The Ordinary's AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution is a potent formula that acts as a ten-minute exfoliating facial, helping to brighten, smooth and refine the appearance of skin.
The advanced exfoliant features a blend of 30% alpha hydroxyl acids (glycolic, lactic, tartaric and citric), as well as 2% beta hydroxyl salicylic acid. Helping to slough away dead skin cells, the powerhouse formula minimises the look of dullness, pore congestion and textural irregularities. Hyaluronic acid, vitamin B5, and Tasmanian pepperberry promote rich antioxidant benefits, while nourishing the skin with a soothing, comfortable finish. Topped off with radiance-enhancing black carrot extract, the illuminating mask promotes the look of revitalised, glowing skin.
Suitable for most skin types but not recommended for very sensitive or compromised skin. Always patch test before use.

How to use The Ordinary Peeling Solution
This powerful peel is intended for experienced users of acid exfoliation, no more than once or twice per week in the evening. To apply, begin by thoroughly cleansing the skin and patting dry. Sweep a thin layer of the solution across the face and neck with your fingers, avoiding sensitive or broken skin. Leave on for no more than ten minutes, then rinse with lukewarm water. A tingling sensation is normal, but rinse off if discomfort or irritation occurs. Always follow with a broad-spectrum SPF the following morning.
What does The Ordinary Peeling Solution do?
The Peeling Solution is a chemical exfoliant powered by AHAs/BHAs. It helps to visibly brighten the complexion, reducing the appearance of pigmentation and redness, alongside decongesting the skin of impurities for a smoother, more unified-looking texture.

Garishly red
God forbid you get this on your clothes, bedding, anything. It’s bright, it’s red, it stains. Honestly it’s quite daunting putting it on your face. I didn’t like it very much, I used it every now and then and didn’t see much difference in skin texture. I also didn’t like the smell it’s strong, a bit too chemically, stings when you apply it.

Peeling solution
This peeling solution is very strong so only stick to the time limits on the bottle. It makes my skin feel refreshed after using. But only use it once a week or so

Great price
I use this for my skin care routine 2-3 times a week. It does sting my face everytime for around 20 seconds when applying. Only use for 10 mins then wash face well after and cleanse tone and moisturise. Make sure to use spf when using these products. Face is fresh and always get comments how glowy skin is since using this product
