Key Ingredients & What They Do
- Retinol: The gold standard of anti-ageing — a vitamin a derivative clinically proven to accelerate cell turnover, smooth fine lines, refine pores, and improve skin texture.
How to Use
- After toner and serum, take a generous amount — roughly the size of a large coin.
- Warm between fingertips for 2–3 seconds to soften the formula.
- Press into the face starting from the centre, working outward and upward.
- Use gentle upward massage strokes on cheeks and forehead.
- Include the neck and décolletage — these age visibly and are often neglected.
- In the AM, follow with SPF. In the PM, apply as the final skincare step.
Who Is This For?
All skin types. Particularly transformative for dry, dehydrated, combination, and sensitised skin. Also effective for oily skin — dehydrated oily skin overproduces sebum as compensation, and a lightweight moisturiser corrects this over time.
Expert Tips for Best Results
- Apply to slightly damp skin right after toner for significantly enhanced absorption.
- In heavy air conditioning, apply a second layer immediately over the first while still damp.
- Apply more generously at night — skin repair peaks between 11pm–4am.
- Pair The Ordinary The No-Brainer Set - Natural Moisturizing Factors + HA + Granactive Retinol * 2% Emulsion + ''Buffet'' -3x 30ml with a targeted serum underneath for a complete treatment routine.
Frequently Asked Questions
Should I use moisturiser if my skin is oily?
Absolutely — and this is one of skincare's most important myths to debunk. Oily skin is not the same as hydrated skin. When skin lacks water, it overproduces oil to compensate. A lightweight moisturiser corrects this, reducing shine and breakouts over time.
How long until I see results?
Improved hydration and comfort are immediate — most notice softer skin from the very first use. Significant improvements in texture, brightness, and tone take 4–6 weeks of consistent daily use.
Can I use the same moisturiser morning and night?
Yes — The Ordinary The No-Brainer Set - Natural Moisturizing Factors + HA + Granactive Retinol * 2% Emulsion + ''Buffet'' -3x 30ml is suitable for both AM and PM. In the morning, always follow with SPF. At night, apply a slightly thicker layer for amplified overnight repair.
