Love this!
Great product, amazing price! My skin looks better, smoother and doesn’t irritate. I love The Ordinary products. Definitely will repurchase.
Report this reviewGood product
The product feels good on the skin, no irritation on my sensitive skin. I don't use it every day but at least 3 times a week.
Report this reviewNothing special
For this price range its great, bud I don’t see much difference between this acid and some other acid in The Ordinary product line.
Report this reviewToo strong
This was way too strong for my skin which is sensitive. The day after l used it, l realized that my skin was beetroot red. And yes, l had applied sunscreen on a cloudy day. I now mix it every second evening with serum to dilute it and that has done the trick. But l wouldn't recommend something that is this extreme so it's a no from me.
Report this reviewLactic acid love
Excellent product. Didn't cause any irritation (except when I had a scratch on my face that I didn't notice 🙃) . Really helped with my acne without overly drying out my skin (Have dry skin). Used daily and regularly it helps a lot . I hv used it in combination with other products for acne treatment including glycolic acid toner, retinol and only occasional niacinamide+zinc. Regular moisturising is a must, especially with this product .
Report this reviewa good, affordable exfoliant
Lactic acid is a great, gentler exfoliant for more sensitive skin :)
