Omg, so helpful - it's been very confusing navigating which of the Ordinary's retinoid products is the strongest and provides the most benefits. Other channels claim that the granactive 2 and 5% are stronger than the 1% retinol in squalene, so this just cleared things up!

Hey, I have been using the ordinary Granactive Retinoid 2% Emulsion for about 6 months now and I started having breakouts again. Should I go to the Granactive Retinoid 5% in Squalane? I have EXTREMELY oily skin and get absolutely no irritation from my current retinoid

Which one is better for oily to combination skin with dark pigmentations and spots for a beginner?

Thank u 👌

Really appreciate how you explained the difference between squalane and granactive!

Dr. Nipun Kapur, a skincare consultant posted a video where she suggested shifting from 0.5% retinol to Granactive 2%. Would that make any sense? Should a 0.5% retinol in squalene user switch to 1% retinol or 5% granactive one? I’m confused!

Absolutely right, I've also watched that video, it's so confusing, but this video kinda makes some sense, I m currently on granactive 2% and looking to move to retinol 0.5, since granactive retinoid didn't give me that results..

I believe here he said that 0.2 retinol =2% granactive retinoid and 0.5 retinol = 5% granactive. This means that 1%retinol is the highest in concentration.

I've been using 0.1% retinol with bakuchiol for almost a year now. I have no break outs or whatsover. What should i use next, the 0.2% or 0.5% retinol?

Thank you so much. I m using granactive retinol 2% for 2 yrs now n i changed to Retinol 0.5 in Squalene Serum for just 2 day and i got acne on my chin area and ichy skin. Stopped using it. So i should use 0.2 for start?

Yes start back down at 0.2 🙏

I jumped straight to the 1% and have no side effects, redness or iritation. Is this normal?

Could you use The Ordinary niacinamide serum when using retinol?

After using Retinol 0.5% ,what should i use? Granactive 2% or Retinol in sualane 1% ?

@Athen107

7 күн бұрын

0.5 retinol = granctive 5% so dr says retinol 1 is the most strong

The ordinary sales person told me 1% is misleading because it is really only 0.3% , as in europe the regulations for over the counter is 0.3% maximum

@Drsomjiskin

3 ай бұрын

Concentrations are generally misleading as it’s dependent on the volume of the product

What can I do if I accidentally bought 1%, I never use the ingredients before Can I put one drop in my cream for a start still Or I cannot use it at all

I watch ur video and repeat 3x and im still confused… really?

Hi Dr! I'm new here, this video is amazing. A friend gave me The Ordinary RetinAl 0.2% Emulsion, I have never used retinoids, can I apply it once a week? What is the recommendation in this case? It would be very helpful if you could answer 🤍
