Accidental scar treatment?
I think this faded 15+ year old scars…?!? It's the only new product I've used, and the only thing that I apply to my neck and upper chest. I've had these 2 small keloid scars forever, and tried a variety of both cheap and expensive topical scar treatments. None worked, although silicon tape seemed t...

Inefficace !!
Je déteste ce produit ! Je précise d'emblée que j'ai la peau grasse faiblement déshydratée. La texture est superbe, le gel est épais mais facile à étirer, il glisse sur la peau sans effort, il n'y a aucun parfum, le tube est hyginéique et protège le produit de l'exposition à la lumière... ...

What a difference
I'm older and wrinkles run in the family. I was using the regular cream and it was ok but decided to switch to gel just to try it out. I use less, it's absorbed quickly and WOW my face looks less wrinkled. Oh yes, this is great stuff!
Not bad, but interesting texture...
This moisturizer is very goopy, has a lube-like texture that surprised me. It's very liquid, kind of thick gel. Definitely for oily/combo skin, isn't hydrating enough for dry skin. It was fine.
I will not be buying this product again
I will not be repurchasing this product because it only came half way full which really upset me.This product also leaves my fingers and face extremely sticky.Personally I really don't think it even moisturizes me. Super dissatisfied with this product.
Not a fan
I have combo/sensitive skin. This stuff will sting quite badly if you have even the slightest skin irritation. Most times I didn't know my skin was irritated until I applied this, and it doesn't soothe at all. On good days it doesn't cause any stinging. It also does a very disappointing job of moisturizing. About 1-2 hours later my face will feel dry as if I put no moisturizer on if I use it as a standalone moisturizer. The only thing I like about it is the lightweight texture and that my skin isn't oily after use. It has some benefit and mild moosturizing but honestly I've used serums and hydrating toners that do a far better job alone than this product.
My go to!
I've been using this for a year and I love it, moisturizes with no residue, mixes well with my other skin care items.. so I love it!

Can you mix this with tretenoin?
- Asked by Valerie
- 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.
