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.

My go to product
Will always come back to this. I always get compliments when I use it. If it is your first time using it- go slow and only use it for a few minutes and increase time the more you use it. It’s my Sunday night re set routine.

Great Product
I use this weekly as an alternative to a physical exfoliator and have seen great results. There’s a slight discomfort when first applying the product but this disappears quickly and it’s perfectly possible to leave the product on skin for up to 10 mins. A little goes a long way and I’ve found it better to use the product sparingly and regularly for long lasting results.

A gentle peel for beginners.
This won't deliver dramatic effects but it is great for making the skin feel really smooth and for making it look clear and bright. It doesn't dry out the skin like some peels can and it is a great price. I use it a couple of times a week and my skin doesn't break out with it.

I like.
I’ve been using this for a while now and I really rate it. I use this at night and when I wake up my skin is always glowing. I do find it’s slightly uncomfortable at first but it’s worth it.

Great Peel
Love this peeling solution. It can tingle slightly when applied, but that only lasts a couple of seconds. Works well, easy to apply and remove.

100% honest review
I’m genuinely surprised at how well this has worked. I’ve tried everything from salicylic to glycolic acid to no prevail other than a damaged skin barrier and just as many bumps. I had sent realises how intense this was and my skin was irritated from the get go. I pushed through, cleansed then moisturised. The next day, the sebum had been pulled to the surface of my red spots! Pretty much watch it work within 12 hours which is the closest thing to a skin care miracle product that I’ve seen. Just buy it
