The Ordinary reviews and discussion

I love the Ordinary, what worked for my skin so far is the Natural Moisturizer Factors+HA., the Multi Peptide Eye serum and Multi peptide HA Serum. However the 100% Plant Derived Squalene and the Squalene Cleanser was not for me, my skin felt to warm. It did work for my niece. My 17 year old son uses the moisturizer and his skin looks flawless, he has combination skin with a pimple here and there.

I use the niacinimide solution everyday on my face. It really helps with textured skin. Plus, the price is really friendly, talking as a college student . ;)

I recently decided to try The Ordinary's Caffeine Solution 5% after reading countless recommendations and I'm incredibly glad I did. From the first application, I noticed a significant difference in the appearance of puffiness and dark circles under my eyes. The lightweight serum is incredibly easy to apply and absorbs quickly without leaving any sticky residue. It's been a few weeks now, and the skin around my eyes feels firmer and looks much brighter. One thing I appreciate about this product is its simplicity and effectiveness. With just a few ingredients, including caffeine and green tea catechin, it targets the eye area with precision. It's refreshing to find a product that lives up to its claims without unnecessary additives. Another bonus is the affordability of this product. High-quality eye serums often come with a high price tag, but The Ordinary has managed to offer a product that is both effective and budget-friendly. I've also found that a little goes a long way, making this an excellent value for the price. For anyone on the fence about trying this product, I highly recommend giving it a shot. Whether you're battling with tired eyes from too many late nights or you're looking for an effective way to reduce the appearance of dark circles, The Ordinary's Caffeine Solution 5% is a game-changer. It's definitely earned a permanent spot in my skincare routine.

Loving my purchase of The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5. I bought it on a whim and because it wasn’t a breaking the bank type of skincare product I thought I would try it out. It is like creamy, soft water droplets on your skin. My skin looks brighter, healthier, and feels sooo soft. I’m always very careful when purchasing skincare because of harsh chemicals like parabens and sulfates. This product is paraben and sulfate free. To be honest I haven’t noticed a difference in my wrinkles but it’s early yet maybe after some time I will. But for now, my skin feels softer and is looks glowing. Definitely a keeper

After a few days of using this product my skin looked the same but felt very soft and smooth. After about a week skin still felt soft and smooth and began looking brighter…just healthier looking. After just over 2 weeks my enlarged pored stared to look a little tighter. After a month I decided I loved this product.

I’ve been using the ordinary for around two years now and it’s a repurchase every single time I run out. The moisturizer helps me with dryness in the winter and the niacinamide serum helps reduce the acne that I get on my cheeks!

This product gives me the best results for dry skin and helps me maintain a easy face wash routine!!! pricing is beyond reasonable<3

i bought the daily skin kit, although many rave about it, i only enjoy the hyaluronic acid :( the cleanser was not beneficial to my oily skin, it didn’t froth in my hands or remove the oil off my skin:(

I have REALLY dry and flaky skin, + the climate here is hot and dry, One fine day I buy the Natural moisturising factors + HA cream and noticed pretty significant results, I can also repurchase it without feeling the doom of immense guilt

I bought the iconic pink soothing & barrier support serum and it’s one of my favourite products so far 🤩 . Definitely LOVE it, at I’ve been using as an “instantaneous” treatment before going out and i’ve been applying it after washing my face 2/3h before leaving the house, best thing i’ve ever done, it nourishes the skin, leaves it glowy and shiny, no red spots, minimises pores and blackheads and just gives to the skin a beautiful porcelain texture, i’ve been trying it as a 3 night out of 7 treatment for the past 4 weeks and i can strongly and safely affirm that glow✅ cleanliness✅ red areas❌ blackheads❌ uniformity✅ looking awake✅ smooth texture✅ simply PERFECT for me, for reference my skin is very dry and tends to develop eczema, this serum helped with that and took the redness away, be careful using it tho DO NOT APPLY IT EVERYDAY!!! It could cause you breakouts if your skin is as sensitive as mine, i’ll post before&after pictures below for instance, anyway that’s my favourite product of all the brand with the caffeine serum, glycolic acid and the retinol! Definitely recommend, 4/5

I'm 30 and still get mistaken for a 20 something year old! and i honestly owe it to my skin care routine. Not only is it affordable...it works!!! i will be rubbing this on my face until the day i die. I noticed the difference in my skin from one use!

