## Overview

The Ordinary Retinal 0.2% Emulsion is a potent, fast-acting retinoid serum formulated to visibly tighten skin, reduce wrinkles, and fade dark spots. Featuring retinaldehyde, a superior form of vitamin A, it offers advanced anti-ageing benefits for experienced users. This lightweight, vegan, and cruelty-free serum supports a radiant, even complexion with a clean, alcohol- and silicone-free formula, perfect for a professional’s evening skincare routine.

## Description

The retinal 0.2% emulsion is based on a highly effective retinoid formula that quickly tightens and smooths the skin while significantly reducing the appearance of dark spots. It refines the complexion, evens out uneven skin tone and promotes radiance for a more radiant, even skin. With a high concentration of 0.2% retinal, retinal 0.2% emulsion can significantly improve skin firmness and improve the appearance of lines and wrinkles, including crow's feet, wrinkles and forehead wrinkles. The formula with serum texture is suitable for all skin types and is recommended for experienced users of retinoids. If you have no experience with retinoids, we recommend that you first try the Granactive Retinoid 2% Emulsion or Retinol 0.2% in Squalane and then move on to higher concentrations once your skin has built up a tolerance. For more tips on using retinoids, please refer to our retinoid guide. Retinal (retinaldehyde) is a well-studied retinoid that, thanks to a conversion step closer to the bioactive form of vitamin A, allows a more efficient supply of the most direct form of vitamin A molecules than retinol.
