- Official Answer By The Ordinary - Brand EngageUnfortunately, it is difficult for us to comment on the pairing of our products with those of other brands. We recommend consulting with your doctor/dermatologist, gradually incorporating one new product into your regimen at a time, and applying test patches first to see what works best for your skin.Was this answer helpful to you

Usage guidelines not very good!
So I just found out here that this needs to be refrigerated. Also just noticed on the label that it's only good for 3 months after opening!

Amazing but messy
Please change the packaging because I love this product but it always leaks!
I would buy this again!
A good produce!
I'm so in love
I have used almost every brand of retinol that you can find at Ulta and this one is hands down the best! It leaves such a nice finish too.
Who doesn't love a good retinol..
I've used this sparingly but the following mornings after I use it my skin looks glowy.
Will definitely be repurchasing
In the short time I have used this product it has not broken me out (extremely sensitive skin) and I have seen improvement in my skin tone and elasticity! Would definitely recommend!
