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.

Magic stuff
I love this stuff! It's great for exfoliation and your skin feels lovely after using it. You might notice that it makes your skin tingle a bit while it's on but that's quite normal, if it hurts rinse it off! For the price this is a fantastic bit of skin care and you don't need to use a lot of it, so it's even better value.

I found this a bit much for my skin, I’d recommend caution if you have sensitive skin or aren’t used to acids

The best mask
This is such an amazing mask for peeling. It removes the top layer of skin leaving fresh skin underneath and removing dead cells.

Love it!
I was a bit scared to try this as I haven’t used an acid peel before but it is very good and results show from first use. I left on 6 minutes the first use, 7 minutes the second time and building up by a minute each use up to a max of 10 mins. Also great for hard skin on elbows, feet and knees, just so not leave on for any longer than stated, do a patch test and thoroughly rinse off. Will definitely repurchase
