Retinol 1% in Squalane by The Ordinary is a high-strength, water-free solution specifically formulated to address signs of aging, textural irregularities, and uneven skin tone. This serum combines the potent benefits of 1% retinol, a highly effective anti-aging ingredient, with squalane, a natural moisturizing agent derived from olives. The inclusion of squalane not only enhances hydration but also helps to minimize the dryness and irritation commonly associated with retinol use, making the product more tolerable for all skin types. The lightweight, oil-based formula absorbs quickly, delivering retinol's skin-renewing properties deep into the skin to improve overall complexion and texture.
