I use this every day now as my exfoliation step and it has really helped to get my skin smoother and keeps it clean. I do have to use a BHA occasionally when my pored get too congested but this is a great everyday exfoliant. It has a watery texture and you only need maybe 2-3 drops for the whole face. Be careful around any open wounds and cuts such as open acne etc. as it is not meant to go on broken skin and will sting a bit on those places. I will probably move on to the higher percentage next but if you're starting with chemical exfoliation and have sensitive skin like me this is the way to go.

I am in my mid 20's with acne/problem, fair tone skin and green eyes. My hair is dark brown, normal with normal texture.
Have been using this since February and I really like it. I have been using it alongside other products in the ordinary range to combat acne and uneven skin tone and it has really helped. Before using the ordinary products I had regular breakouts and didn’t have the confidence to leave the house without foundation, now I feel much enter about it. I have almost finished the bottle and think I might purchase the 10% as my skin seems to have built a tolerance.

One of the best ways to combat signs of aging is with effective exfoliation, and this can be achieved with a face peel. Few products aid exfoliation like The Ordinary Lactic Acid 5% + HA 2% Superficial Peeling Formulation 30ml, which is fortified with vitamins and minerals. You can rely on it to gently remove dead skin cells from the surface of the skin, contributing to a youthful and vibrant appearance. If you have had bad experiences with skin peels which leave your skin feeling agitated, Lactic Acid 5% + HA 2% Superficial Peeling Formulation 30ml from The Ordinary - a brand recognized for its clinical technologies - could be the answer. It is PH balanced and made with a Tasmanian Pepperberry derivative which has anti-inflammatory properties. Thanks to its ability to smooth the complexion, wrinkles and fine lines can be addressed with this innovative treatment. It should be applied once a day. Formulas which include lactic acid should not be used for skin which is peeling or sensitive - always read the directions provided in the product package.
