The Ordinary Mandelic Acid 10% + HA AHA & Hyaluronic Acid Face Peeling

I applied it three times and everything was fine. But when I reapplied it, my entire face started burning... even though I never have allergies to anything. And now my skin is red and feels like it's on fire.

This product is terrible. It burns my face and leaves it covered in patches. I absolutely do not recommend it to anyone!

I purchased this product for the first time based on many positive reviews. It is quite thick, which may not be suitable for everyone. You only need to apply a small amount, as it may cause irritation for some people. I use it in the evening, and in the morning my skin looks wonderful - it smooths out wrinkles on my face and reduces breakouts.

During the initial two weeks of use, there were no issues. However, after a month of using it, I started experiencing a strong burning sensation upon application, and my entire face became covered in red patches.

I have been using this product for 2-3 weeks, but so far, it hasn't had any effect. In fact, it causes my skin to peel if applied frequently. There hasn't been a decrease in redness either, and it doesn't work as a peeling treatment. Maybe it just hasn't been enough time yet.

I purchased an emulsion with azelaic acid, which is supposed to be good for reducing inflammation. However, I believe it would be sufficient to find a product based on this ingredient alone to address inflammation. For the price, I could buy several items from Ukrainian manufacturers.

I have already ordered it for the second time. The peeling worked perfectly, in the morning my skin feels like after salon procedures. After a month of use, my breakouts disappeared, my complexion evened out, and acne spots disappeared. I highly recommend it!

The peeling caused an allergic reaction from the second use (previously, I had never had any allergies to anything).

I really liked this peeling. I have oily skin prone to breakouts. I used it 2-3 times a week. It evened out my skin tone and helped reduce closed comedones. I apply it at night and after about an hour, I moisturize with a moisturizer. I noticed the effect after 5-6 uses.

I am very dissatisfied! This is my first peeling product, and I wish it would finish quickly, but the usage is minimal! It feels like I've smeared oil all over my face ((I have combination skin, not very oily. I use the peeling twice a week and a moisturizing cream from Ordinary. The feeling is sticky and unpleasant, the oil is running all over my face, and my face is as greasy as a pancake. I haven't noticed any improvements. No even skin tone as they claim, no reduction in breakouts.

The exfoliant is mediocre. I have combination skin that is prone to breakouts. The results were almost non-existent, except for overly dried out skin. It also felt extremely sticky throughout the evening, which was unpleasant. I had to blot it with a tissue after 20 minutes. I won't be purchasing it again.

I used to take lactic acid before, but this one has a more pleasant smell. It doesn't sting and it improves the appearance of the skin. I don't have acne, but sometimes I get breakouts, so it worked great for me. If you need a stronger acid, I recommend trying the toner from The Ordinary.

I had breakouts (black spots and closed comedones) on my forehead and chin. I used this product every night for a week after ordering it. The results were incredible. I had tried applying acids before, but this product is simply unbelievable. I highly recommend it.

I have combination skin and acne, so I decided to try this product based on the reviews. The texture is pleasant, oily, and has no smell. The first time I applied it on clean facial skin, I washed it off after 30 minutes. My skin reacted well, there was no redness or other unpleasant sensations. The next day, I decided not to wash off the acid but to do as suggested in the comments: leave it on for 30 minutes, then simply apply my facial cream and go to sleep. I was pleasantly surprised in the morning. I really liked the effect, my skin was soft, moisturized, and the acne visibly lightened. I also noticed that my skin seemed to glow, even under foundation. I think I will apply it overnight 2-3 more times, and then once a week. Therefore, I definitely recommend this product. P.S. Thank you to Make Up for the fast delivery. I am attaching a photo of the product, as well as the cream that I use and that is also worth considering.

This is an amazing exfoliant, it has made my skin perfect! My skin tone has become more even, my pores have become smaller, and my breakouts have disappeared. I applied it every night before bed for two weeks. I am very pleased with the results.

I didn't see any results from it. My skin felt sticky, as if it was dirty. Maybe I should use fewer drops, I don't know. I won't buy it again.

The product may be good, but for me, it seems a bit weak. Yes, it does polish the skin a little, but in the areas where my skin is already in good condition (like my forehead), it doesn't really have much effect. And for more problematic areas, it doesn't seem to work very well.

Well, it's okay. I have sensitive, mature combination skin. So my introduction to acids started with almond. Because I read a lot that it gives a slow effect but is gentle on sensitive skin.

I have been using the product for 5 days - I decided to do a one-week course and then use it once or twice a week. I am disappointed. The only plus of the product is that it evens out the tone. But the product is very greasy, small oil bumps started appearing on my forehead and chin. I didn't notice any cleansing or pore tightening effects at all. I would rate the product a solid 3, not more.

