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.

So far so good
Have used twice, am sticking to recommendations and gradually building up. Some slight tingling when I first put it on but my skin feels great after and think it’s already looking clearer and more balanced. Excited to see longer term results.

I've only used this a couple of times (as its only meant to be used 1 to 2 times per week) but so far my skin looks fresh after and hasn't irritated my skin

Fab producrs
I’ve been using Ordinary range for a while but it is the first time that I am using the peeling solution. So far has been working great. Didn’t cause an a irritation to my skin as other peeling solutions did in the past. Definitely use in the evening though so your skin has a chance to calm down and recover during the night. And don’t use more than recommended in the package. I always follow the instructions and always achieve great results.

I swear by this stuff!
I was skeptical when I brought this after seeing it on TikTok (being misused) I have combination skin, depending on the season my skin will become very dry over a majority of my face. I have PCOS with hormonal spots often. I will apply this to my face and neck once a week when I’m having a self care evening, and instantly my face looks more radiant, dead skin and lumpy dry little spots are removed (I will cleanse with my foreo after) I now am unable to go without product, this is a big staple to my skincare regime.
