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.

Makes the skin very smooth
This is an amazing product. If you use it, you don't need any other skin exfoliator. Just be careful how you use it. I went for the principle more is more, but it felt very strong and burning and caused some minimal skin peel. However, when I started to use less of it for shorter time and then slowly built up, this is when I actually saw the great result. My skin was feeling fresh and smooth, like I had some very expensive peel at a clinic. I felt like all dead skin is gone, making fine lines and recent scars from breakouts less visible. I love it.

Amazing
Absolutely love this product but newbies beware - use this for 2/3 minutes and build up, don’t start at 10 minutes, or else it will burn!! Great for congestion and makes my skin look like glass after I’ve used it

Was nervous but I love it!
I have sensitive skin, like “if I use the wrong product it’ll give a rash” level of sensitivity. Use this twice a week, and it’s improved my texture but in general the smoothness of my skin. My skin is smooth, and even some odd texture has been smoothed out. It can feel a bit tingly, but it hasn’t reacted with my sensitive skin

Hate this product!
I really hate this product. The burning feeling was far too uncomfortable to bare. This feeling did not go away, even after several uses. This made no improvement to my skin so it went in the bin, I didn't even make it half way through the bottle. Would not recommend.

Repeat purchase
I've lost count of how many bottles of this I've bought. My skin texture feels tough and uneven before using this, and so smooth and soft afterwards. I use it twice a week and can instantly feel the difference. Highly recommended
