Wave goodbye to pigmentation and uneven texture with the Lactic Acid 10% + HA 2% Superficial Peeling Formulation (30ml) from The Ordinary.

Nice exfoliator but the smell is somewhat off-putting
This is a good peeling solution, gentle yet effective. But the smell..! Why nobody mentions it? It is not that strong but it is not pleasant at all. Since there is no fragrance listed in the ingredients I would assume it's the Tasmanian pepperberry extract that gives this serum this strange odor.

Definitely Not Ordinary
I started using this product about 2 weeks ago, I picked it up because the price was so reasonable and I hadn’t tried the brand before. Well, I do not regret it. I have been using it once a day in the evening after cleansing then applying my usual night serum and the results have been amazing. I had a couple of age spots on my cheek and since using this lactic acid they have completely disappeared. The texture of my skin has improved dramatically, almost resurfaced and it’s glowing! I’m 30 so I had a few fine lines on my forehead and those have also gone thanks to this product. I don’t usually write reviews but I cannot recommend this formula enough. It isn’t drying so long as you use a serum or night moisturiser over the top. I certainly will be re-buying from this range and trying more products.

highly recommend
I have really bad acne prone skin (which leads to deep discolouration + acne scars) and even take have medication to control it. I also have quiet sensitive skin and generally seem find I have an adverse reaction to most skin care/make up products so was obviously reluctant to try this, However this is probably one of the best products I've used in a while and its claims to 'diminish acne scars' are really met. I truly think this has been a life saver, it's strong enough to do the job but not too strong that it makes your skin raw or overly sensitive to other things you may want to put on top, such as make up. I have been using it for about a week now and have seen such great results.

Why didn't I start using this sooner
I've been using this serum for a few nights and I already see the difference in my skin. My face is brighter and clearer. This will now be a regular part of my routine <3

Perfect price and rapid results
This product has changed my skin completely, Ive never really had spots, only the occasional breakout. But, I've always struggled with texture and the little bumps on my skin that I just couldn't budge. However, this product as well with the retinoid 2%, they have magically transformed my skin. It has reduced the redness and improved my texture, making my skin soft, glowy and clearer. I use this everyday and I have recommended this to everyone I know.

Happy surprise
I like products from the Ordinary because they are simple and on point, no fuzz at all, just simple formulas with a really friendly price tag. I ordered this product because I like to switch up my acids, and basically just needed a fairly gentle exfoliator between my heavier ones. I never expected anything extra, but boy, was this formula a surprise. My skin was just instantly GLOWING after application. The Pixi Glow tonic is just nothing compared to this serum, which I believe can be used as a daily toner before application of other serums if your skin is okay with it. Will reorder for sure.

Amazing!
I'd heard of The Ordinary before - online and through friends and as it's such a good price, I thought I'd give it a try and mix up my skin care routine. SO glad I did. This lactic acid did feel a bit tingly at first to use, but I use it every night and I've got used to it. The first night I used it I woke up to smooth glowing skin, and my usual trouble areas (dry red skin around my nose) was significantly better. I'm using this every day and my whole face is smooth and clear. I also use it on my neck and décolletage. It literally clears dead skin and imperfections. I'll be buying more and more of this.

Value for money
Been using it every other day and I always find that it's softening on my skin. I don't see an extremely visible improvement the next day but I do notice that my skin isn't as great when I skip out on this in my week.

Great
I have used this nightly for a week now and have seen a lot of improvement both in the texture of my skin and the lightening of acne scars. I also had texture and bumps on my elbows and this completely smoothed out those.
