THE ORDINARY Retinal 0.2% Emulsion - NEW
Category: origins serum
Introducing the New Ordinary Retinal 0.2% Emulsion – the most potent retinoid formula by The Ordinary, featuring stabilized retinaldehyde for advanced age support, perfect for nighttime application.
This high-strength retinoid formula is designed to quickly firm and smooth the skin, while visibly reducing the appearance of dark spots, refining skin texture, and targeting uneven tone to enhance luminosity for a brighter, more even complexion. With a potent 0.2% concentration of retinal, this emulsion significantly improves skin firmness and reduces the look of lines and wrinkles, including crow’s feet, frown lines, and forehead wrinkles.
Suitable for all skin types, the serum-textured formula is recommended for individuals experienced with retinoids. Beginners are advised to start with the Granactive Retinoid 2% Emulsion or the Retinol 0.2% in Squalane and gradually advance to higher strengths as their skin becomes more tolerant.
Retinal, also known as retinaldehyde, is a well-researched retinoid that offers more effective delivery of vitamin A molecules in their purest form compared to retinol, as it is only one conversion step away from the bioactive form of vitamin A. The inclusion of synthetic oat analogues in the formula, particularly avenanthramide, a beneficial component found in oats, helps alleviate skin discomfort and dryness commonly associated with retinoid use.
The vibrant yellow color of the emulsion is a result of the high level of retinal, a naturally yellow substance. While it may leave a slight tint on the skin and light-colored fabrics, this can be minimized by allowing the product to fully absorb and the skin to dry before coming into contact with fabrics. Any residual color can be washed off the skin with water and removed from fabrics by laundering according to the care instructions.
This emulsion targets signs of aging, crow's feet, textural irregularities, and uneven skin tone, leaving your skin looking rejuvenated and youthful.
