Fight signs of ageing with The Ordinary Granactive Retinoid 2% Emulsion, a solution that combines two forms of next-generation Retinoid to help improve the appearance of ageing and acne-prone skin. The two Retinoids used are a Solubilized Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate (which has a multi-fold anti-ageing effect and is more efficient than Retinol), and pure Retinol in a protective capsule system which supports the delivery and efficacy of Solubilized Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate. The solution works to visibly fight signs of ageing without irritating the skin.
We love how the emulsion keeps skin smooth, clear and more refined, by tackling the signs of ageing and breakout-prone skin by promoting cell regeneration. A potent serum which makes a visible difference to the skin over time, it's free from alcohol, nuts, oil, silicone and gluten. It's moderate in strength with minimal irritation, yet still fights the signs of ageing.
The Ordinary is a skincare brand from DECIEM, which is led by simplicity and prides itself on honesty and integrity. Dedicated to providing effective formulations and solutions to everyday skin issues, each product is results-focused and includes only the necessary and most effective ingredients to treat and improve the appearance of your skin. The Ordinary creates "Clinical formulations with integrity".
Apply a few drops of The Ordinary Granactive Retinoid Emulsion to the face in the evening as part of your skincare regimen. Do not use with other retinoid treatments and make sure you use sun protection during the day. This is essential when using retinol products. Apply onto the skin at night after cleansing with the Squalane Cleanser before other serums and your moisturiser. You can follow with Natural Moisturising Factors + HA or Marine Hyaluronics for added hydration. If irritation occurs, stop using immediately and use only as directed on unbroken skin. It's advised to patch test before use.

Great starter retinoid
This was my first time using retinol and this was a great introduction to it. Not crazy strong but still I saw benefits and my skin showed improvement in terms of texture and look and feel. I’ve moved up to their stronger retinol now but this is a great product if you are using retinol for the first time.

Cheap and cheerful
I like the milkiness of this and it sinks into the skin. I think it’s helping with the texture but too soon to say for sure

Switching it up
So I usually use the retinol 0.5 percent and decided to switch it up a bit try this out and it’s a completely different consistency it’s kind of like a milky coloured serum and the retinol I used was kind of like an oil, either way really enjoying it so far.

Great starter retinoid
I've only started to use retinoid and so bought a low dosage product. Only use it every other night while ski gets used to it. The next day my skin looks smoother and more uniform.
