The Ordinary reviews and discussion

The Squalene Cleanser and Hyaluronic Acid have been regular repurchases for my skincare routine. The price point is truly unbeatable.

Budget friendly, solid products. I multiple types of products from this line including vitamin C, a peel, Glycolic acid and a vitamin A treatment.

Many affordable and effective products. Also love the minimalist aesthetic.

It's really refreshing to find a brand who don't try to fit too much into one product, and let each thing stand on its own with a clear function. Multi-tasking skin care isn't for everyone. It's a shame the serum foundation was discontinued - I thought it was excellent, super gentle on the skin, light coverage. At the moment I am having good results with their hair serum following post-covid hair loss. I do think it's helped me weather later waves of hair fall better, and my hair feels more resilient and seems to be growing full and strong since using it.

Every single product I’ve tried has been great. The prices are very good considering the quality. I particularly recommend the glycolic acid, applying it to your face and armpits every few days. Maybe it’s in my head but it seems like it reduces bacteria noticeably

Affordable skincare although recently they did raise their prices a ton, their products are hit and miss, for example their granactive retanoid and buffet peptide serum are good while their sunscreen and moisturizer are not so good. The formulation and quality of the active ingredients is pretty bad so you do get what you pay for

Love the pricepoints of all The Ordinary products. I have used the BHA mask for the last few years, and it's my go-to for a little skin detox. I would love if there was a bit more explanation on product benefits and what to mix/not to mix

The Ordinary is great. Their products are super affordable yet don’t compromise efficiency or quality. I love every product I’ve ever tried and I will continue to be a loyal customer to this brand!

I love Ordinary skin care products. Not only do their products work, but they are also affordable. I use the AHA mask once a week for a skin turnover and it leaves your skin feeling extremely soft. I highly recommend the niacinamide serum to help with uneven skin tone.

Simple formulations, the texture of some aren’t my favorite but the cleansers and acids are amazing.

I have tried a ton of TO products and you can't beat the price for the quality. My favorites are the rosehip oil and chia oil (which I used to buy from cocokind but TO's is cheaper), squalane, the AHA/BHA peel & the glycolic acid toner (I use it on my body instead of my face). Customer service has helped me with product questions and figuring out how to build my routine, which is SO helpful especially when you're not deep into the science like some skincare girles (I wish this were me). If you go for the sunscreen, just know the mineral one leaves a really heavy white cast so beware if you're planning on any photo ops. There is so much I want to try from this brand, and there are plenty of products to try. I have been and will be a customer for a long time.

Overall good value for a weirdly low price. I’ve mainly used their retinol but it definitely helped my acne without that really rough adjustment phase you can get with other retinols

Ever since I stumbled into a skin-care rabbithole in 2020, The Ordinary has been one of my favourite brand discoveries. Their products are high quality ingredients offered at affordable prices - what's not to love? The one thing I would highly recommend new users do is to make sure they check the compatibility of their products from the Ordinary to see how they work together in a routine - you can do this on their website fyi! The reason I say this is because the Ordinary's offerings are often distinct ingredients that the user has to pair and create a routine around, instead of broader formulations like traditional skincare companies create. This puts some extra responsibility on the user - but for these prices and quality, it's well worth it I'd say! My favourite product has been their Alpha Arbutin serum - it helped fade my acne scars over a month.

The Ordinary brings high-skincare to the public at an affordable price. Not every product may be a win, but trying out new products is possible with how cost effective they are.

Some really great products at such an affordable price! I’ve used a variety of skincare products from The Ordinary and have some staples like Squalane always stocked up. I think the products are effective at its price.

I’ve been using their niacinamide serum for years, and I don’t think I could see myself going to any other product. When I only have room for one serum in my bag while traveling, I will always choose this. They make great affordable skin care, and have never raise their prices, which is such a plus.

Their hyaluronic acid serum and squalane cleanser have completely changed my skin and have become fundamental in my routine. This is truly luxury skincare at the most affordable price point.

Best skincare and amazing prices. Can’t be beat. They have everything for such good prices

Simple products at a great price point. I like the hyaluronic acid and have re-purchased.

I like the affordability and efficacy of the products. I love their glycolic acid as well as some other standout products.
