Well. Don't know about the rest of you, but this one is a complete fail. (For me - as always YMMV) The Ordinary's been wildly hit or miss for me. The Lactic Acid and the Glycolic Toner are hg...

I love Mandelic acid and have been using it for years now. I use this serum plus peels every now and then. The 10% serum I was originally using was very expensive. So when I saw this had the same %...

Great value for the price. I have very sensitive, eczema-prone skin with a very oily T-zone and dryness/flaking everywhere else. The gentle exfoliation evened out my skin texture, and I found it...

Another great product from the ordinary. Skincare can be very affordable and of good quality! When I was first using the product, I had issues with pilling, but as soon as I figured out what it...

One of the few acid exfoliants my skin can handle. I have tried low percentage lactic acid and glycolic acid and they are just too irritating. I still do not mix this mandelic exfoliant with other...

This is meant to be a very gentle chemical exfoliant. It has an oily consistency and applies like a dry oil. And is so gentle i can't tell if the softening of the skin the morning after is due to...

I was excited to try this serum since I like chemical exfoliants and wanted to try something more gentle than glycolic or lactic acid. It is a transparent liquid with a quite light consistency and...

I do not use this all over my face but mostly just on the blackheads and whiteheads on my nose. It feels oily going on but dries to a not-oily finish. A little goes a long way. The blackheads...

This did and didn't work for me. Initially I purged big time. The only good thing about this is that it helped with closed comedones and keeping my skin clear for the most part, but not...

I purged pretty bad after 1 week of using this. But the acne isnt cyctic, they were the little whiteheads that fall out by itself if you dont touch it. I did get a couple spots that did hurt for...

I really like The Ordinary and how you can customize and create your own skincare regimen with their products. I was very interested in the Mandelic Acid 10% + HA because I have seen mandelic acid...
