The Ordinary has firmly cemented itself as a leader in science-backed skin care. Taking the guesswork out of building a regime, it ditches unnecessary, filler ingredients for familiar, hard-working actives that deliver promising results. Enter: the Lactic Acid 10% + HA 2% Superficial Peeling Formulation (30ml), a lightweight serum that offers mild exfoliation to help even the appearance of skin tone and texture.
Wave goodbye to pigmentation and uneven texture with the Lactic Acid 10% + HA 2% Superficial Peeling Formulation (30ml) from The Ordinary.
Offering gentle yet effective exfoliation with 10% lactic acid (an alpha hydroxy acid), this lightweight serum reduces pigmentation, minimises fine lines and wrinkles and improves overall skin texture. It's also bursting with Tasmanian pepperberry to reduce signs of inflammation and soothe any redness sometimes caused by exfoliation. Oh, and there's more... it's enhanced with nourishing hyaluronic acid to not only lock in moisture, but retain it too.

It did wonders
I started using this after being 6 months on azaleic acid cream treatment from my dermatologist. Azaleic acid treatment worked slowly, but after using it with lactic acid it immensely improved my skin in just one week. I use it everyday in my nighttime routine. My skin was already accustomed of acids so I didn't feel any tingling.

The first product that has worked!
I’ve been having breakouts on my skin as well as small white bumps on my forehead and this is the first product that has truly worked. I’m currently only on day 3, my breakout has cleared and I’m just waiting for the redness of the site of the breakout to go down. Amazing.

トーンアップ
使用後はいつもピリピリします。合わないのかなと思ったりしますが お肌がトーンアップし褒められることが多くなりました。 Always tingling after use. I wonder if it doesn’t fit, my skin has been toned up and praised more often.

Exfoliates, hydrated and brightens!
This is by far the best serum out of The Ordinary range! This serum hydrates your skin and will have it looking really dewy & smooth the next morning. It does have a slight tingle to it when you apply it but it subsides after a couple of minutes. It really helped get rid of my dark spots and uneven skin.

no more clogged pores
My skin loves this lactic acid! It has completely cleared my clogged pores, evened out my skintone, gotten rid of any texture I had on my jawline and brightened me overall. LOVE!

Best exfoliator
I have been using this for around 10 days and I use it on alternative days with Vitamin C on the night and my skin has become soft and shiny I have few bumps on my chin they are also gone.There were clogged pores on the side of my nose that are also looking a lot better. Much better than high-end brands that do not even work.

Lovely
I love this product a lot. I prefer the AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution over it. But it is also nice and affordable.

Cult Favourite
This is a cult favorite that does what it says on the tin but it is not a fast-acting product and takes regular and long term usage. If you're looking for deeper and quicker scar fading solutions then you still need to consider a deep chemical peel but this is a great product to incorporate into your regular daily routine to avoid and fade scars.

Awful
Previous version was okay, one of my favourite exfoliating products. But new one is terrible! Very watery, run out from hands while I try to apply it on my face. And it's don't work, no any effects! Why does Deciem change good products? Very disappointed...
