Get a Radiant Complexion with The Ordinary's AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution
Looking for a powerful formula to help revitalise and tone up your complexion? Look no further than The Ordinary's AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution! This scientifically developed formula is specifically designed to deliver a potent blend of alpha hydroxyl acids (glycolic, lactic, tartaric, and citric), as well as beta hydroxyl salicylic acid.
These key ingredients work together to deeply exfoliate the surface layer of your skin, unclog pores, and visibly re-texturise your complexion. And thanks to the pH balancing of the formula, you can be sure that you're getting the most effective treatment possible in just 10 minutes.
But that's not all - this amazing serum also contains plant-derived Tasmanian pepperberry, which offers soothing properties for even the most sensitive skin. Meanwhile, a cross-polymer form of hyaluronic acid deeply rehydrates your skin to help restore its natural moisture balance.
Finally, the solution is topped off with radiance-enhancing black carrot extract to help promote the look of revitalised, glowing skin. And best of all, it's vegan! So if you're looking for a powerful, effective, and ethical way to get the radiant complexion you deserve, The Ordinary's AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution is the perfect choice for you.
I bought this after seeing it everywhere online. I didn’t get the burn that most people talk about and my skin did look brighter after but I don’t believe it’s long term good for my skin

I am in my late 30's/early 40's with combination, fair tone skin and hazel eyes. My hair is blonde, combination with normal texture.
I have an oily, acne prone and sensitive skin. I use this serum maybe every week. Not more than once a week. I use it when my pores get too congested. While immediate results are great, my skin is soft and clean, I always get more acne next day as it is pushing out the sebum from my pores but then they seem to get overclogged. While it pushes them to the surface it does not really clean them out. They end up being more visible the next day and all I can do to keep them clean is to do a facial. Little white and black dots are not the problem but definitely the ones that get clogged from inside creating painful enclosed acne which won't go away for days and I can't do anything about it. I do have a love/hate relationship with all BHA products I've tried but I think this one especially. Also, it is quite harsh on my face every time I use it. I can definitely feel quite intense tingling and trust me I can take a lot pain wise. So really I would only recommend this sparingly and if you have a skin that can take it.

I’m not going to lie I was a bit sceptical and a little scared to try this blood coloured face peel. But I needn't of been this magical bottle really works I used this the first time a few days ago and I could feel it working instantly. My face started to tingle and I knew it was definitely doing something. When I woke up the next day it had brought loads of my impurity’s to the surface. My face definitely felt a lot tighter and cleaner. Im really pleased with how this is working for me. Obviously things have to get worse before they get better but within days of using this product I can definitely see an improvement

I love this stuff, yes it stings when you put it on, but after ten minutes when you wash it off you are left with a brighter complexion. It helps with any acne too, reduces spot size and clears up much quicker than any other products. I’m almost finished y second bottle and once it’s restocked on beauty bay I will definitely be buying another!

Absolutely fab. I have used it 3 times now and can see the results. I have had 2 stubborn spots that scanned over but would not disappear and I have tried everything. This has shifted them and made my skin feel like baby's bottom. Its brightened and evened out my tone too. It does sting but it is bearable. It says leave on for 10 minutes but I left it on for about 45 minutes and it was fine. Shrunk my pores on my nose also.

Is one of my fav cosmetics. I used this weekly and my skin never feel more cleaner and soft, you apply to the face directly from the dropper, massage in and leave for 10 mins before rinsing off. You need to be careful with sun contact with your skin while you using this product. I'm recommend this product also make up look more glow after using peeling solution. I'm also using with it hyaluronic acid 2% also ordinary.

This mask makes my skin feel so soft and makes it look so much brighter and youthful! It gently removes the top layer of your skin (dead skin cells) to create a smoother more hydrated feeling base. You apply it onto DRY skin after washing it and leave it on for 10 minutes then wash off, it’s so gentle you could definitely use it 2/3 times a week there isn’t any burning or tingling when you apply it and you skin doesn’t just fall off instantly it gently exfoliates over a period of about a week. Don’t worry you won’t be able to notice it falling off it just does so like it would naturally the mask just encourages it to begin its shedding cycle! It isn’t that messy and has no nasty chemical smell, I apply it all over like a mask it even says you can apply it to you neck if you want to. After using this a few times my skin felt smoother, softer, looked brighter and looked clearer, it definitely works a treats, 100% recommend, I’m clearly a massive fan of the ordinary products but once you try them you’ll defo see why!

This is a weekly ritual for my hubby and I to use this product. Hubby has oily skin and I have dry/sensitive skin. We have both noticed in a difference in the skin tone and brightness of our skin. Hubby’s skin isn’t as oily as it was. There is a slight tingling when this applied in a thin layer all over the face and neck – I also put it on my décolleté. The ten minutes you have to wait before removing it using warm water and a damp cloth to me is enough -any less and I don’t think the results would be great, any more and you might be very sun sensitive. The mild crepiness of my décolleté has improved. We will be repurchasing this product as we both have noticed a difference in our skins since using it.

I am in my late 40's/early 50's with sensitive, fair tone skin and hazel eyes. My hair is grey, normal with coarse texture.
I have been using this now for 3 weeks and I'm so pleased I followed reviews and made the purchase. The initial application really stung when applied, I found more so around the areas of my face that were a little more congested like my T-zone and around my nose, and I did find my skin was a little blotchy for a few hours after. The 2nd application just some minor tingling, but I really noticed the day after how much better my skin was looking. My skin was so much softer, glowy and just in a much better condition This just works!. This is a definite keeper and now a regular in my skin regime, highly recommend
