The Ordinary has firmly cemented itself as a leader in science-backed skin care. Taking the guesswork out of building a regime, it ditches unnecessary, filler ingredients for familiar, hard-working actives that deliver promising results. Enter: the Lactic Acid 5% + HA 2% Superficial Peeling Formulation (30ml), a lightweight serum that offers mild exfoliation to help even the appearance of skin tone and texture.
Wave goodbye to pigmentation and uneven texture with the Lactic Acid 5% + HA 2% Superficial Peeling Formulation (30ml) from The Ordinary.
Offering gentle yet effective exfoliation with 10% lactic acid (an alpha hydroxy acid), this lightweight serum reduces pigmentation, minimises fine lines and wrinkles and improves overall skin texture. It's also bursting with Tasmanian pepperberry to reduce signs of inflammation and soothe any redness sometimes caused by exfoliation. Oh, and there's more... it's enhanced with nourishing hyaluronic acid to not only lock in moisture, but retain it too.
Apply once per day, ideally in the evening. Can be diluted with other treatments to reduce strength until skin develops tolerance. Avoid contact with eyes. If irritation persists, discontinue use and consult a physician. (Sunburn Alert: This product contains an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) that may increase your skin's sensitivity to the sun and particularly the possibility of sunburn. Use a sunscreen, wear protective clothing, and limit sun exposure while using this product and for a week afterwards.)
Contraindications: Lactic Acid should not be used on sensitive, peeling or compromised skin. Please refer to additional sun protection note and other warnings in provided directions.

The jury is still out
I've been using it for a few weeks and have a feeling my skin is not a big fan of it. Nothing too dramatic, but definitely drying. I'm hoping as it's still new to my rather sensitive skin, it might get used to it in time.

Great
This was the 1st AHA I ever used, it's been a couple of years since I 1st used it. it a great AHA very gentle on the skin and exfoliate well you'll notice it after a month or so in.

Noticeable difference
This is one I don't use much on my face, more on my body skin because it is a bit too intense for the face, so I wouldn't necessarily recommend it if you have very sensitive skin. But I have noticed an improvement in the smoothness and pigmentation where I do use this.

Good but,
Really good for my dark skin but went brown quite quickly and I was too chicken to keep using it after that so…

The only AHA I use
I have sensitive skin and most AHA products on the market are just too harsh for me. This one with 5% lactic acid though works on me. I experienced a tiny bit redness upon application but dies down pretty quickly. Then I'd wake up with smoother feeling skin. I'd recommend night time use only with a soothing moisturiser after for sensitive skin people like me.
