Want something that just works? Forget the faff and the fuss, the Alpha Arbutin 2% + HA (30ml) offers a lightweight gel-like texture bursting with a brightening blend of ingredients.
Thanks to a concentrated cocktail of alpha arbutin and hyaluronic acid, this high-performing hero works to minimise signs of past, present and future pigmentation.

Love This Product
OMG I love this product. It is absolutely amazing. I apply and pat in a few drops to my face after washing and I saw and felt an instant difference in my skin. It was more plump, felt super soft and had a more even texture which was so unbelievable. It has Hyaluronic Acid in it which is a added bonus for me.

Best
Can visibly see results in only 4 to 5 days! Holy grail product for me, already ordered another backup.

very gentle
I've only used it three times, and the whitening effect is uncertain. It is less irritating than Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1%.

Not for Hyperpigmentation
Did essentially nothing to reduce hyperpigmentation, very disappointed. Otherwise good for general skin texture.

Product shows nice results with continued use over time
I posted a review on this product, and although I was not overly impressed by the results of the product, I had continued to use it, and I am happy to say that the product had in fact proved itself with time. My dark marks have faded quite a bit and my complexion is bright.

Useless
Barely made any difference to my hyperpigmentation around my mouth which is disappointing as I've always been a fan of The Ordinary products. Wouldn't bother wasting my money on this again.

Holy grail
I had red signs of acne for years. This product, along with Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% + HA and Lactic Acid 10% + HA was the holy grail for my face. I bought it again and again and again.

Uhmm
My first bottle of this product is almost complete, and while I did notice a slight brightening of my complexion, I will not repurchase this product as the results were not that fantastic. I had mild pigmentation due to acne and this product did not cause those to fade away, my darker pigmentation spots are also still very visible. I was not impressed with this product, however, I am OBSESSED with the Niacinamide and Retinol 0,2% by the ordinary! well done!! xx