As someone who has battled with acne, finding the right skincare regimen has been a journey filled with trial and error. However, since incorporating The Ordinary into my routine, I've witnessed a remarkable transformation in my skin's appearance. The Ordinary's products have truly been a game-changer for me. The difference in my complexion since integrating these products is undeniable. The brand's commitment to simplicity and transparency in their formulations has been refreshing, allowing me to understand exactly what I'm putting on my skin. What sets The Ordinary apart is its accessibility and affordability without compromising on quality. With a wide range of targeted treatments available, it's easy to create a personalized skincare routine tailored to individual needs. Whether you're dealing with acne, aging concerns, or simply looking to maintain healthy skin, The Ordinary offers something for everyone. In conclusion, I can confidently say that The Ordinary has been a game-changer for my skin. While my battle with acne may continue, the improvement I've experienced since incorporating these products has been nothing short of remarkable. I highly recommend The Ordinary to anyone seeking effective skincare solutions backed by science and transparency.

I have been using both the Vitamin C Suspension 30% in silicone and Granactive Retinoids 2% Emulsion; for over a year now. Due to having more sensitive skin, I find retinol can be quite strong to use regularly. However using the Retinoid 2% Emulsion much gentler and find that it helps even out the skin. The Vitamin C Suspension 30% in Silicone definitely is felt working; as you can feel the tingling sensation!

I found The Ordinary's product to be effective in addressing skincare concerns, offering noticeable improvements in skin texture and appearance at an affordable price point. However, there are areas where improvement could be made. While the minimalist packaging is functional, it lacks the luxurious feel that some consumers might desire. Additionally, more information on how to incorporate products into a skincare routine would be helpful, especially for newbies. Overall, The Ordinary offers excellent value for money with effective products, but enhancing the user experience and packaging could make it more appealing.

I really love The Ordinary’s Glycolic Acid 7% Toning Solution. I add it to my serums each night after cleansing and before my night cream. It’s made a huge difference in the clarity and texture of my skin. And the price is fantastic.

The Ordinary Soothing and Barrier Support Serum and AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution are game-changer for anyone looking to improve their skin's overall appearance and texture. This serum is specifically formulated to target and strengthen the skin's natural barrier, providing a soothing and calming effect. After applying the peeling solution for the recommended 10 minutes, I noticed an immediate improvement in the texture of my skin. It felt smoother and looked brighter. Over time, with regular use, I also noticed a reduction in the appearance of my acne scars and a more even skin tone I highly recommend both for anyone looking to improve their skin's barrier function, reduce sensitivity, and achieve a healthier complexion. It's a reliable and effective addition to any skincare routine.

I started using the products in December 2022 and i have been using them till date .Usage of these products requires adequate knowledge of AHA and BHA acids,how to use them , when to use them and what products to use them with.My fist time with the products i was a little over ambitious and used a variety of acids on my face and i destroyed my skin barrier.I took a break off the products to rebuild my skin barrier as i did extensive research on how to use them , and when i started using them the right way my skin has never reverted to it’s original acne prone state.I have a very hydrated luscious skin right now all thanks to the ordinary.Build your confidence and achieve your most beautiful self with the ordinary

This brand is so worth it! So simple and just perfect - they dont need fancy schmancy packaging or colours, they are the perfect balance. They are clean, sophisticated and give genuine results. I personally use their Hyaluronic Acid, Niacinamide and Glycolic Acid and I wouldn’t change it for a thing x

Using The Ordinary's Hyaluronic Acid is a delight! The texture is fantastic, and my skin feels amazing after each use. It's become a staple in my skincare routine, and I can't recommend it enough for anyone looking to enhance their skin hydration.

My skin is thankful to the ordinary because it totally transformed my skin, especially dealing with dry skin and hyperpigmentation. My consistency in making the ordinary my morning and night routine has improved my skin appearance and hydration.
