THE ORDINARY The Sustainable Edit Retinol 0.5% in Squalane

Description: This water-free solution contains 0.2% Retinol, a well-studied ingredient that aims to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and textural irregularities. While Retinol has been studied extensively, it can be irritating to the skin for first-time users and requires a build up of skin tolerance. For this reason, it is recommended using Granactive Retinoid 2% or Granactive Retinoid 5% for first-time users. 

Product Range:

• Granactive Retinoid 2% Emulsion (Moderate Strength, No Irritation)
• Granactive Retinoid 2% in Squalane (Moderate Strength, No Irritation)
• Granactive Retinoid 5% in Squalane (High Strength, No to Low Irritation)
• Retinol 0.2% in Squalane (Low Strength, Moderate Irritation)
• Retinol 0.5% in Squalane (Moderate Strength, High Irritation)
• Retinol 1% in Squalane (High Strength, Very High Irritation)

How to Use: Apply a small amount to face in the PM as part of your skincare regimen, after water serums but before heavier treatments. Do not use with other retinoid treatments. Avoid unprotected solar exposure. Store in a cool, dry place. Caution: Retinoids can make the skin more sensitive to UV radiation. Sun protection is particularly important when using retinoids. This product must not be used in conjunction with other retinoids including retinol or retinoic acid. This product is not a treatment for acne. Acne-prone skin may experience a temporary increase in acne during the first few weeks of using any form of retinoid, including those used in this formulation. Note: When pregnant or breastfeeding, it is recommended to avoid any skincare products containing retinoids such as formulations with Granactive Retinoid or Retinol.
