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.

Love it
Such a great price, if you do this before makeup it goes on so much nicer. Great at preventing acne too, but your skin has to get used to it first!

Good
For me it’s difficult to use it regularly because I can’t combine it with some other components of my skin care routine, this is why it’s difficult to see if it works long term, but after every use I my skin feels softer and cleaner Don’t think I’ll buy it again. I have had this bottle for half a year and I’m not even on the middle of it

Great at home skin care
I’ve used this product for a number of years now. Really helps with light scarring and pigmentation. It’s a no-peel peeling solution. A week after use, I find my skin tone is more even and glowing. There is a slight sting when you first apply to the skin - especially if you have any broken skin (it does advise you not to apply onto broken skin). It’s affordable skin care to add into your routine with noticeable results.

Bargain
Another cult fave. It looks scary on the face because it’s bright red but it’s a great acid mask. Does the job well. Might not be good for sensitive types but definitely brightening and good for congested skin
