The Ordinary Retinol
Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- I really like retinol(the ordinary) and it is the only product that truly works for me.
- For the past 2-3 months I have been using the ordinary retinol and salicylic acid. I switch between the two every other night, using retinol on my on salicylic acid days.
Cons
- retinol the ordinary (twice a week) leave it for 35 minutes
- you're using The Ordinary retinol AND the BoJ eye serum with retinol on the same nights — that's two retinol sources and could be why your skin gets irritated. pick one or use the eye serum on non-retinol nights.
- I use the ordinary retinol and eucerin hyaluron filler cream at night, spf in the morning.
- The Ordinary retinol (month 7 though was very inconsistent around months 3-4)
- Like pairing the ordinary retinol and then the eye serum with retinal seems a little redundant to me, since retinal is just a more potent, fast acting version of retinol
