THE ORDINARY - Retinal 0.2% Emulsion High-Strength Retinoid Nighttime Treatment - 15ML

Transform your nighttime skincare routine with the powerful Retinal 0.2% Emulsion by The Ordinary. Designed for experienced retinoid users, this advanced high-strength retinaldehyde formula helps visibly firm skin, smooth texture, and reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and dark spots for a brighter, more even complexion.

This lightweight serum-emulsion combines stabilized retinaldehyde with soothing synthetic oat analogues to deliver effective anti-aging results while helping minimize dryness and discomfort commonly associated with strong retinoids.

How to Use

For best results in Pakistan’s weather conditions:

1. Use only at night on clean, completely dry skin.
2. Apply a pea-sized amount evenly across the face after water-based serums.
3. Start with 1–2 nights per week, especially during hot or humid weather, then gradually increase if tolerated.
4. Follow with a gentle moisturizer to help maintain hydration.
5. Always apply broad-spectrum sunscreen during daytime, as retinoids can increase sun sensitivity.
6. Avoid using with direct acids, benzoyl peroxide, or other strong retinoids in the same routine.

Important: This formula is recommended for experienced retinoid users due to its high retinal strength. Patch testing is advised before regular use.
