Cheaper retinol products please

[Queenofthedrivensnow]

I want to buy something that isn't scary expensive but they works please

The ordinary has a good range.

The Ordinary granactive retinoid. I'm using it now and it is transforming my skin!

Try The Ordinary. I've only bern using their retinoid in squalene for a nit but reviews are v good. Only sbout £5 too. Warning though it gets addictive all the little glass bottles they have for various things...I think I've spent about £50 since discovering them!

Is the ordinary in boots?

Haha laughing at all the x posts..TO it is then as number one suggestion!

Only online, asos or Sephora have it. Think these a shop in covent garden too. Delivery isn't free unless you hit the 25£ mark but if you ask for a regime you might spend that much.

It's everywhere: Victoria Health, Look Fantastic, Cult Beauty, ASOS. Don't pay Sephora delivery costs.

But also, BEWARE THE PURGE!!!

The purge?

The purge! I have never been prone to spots and had about 5 in the second week and bumpy skin. Worth sticking out though.

I have the granactve retinoid in emulsion,its lovely,skin looks loads better,its £8 plus postage

Fenwick sell TO in store.

Those who have been using it regularly, how long till you noticed effects? Ive only been using the granactive retinol in squalene for ageing and my 11s for a week or so, using nicinamide and salycilic acid for pores and spots, plus hyluronic acid and their moisturiser for a few days. No break outs as such yet but just wondering when I'll see results. (Impatient!)

About 3 weeks in for me. I think I read somewhere that it can take up to 3 months to see noticeable improvement depending on your skin.

Definitely The Ordinary. Victoria Health delivery is very efficient.
