The Ordinary Advanced Granactive Retinoid 2% Emulsion 30ml
Product Description
What we say
Actives, retinol, retinoids, concentration, 2%, terms that can be quite intimidating. We've got you! The Ordinary landed in the beauty world last year with a simple approach and ground-breaking formulas. Next-generation retinoid active technologies have been shown to achieve better reduction in signs of ageing than retinol all without irritation. The Advanced Retinoid 2% inparticular can to be applied to the face as part of your regular skincare regime. PLUS, it is Alcohol-free, oil-free, silicone-free, nut-free, vegan, gluten-free, soy-free and cruelty-free.
The Ordinary Advanced Retinoid 2% - a stable emulsion of next-generation forms of retinoid. This formulation combines two forms of next-generation retinoid actives in a combined concentration of 2% by weight. These two actives are: - Solubilized Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate is a highly-advanced form of retinoid which is, in fact, a non-prescription ester of all-trans direct retinoic acid that offers a multi-fold better effect against signs of ageing than retinol, retinyl palmitate and nearly all other forms of non-prescription retinoid; - A sustained-delivery form of pure retinol in a protective capsule system which supports both the delivery and the effect of Solubilized Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate. Both forms of retinoid used avoid the irritation associated with retinoid (including retinol) use while delivering better visible results against signs of ageing. Alcohol-free, nut-free, vegan, gluten-free, soy-free.

Excellent gentle yet effective retinol
Love this gentle retinol. I've been using this for years and with product I noticed a decrease in fine lines and overall skin texture. I love that it's so gentle, non irritating and doesn't break me out. I highly recommend this product.

Best value and quick result
This is my favorite product from ordinary series. Quick absorption, smooth lines, moisturizing serum / lotion.
The result is apparent after one week of application. I use it as a serum after toner and before moisturizer at night. So reasonable.

The texture of this product on application is utterly divine. No irritation noted and now just looking forward to seeing results. Would 100% recommend if you aren't a fan of oily formulations.

Hi there, can I use this to treat new stretch marks? thanks!
Hi,
Thanks for reaching out to us.
Personally, I wouldn't recommend using this on your stretch marks as you won't gain much benefit, however using Rose Hip Oil/Rose Hip Seed Oil on stretchmarks (new and old) has been proven to reduce and improve the appearance of them.
Take a look at The Ordinary 100% Organic Cold-Pressed Rose Hip Seed Oil 30ml, which is designed for use on the face and if you like the sound of it, please contact us on beautyexperts@feelunique.com so we can help you with finding some rose hip seed oil for use on the body.
I hope this helps!

hello, i have very deep lines under my eye even though i'm only 24!!! can i use this under eye to treat these lines?
Hi,
The Ordinary Advanced Granactive Retinoid 2% Emulsion 30ml shoud never be used around the eye area as it contains retinoids.
You should never put retinoids/ retinol near the eyes as this is a concentrated form of vitamin c. Vitamin c is a natural and potent exfoliant and the skin around your eyes is very delicate and thin.
Another otpion is NUXE Contour Des Yeux Prodigieux Anti-Fatigue Moisturizing Eye Cream, it hydrates, revives and fights against signs of ageing by protecting the skin from oxidative stress caused by daily aggression.
Thanks Katie, Beauty Expert.

Hi what’s the difference between the ordinary retinol 1% in squalane and the granactive retinoid is the retinoid means retinol ? Thanks
Hi,
Retinol contains a lower concentration than retinoid, if you have sensitive skin, I would recommend a retinoid as it can be less irritating.
If you'd like to know the difference between the ordinary retinol 1% in squalane and the granactive retinoid, please could you email us at beautyexperts@feelunique.com with the full name of the granactive retinoid as there are quite a few granactive retinoid's from the Ordinary.

Does this help with facial scarring e.g. acne scars?
Hi,
The Ordinary Advanced Granactive Retinoid 2% Emulsion is really recommended for anti aging. However, it has additional benefits, when spread on the skin, retinoids can unclog pores, allowing other medicated creams and gels to work better. They also reduce acne outbreaks by preventing dead cells from clogging pores. Retinoid helps with cell renewal which can reduce the visibility of scars.
When using a retinoid, we always recommend applying in the evening, and introduce gradually 3 times a week. Always use an SPF during the day.
The Ordinary do offer lots of products to help with acne scars, please contact us on Beautyexperts@feelunique.com for the details of these and how to use them!
Thanks, Lydia - Beauty Expert
