"If you're a fan of squalane and you've had squalane before and you know you like the benefits that squalane gives and you've got an impaired skin barrier, then I would start up with Granactive Retinoid 2% in Squalane. That doesn't have any retinol in it, it just has a granactive retinoid in it. Because the granactive retinoids are more close to retinoic acid, it's much more likely that you will get a better result with the granactive range than you would with the retinol range."

"The granactive retinoids in squalane, I am not surprised these are going. They were greasy, you didn't have a great application. I think there's just better products out there. Why would you buy The Ordinary Granactive Retinoid 2% in Squalane, which is greasy and difficult to sink in, when you can get the exact same strength at the exact same price in a rich creamy emulsion that's just going to be a dream to apply? Not worth it."
