It's very good for evening out the complexion and also for preventing wrinkles. I used to use a lower percentage of retinol. I liked it quite a bit and I'm very satisfied.

Customer reviews
I love the Ordinary's products... if you know what you need you can buy it at a reasonable price and get great results.
I really like this product, it didn’t irritate my skin or anything. 
This Granactive Retinoid 2% Emulsion is incredible. I've noticed a significant reduction in fine lines and my skin texture is much smoother. It's gentle enough for nightly use without any irritation, unlike other retinoids I've tried. The emulsion formula feels lightweight and absorbs beautifully. Highly recommend this for anyone serious about anti-aging!
I wouldn't trade this product for anything. I had huge pores when I began using this and they are literally gone now. You can see results after only a couple weeks of use, but with continued use it really smoothes skin and evens out texture. I have very sensitive skin and this product doesn't cause any redness or harsh side effects.
Site says to store in a cool place. package says to refrigerate. ? also, weird smell.
I got this because I was told it help with aging skin, after reading all the great reviews I was like okay let's try it. Its been almost a month and my face is breaking out horribly and so many blackheads! I've never had a problem with acne even as a teen. I'm no longer using the product and just trying to get my regular blemish free face back. I do not recommend this!
I fear my skin has legitimately become addicted to this product. I've struggled with rough and textured skin as well as hormonal acne my whole life, but when I'm using this product it smoothes everything out so intensely it's crazy. I recently ran out and my skin is back to being rough with lots of small pimples.
I've seen a significant difference in my skin's texture after using this for a few weeks. Make sure to rinse off thoroughly in the AM. Would recommend!
One of the best effective retinoids I’ve ever used. I love how it stays on the skin and how easily you can layer on top of it. I have also seen differences in just a few weeks of using it. My skin is smoother and less wrinkled.