The exfoliant is good and is more suitable for those who have not yet used aggressive exfoliants. It does not burn compared to the red one. However, I am very satisfied with the results.

I really liked it. Before, I used to get professional peels only in winter from a cosmetologist, but now circumstances have changed for everyone, and I really liked it. From the very first time, the results are very visible. Let's see what happens next. Oh, and it doesn't burn either.

I stumbled upon this peeling product on the website completely by chance. After reading the reviews, I decided to order it. My facial skin is hypersensitive and allergic, to the point of face swelling. Yesterday, I mixed a few drops with my night cream and the results in the morning were shocking! This peeling is simply amazing: my face is lighter and the blemishes are significantly dried out - something I didn't even expect! I definitely made the right choice.

At first, I liked the product as it seemed to make my under-skin comedones disappear. However, in less than a week of use, I started getting red pimples on my forehead, which I have never seen on my skin before. Considering that I haven't used any other new products, it is quite likely that they appeared after using this peel. I will wait for the rash to go away and then repeat the experiment with the peel. I will update my review later.

I managed to order it at a promotional price of 188 UAH (EU), and I am satisfied with it. I felt the effect from the first use. This product dries out breakouts in the form of pimples and dissolves a significant portion of black spots. I deduct one star for its oily texture and the same feeling on the skin after application.

Amazing exfoliator. Your skin feels well-taken care of after using it.

Great exfoliator, my skin is sensitive and combination type. I initially left it on for 6-7 minutes - just a slight tingling sensation, no redness. I use it every 4-5 days alternating with a red acid peel. I also apply a serum with lactic acid and always follow up with a Korean moisturizing cream SPF50. My problem with black spots and enlarged pores is disappearing right before my eyes, my skin now has a smooth and perfect tone, it's well moisturized. This product is a gem, thank you ;)

The results are evident, it greatly helps with closed comedones, it's my favorite.

I wouldn't say that this is a proper exfoliator, it's more like a facial oil. The first time I applied it, I didn't notice any significant effect, but my skin did feel more moisturized. I will continue using it.

I haven't been able to say anything yet, I'm just trying it out.

This is my first chemical peel. I really liked the result, even though I didn't use it every day. It evens out the skin tone, dries out imperfections, and makes the skin smooth. In the morning, I apply a moisturizing mask and SPF. The product is amazing. It is suitable for dry and normal skin.

I really enjoyed using this exfoliating product! My skin is now glowing.

This is a very good exfoliant, but it seems more like a night serum. It is oily, but after about 15 minutes, it absorbs nicely. In the morning, the skin looks radiant.

I wouldn't call it a peel, rather a serum. After using it, my skin feels moisturized and soft. It seems to slightly dry out irritations, but doesn't affect acne scars. If you're looking for something gentle with acids, then this is a good option.

I really liked the exfoliator. I apply it at night without rinsing. The condition of my skin has improved. In the morning, it peels a little, but it's not a big deal.

The consistency of this product is very oily. The term "peeling" is only in its name. It is not recommended to apply this product every day as it clogs pores and causes breakouts (((

I didn't notice any significant impact, the serum with niacinamide works much more noticeably, it's my forever favorite, but I don't see any pros or cons from this serum. Maybe the acid in it is too weak for my skin and I need something stronger.

After considering the reviews and taking into account my skin type (not dry, more towards combination), I am very satisfied with the result! I highly recommend it! I use it every day, at night. The results are already noticeable from the first use:))

I highly recommend it! This product fulfills all of its functions and is even suitable for very sensitive skin!

The exfoliating product is great. I have problematic skin. Since autumn 2021, I have been using strong acids like retinol, "bloody" peeling, and azelaic acid. For the summer, I decided to choose something less aggressive. And I couldn't remember. After the peeling, my skin feels soft and moisturized, it tightens pores and evens out the tone.

I have been using The Ordinary Lactic Acid 5% + HA 2% for the second week now and I am absolutely thrilled! I had read many reviews about The Ordinary and had planned to test out their products. The only thing I regret is not trying it earlier.

I started seeing results within a few days of using it. My skin became smoother, my complexion evened out, and my breakouts significantly reduced. I also noticed a healthy glow and my skin started looking more well-groomed.

I apply the peel at night and combine it with retinol a few times a week (I apply the serum 30-60 minutes after the peel). In the morning, I use The Ordinary Lactic Acid 5% + HA 2% followed by a daytime moisturizer with SPF.

I haven't had such well-taken care of skin in a long time.

This product is great, I would say it's an "all-season" solution. However, I mainly use it in the summer, while in winter I can afford stronger acids. The molecule of lactic acid is large, which makes it work very gently. The manufacturer claims that it is suitable for all skin types, even the most sensitive, with rosacea and couperose.

