Description
The Ordinary Retinol 0.5% in Squalane is a skincare serum formulated to address signs of aging, such as fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven skin texture. Retinol, a derivative of vitamin A, is the active ingredient in this serum. It works by promoting skin cell turnover, stimulating collagen production, and improving overall skin tone and texture.
Key Ingredient:
- Retinol (0.5%): Retinol is a potent anti-aging ingredient known for its ability to improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation. It works by increasing cell turnover and stimulating collagen production, which helps to reduce the signs of aging and promote a more youthful complexion. Retinol can also help to unclog pores and prevent acne breakouts.
How to Use:
- Cleanse Your Face: Start with a clean face. Use a gentle cleanser suited to your skin type to remove any dirt, oil, or impurities from the skin’s surface. Pat your skin dry with a clean towel.
- Apply the Serum: Dispense a small amount of The Ordinary Retinol 0.5% in Squalane onto your fingertips. Gently massage the serum onto your face and neck using upward motions. Be cautious and avoid the delicate eye area.
- Allow Absorption: Let the serum absorb into your skin for a few minutes before applying any additional skincare products. Retinol serums are typically lightweight and absorb quickly.
- Follow with Moisturizer: After the serum has been absorbed, follow up with your favorite moisturizer to help hydrate and soothe the skin. This step is crucial, especially if you have dry or sensitive skin, as retinol can be drying.
- Sun Protection: Retinol can increase sun sensitivity, so it’s essential to apply sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher during the daytime to protect your skin from UV damage and maintain its health and appearance.
