Granactive Retinoid 2% Emulsion

The Ordinary Granactive Retinoid 2% Emulsion is an advanced, next-generation retinoid treatment that offers the benefits of traditional retinol without the common side effects of irritation, redness, or dryness. Ideal for those new to retinoids or with sensitive skin, this serum visibly improves signs of aging, uneven texture, and dullness while maintaining optimal skin comfort.

This lightweight, creamy emulsion contains a highly active complex known as Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate (HPR)—a non-prescription retinoid ester that delivers comparable results to pure retinoic acid, but with significantly reduced irritation. The formula also includes supportive technologies that enhance skin clarity and texture over time.

Unlike traditional retinol, Granactive Retinoid does not require conversion within the skin, allowing for faster results with less risk of sensitivity. It is also free from alcohol, silicones, and oils, making it ideal for all skin types.

How to Use:

• Apply a small amount to the face in the evening, after water-based serums and before heavier creams.
• Use sunscreen daily when using retinoids, as skin may become more sensitive to sunlight.
• Do not use with other retinoid treatments in the same routine.
