The Ordinary Retinol 0.5% in Squalane is a highly effective solution for improving visible signs of aging and refining overall skin texture. Formulated with 0.5% pure retinol, this treatment promotes cell turnover and helps reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven tone. The retinol is delivered in a base of squalane, a lightweight, plant-derived oil that hydrates the skin and reduces the irritation commonly associated with retinol use.

This formula is ideal for those who have already used lower concentrations of retinol and are ready to step up to a moderate-strength option. It absorbs easily and works overnight to boost radiance, smooth rough patches, and visibly improve skin clarity. Free from alcohol, water, silicones, and fragrance, this serum is suitable for most skin types, though it's best introduced gradually to avoid sensitivity. With consistent use, the skin appears clearer, smoother, and more youthful.

What's special about The Ordinary Retinol 0.5% in Squalane:

  • Contains pure retinol at a moderate 0.5% strength

  • Helps reduce fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven texture

  • Suspended in squalane to nourish and reduce irritation

  • Lightweight, non-greasy oil formula

  • Free from alcohol, silicones, and fragrance

Other Details:

  • Variant: 30ml

  • Skin Concerns: Fine lines, wrinkles, uneven texture, dullness

  • Active Ingredients: Retinol 0.5%, Squalane

  • Skin Type: Normal, dry, combination (not ideal for very sensitive or acne-prone skin)

  • SPF: Not applicable

How to Use:

  • Apply a small amount to clean, dry skin at night

  • Use after water-based serums and before heavier creams or oils

  • Start with 2–3 nights per week and increase frequency as skin builds tolerance

  • Always use sunscreen the next morning

PRO TIP:

To minimize irritation, sandwich the retinol between two layers of moisturizer or use a hydrating serum beforehand. Avoid layering with exfoliating acids or vitamin C in the same routine.

Amazing product but star down on price
I desperately needed a healing lip balm for my perpetually chapped and scarred lips, and at first was skeptical that this was nothing but a glorified aquaphor, which works well enough for me but I was curious about better treatments. After some weeks of regular use, my lips feel incredible. I am sold. I only wish two things: that it was a smidgen cheaper, and that there was a version with SPF so I could have one to wear out during the day and have it’s magic working all the time.

Fantastic for rosacea, PD, atopic dermatitis, dry skin
I’ve been using this for close to a year and it is amazing for my super sensitive and dry skin. I have perioral dermatitis, atopic dermatitis, and rosacea and live in Minnesota with bitter cold and the heater running over half the year. Cicalfate cream doesn’t flare any of these and it helps reduce redness and completely resolves dry skin. I use about a pea size amount AM and PM,, apply to dry skin, massage in, then mist with the Avene thermal water spray. Although the cream is thick, the slight white cast absorbs within a few minutes. I do not wear foundation so I don’t know how this affects it.it doesn’t burn my eyes and I’m a contact lens wearer. A big tube of cream lasts me the better part of a year.

Great for harsh winters
I was recommended this product by ChatGPT as an effective and safe product that my wife (who is currently nursing) can use. We have been very mindful of certain additives and chemicals in our products and this was able to meet our requirements. Separately in the harsh winter in the northeast, this has been extremely effective in protecting the lips
