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 5% + 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 5% + 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.

Gentle exfoliator for a sensitive, dry skin.
I would consider it a good starting out product for gentle exfoliation. If you have dry, sensitive, reactive skin (as I do), this product did help in achieving a mild exfoliation. After 6 weeks of use, it did not cause any irritation and helped my skin in maintaining a healthier balance.

Love this!!!!!
I have oily, acne prone skin and this so far has been a game changer! I’ve been trying to many different products over the past year and this has really calmed my skin. I’ve have only been using it for a couple of weeks and I really hope that my skin just keeps getting better with this.

YAAaaassssSSS
I am such an Ordinary fan, and this is one of my favourite products. I am not very good with beauty product knowledge, which is maybe why I like it so much, but it's great nonetheless. I have sensitive skin so the 5% lactic acid is good for my skin type; I also don't see redness after using this product. I do recommend using sun lotion the day after this - but then again you should always be applying sunscreen! The only con about this product is that even if I use it 2-3 times during the week I don't feel as though my skin has been thoroughly exfoliated. So I would probably recommend using an exfoliating scrub along side this product. I.e. use this 1-2 times per week and every week or every two weeks exfoliate with a scrub.

Wonderful but not amaazing
I've been using this product for over a month now pros: - lovely mild exfoliant, helps keep my skin congestion at bay - skin has gotten softer and somewhat smoother - skins brightness has improved - only need to use a little, so the product lasts well cons: - post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation has not drastically improved - expected better skin-brightening effects not sure whether I would repurchase or perhaps look for a glycolic acid night serum instead.

Didn't do much
This product didn't do much for my skin. It gave me a little glow but it's not what I expected. I might have to try the 10% one and see if it helps more with my scars.
