This product is what I use on my “off days” when I do not use prescription Tretinoin. It is almost as good as using the prescription but has the added benefit of the oil however, it does not clog...

This gave me the worst skin ever! I have previously used the granactive retinol emulsion, and liked the results. However this oil based formula gave me the the most disgusting cystic acne breakout...

Unfortunately, this product really didn't agree with my skin, I used it for under a month and it caused pretty bad papular dermatitis to breakout on my forehead. I don't have particularly sensitive...

So I jumped on the Ordinary bandwagon and just went crazy. By far, this brand is one of the best skincare finds of the century. Most of the products worked well for me and considering the price, I...

I have both the 2% and 5% but I can say that I like the 5% more as it feels more effective. My face looks brighter the next morning and feels softer and clearer. It’s hydrating and works great...

I have been using for 3 months, so I can only comment on the shirt term results rather that after 6months of consistent use. I started this in March and went straight in with 2 nights on and one...

Love. Pure and simple. My skin is thin, sensitive, prone to redness, breakouts and dry patches. Although it reacts quickly to products, it can sometimes be difficult to make it stay in a good...

I alternate this with the discontinued Retinol 1%. I love them both! The Retinol 1% is a bit strong and can cause irritation, dry & flakiness, while this one is a bit greasy. Makes sense, as it is...

Im new to actives because I have very dry, sensitive and reactive skin but this did not irritate my skin at all. I know that retinoids are a long term thing so I don't see any significant results...
