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.

Not for beginners
This is excellent acid for exfoliation. It is not suitable for beginners in the usage of acids or for sensitive skin. It is very strong concentration. I use it at most once a week and supplement it with nourishing oil.

not my fave from the ordinary
not my fave from this brand but still a great product when you need some extra help feeling good in your skin. smells unpleasant and does feel a bit stingy when applied. have not seen magical results like i have with other ordinary products but at the same time hasn't done any damage either. great price and great ingredients as always with the ordinary products.

Once a month
I use this maybe once a month or every two to three weeks and it really makes my skin feel soft and refreshed. Just do not put on any broken skin including spots as it will burn your soul

Peeling solution
Great product and does what it says on the tin, the ordinary is a great budget brand that delivers surprisingly well and this is no exception, if you’re a first time user of a peeling solution I’d advise to go on YouTube and watch a tutorial first as it the pro really does need to be adhered to, this is a peeling solution so maybe do a patch test before you commit to the full chabang, so saying this is a great product and incredibly reasonable in price.
