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.

Very strong !
I have used it a few times now and it really works the skin feels so much better. Makes my pores appear smaller and really does what it says. Make sure to test it on a little patch of skin first as it’s not for everyone. It could give you a burning sensation and if not used correctly could be bad for your skin. It is the strongest product I have ever used and it really works

Makes my skin feel so clean
It’s great if used appropriately and with moderation. It makes my skin feel so clean, but does leave some irritation behind

Lovely product
Repurchased this after not using it for a couple of years but I’m so glad I got it again! Really great for the pores on my nose and makes my skin feel soft and exfoliated without having to physically rub abrasive stuff on my face. It can tingle a little but as long as you don’t over do it you’ll be fine!

Re-purchased this one for the third time, just the best acid expoliator for the price. Build your way into it otherwise will be really irritating.
