pure retinol - Delivered in a protective capsule system to ensure that it is gentle on skin whilst achieving visible results.
  • Advanced Retinoid 2% causes enhanced sensitivity to sunlight, always follow with sun protection.

Great first retinoid

First time trying a retinoid, my skin feels firmer and the appearance of fine lines is less in just two weeks. I use this every other day!

Granactive retinod 2%

I just love this product!! I tried so many different brands and this is the first one that didn't break my skin barrier/ dried my skin/ caused breakout. It's perfect for beginners with sensitive, oily and acne prone skin. No smell either. Buy it you won't regret.

One of the best renals I’ve used

Ordinary is one of the best products in the market I feel Doesn’t fail. I’ve used so many different products over the years but I always revert back to the ordinary. As for this retinal. It’s the only one what doesn’t leave me irritated oily and I can see results within six months of using it
