The Ordinary - AisyahraniGinting review for Granactive Retinoid 5% in Squalane

This was my first time trying retinol and I am glad I went with The Ordinary Retinol 0.5% in Squalane. The consistency feels like a facial oil and is easy to massage onto the skin. With regular usage, it cleared up tiny marks, pores, and fine lines resulting in noticeable clear and smooth skin. My skin visibly looked better, clear, and improved. Expected Initial Side effects of the Retinol were there though, including excessive dryness around the lips and eyes. | Pros | ~ Feels like a Facial Oil ~ Easy to apply and massage ~ Resulted in Improved Skin Health ~ Reduces the occurrence of clogged pores
