The Ordinary earns strong reviews for effective, ingredient-forward skincare that improves texture, hydration, acne, and glow—with standouts like Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1%, Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5, Glycolic Acid 7% Toning Solution, and the AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution. Reviews also flag weaknesses: some formulas feel sticky, can pill or irritate sensitive skin, high actives may overwhelm newbies, results can be hit-or-miss, and product naming/usage can be confusing.
AI summary based on Thingtesting reviews
Great products for the price, but not everything is best from them. A few items seem to be worth it for their lower price point like their retinol oil.
I’ve tried many products over the years and each one has been amazing and so well priced. I love this brand!
We love the Ordinary in our house. My daughter and I both use it, and have been happy with every product we've tried. My favorite part is the PRICE! Great prices and still great results!
I really love how simple and affordable all the ordinary’s products are!
I really like how affordable these are and that they usually are simple—one ingredient at a specific concentration so you just get what you want. Only downside is you sort of need some basic level of skincare knowledge to build a routine with these, because they don’t really say what it’s for on the bottle, just gives the active ingredient and won’t usually have a multi-layered formula it’s up to you to mix and combine products for your needs. But that’s worth it in my opinion to keep things nice and simple and it’s a much more affordable price.
The best affordable and accessible skincare. I use the niacinamide daily and love the salicylic acid mask
amazing price point for the quality of their products. they work amazing on the skin and the moisturizers are some of my favorite

I love the Ordinary products and really appreciate how many single ingredient, affordable options they have. I’ve enjoyed every product I’ve purchased (including their facial cleansers, serums, brow growth serum, and bha peeling solution). I’m hopeful they stay affordable and would also love to see more peptide formulas. I’d def buy skincare makeup from them if they rolled that out too.
Good facewash and hylauronic acid
Amazing quality with good affordable price point
very affordable but wasn't as moisturizing as i'd hoped and also broke me out a little!
The Ordinary is a unique brand, their products are top notch.

There is nothing ordinary about The Ordinary, their products have been extraordinary for me. 🥰 I get the same instant results and relief that I get with products that sell at 5-10 times the cost of The Ordinary. 💸
I love the price point of their products and how well they work. I have tried most of their products and every one has worked so well on my skin. They have a product for everything and I know they won't cause any irritation.
Most of this skin care is really great and easy to use, although their lines change frequently, so if you carefully study and establish a skin care routine that works, you may not be able to reorder.
First try of this brand because it was on viral I was so scared . But I eventually love it when i tried their hyaluronic acid so smooth and very refreshing.I don’t even consider done prepping my skin without ordinary product.
Inexpensive skincare products that normally produce good results!
An amazing affordable brand. I have their AHA BHA, retinol, salicylic acid, and hair serum. I love the first 3 and haven't had enough time to use the hair serum. The salicylic acid works fast, only took 2 nights of usage to see results.
Good brand

I have tried a number of products from The Ordinary and thought they were a great deal and offered high-quality for the price point. I have had some dropper bottles leak, so I wish they’d use a pump bottle instead.
