1The Ordinary Granactive Retinoid 2% in Squalane
The Ordinary has quickly gained a cult following for selling effective ingredients at cheap as chips prices. This is a brand that prides itself on their consumer honesty, something they proved when they upgraded all their retinols to a new formula called 'Granactive Retinoid'. Compared to their old formula, Granactive Retinoid gives better results against signs of ageing and leaves zero irritation on the skin.

3Drunk Elephant A-Passioni Retinol Cream
DRUNK ELEPHANT
Arguably the most hyped skincare launch of 2018, Drunk Elephant's latest offering, A-Passioni Retinol Cream is the wholly grail for reactive skins. Like all their products, you won't find any of the 'suspicious 6', (SLS, fragrance, dyes, essential oils, chemical screens, drying alcohols, silicones and SLS) in here. Instead their 1% retinol has been blended with soothing botanical extracts, passionfruit, kale, apricot and cherry, so it won't irritate the most sensitive skins. It's also packed full or potent peptides and fatty acids, which help speed up surface renewal, boost collagen and plump up ageing complexions. Tick, tick, tick.

Take a few on your next holiday and you won't have to worry about wrinkles, or the weight of your suitcase.