This peeling moisturizes, smoothes, fights inflammation, and removes dead skin cells from my sensitive-combination skin. I apply it at night without rinsing, every other day or two.

My favorite exfoliator. It really helps with post-acne. My skin has improved. I bought it on sale.

The exfoliator is effective and does its job well, as I noticed an improvement in the evenness of my skin tone after just one use. However, it is incredibly drying and makes my skin uncomfortably dry. It's impossible to use any cosmetics after using it. My skin has been flaking for several days after using it. I applied a few drops in the evening after thoroughly cleansing my face and washed it off in the morning. Can anyone advise me on how to get rid of this unpleasant flaking?

The only positive aspect is that it doesn't make my skin greasy. The acid is very gentle in its action. I hardly even feel it. For the first 5 minutes, there is only a slight warming sensation on the skin, it doesn't even sting. It doesn't make my skin greasy, but it also doesn't dry it out. I haven't noticed any special effects. Maybe it's because my pores are smoothed out thanks to my favorite toner?... This peel didn't remove any pimples, redness, or other hidden imperfections. Maybe it will have an effect when combined with other acids? As a standalone product, I didn't understand this acid peel. But I also can't advise against using this product. In the end, everything is individual.

Ideal product for uneven skin. Reduces redness, evens out skin tone and texture. Doesn't dry out the skin, exfoliates dead cells. I apply the AHA toner from Alina first, followed by the niacinamide serum, wait for about two minutes, and then apply this. Every night. It works wonders on my skin. Very satisfied. Will definitely repurchase.

Favorite peeling

I recently purchased this amazing peeling product and I must say, I am absolutely thrilled with the results. The texture is smooth and gentle on the skin, making it a pleasure to use. The formula is effective yet gentle, leaving my skin feeling incredibly soft and refreshed.

The peeling has a pleasant scent that is not overpowering, which adds to the overall enjoyable experience. I appreciate how it effectively removes dead skin cells and unclogs my pores, leaving my complexion brighter and more radiant.

What I love most about this peeling is its natural ingredients. It contains nourishing components that provide hydration and promote skin renewal. After using it for a few weeks, I noticed a visible improvement in the texture and tone of my skin.

I also want to mention the packaging, which is not only aesthetically pleasing but also practical. The tube design allows for easy and hygienic dispensing, ensuring that the product remains fresh and uncontaminated.

Overall, I highly recommend this peeling to anyone looking for a reliable and effective skincare product. It delivers

This is an excellent product. After using it, there are almost no stains left, my pores have narrowed, and overall, the condition of my skin has significantly improved.

I was recommended to try The Ordinary cosmetics, and I don't regret buying them. I have normal skin that sometimes breaks out, gets dry and oily in different areas, like many others.

After using it for the first time, my skin became softer and looked healthier in the morning. The breakouts that were just starting to appear on my face calmed down a bit. I thought the acid would be more aggressive and was afraid of getting burned, but it is gentle. It stings a little, but not too much.

I read different reviews and how people use it. The method that suits me best is as follows: I cleanse my skin first, wait for my face to dry, then apply the acid for 10-15 minutes, rinse it off, and then apply serums and creams as desired. I do this 1-3 times a week depending on the condition of my skin. I apply it in the evening to avoid sun exposure afterwards.

I am satisfied! I am 100% satisfied. It doesn't cost that much and can last for several months because acne disappears faster, and my cheeks shine like they have a shimmer. Finally, I have healthy skin!

This acid was simply an experiment for me. I used to use scrubs and couldn't understand why the effect was either very weak or simply nonexistent. I blamed it on not being able to find the right product for my skin. And it turned out to be simple - scrubs simply don't suit my skin.
And after this purchase, I was amazed! In just a month, my sensitive, combination, and prone to breakouts skin came to life! The pores narrowed, the texture evened out (and for my acne scars, it's the best result among everything I've tried), and the breakouts decreased. Moreover, if, for example, I apply the product in the evening, then in the morning, the pimples are not as pink and noticeable, and they heal much faster. It's all thanks to this acid that I discovered acids in general. I often use makeup, but this is the first review because it's truly an amazing thing! Plus, you only need a minimum amount of the product, I've been using it almost every day for two months, and there's still half a bottle left.

Girls, this is simply an amazing product for combination skin prone to breakouts! After just one application, my skin was 80% cleaner and the texture became smoother in the morning. The serum made my skin firm, nourished, moisturized, and it also had a healthy glow. I highly recommend it for both daily use and occasional use when you need to bring your skin back in order.

This is the only thing that has removed all my small closed comedones on my chin, so it deserves the highest rating. Surprisingly, it also moisturizes so well.
