The Ordinary reviews and discussion

I love what The Ordinary is about and the mission of the company to create affective and affordable skin care. I've used a few products that have been great. Other products, not so much. It's a little bit hit and miss. You just need to find what is right for you. The benefit is that it doesn't cost an arm and a leg to try things out like other products. The person who helped me in store said that I could return the product within 90 days if I didn't find it effective which is great.

Great skincare products that are very affordable

The Ordinary skincare brand is an absolute game-changer! I've tried so many products, but these guys have got it figured out. Their straightforward approach and affordable prices make it a win-win for your skin and your wallet. Two words: Niacinamide and Hyaluronic Acid. These are the standout products for me. The Niacinamide serum has helped to control my oiliness and keep breakouts at bay, while the Hyaluronic Acid serum has been a hydration hero, leaving my skin plump and glowy. What I love about The Ordinary is their no-frills packaging and ingredients list. They focus on what really matters: high-quality ingredients that actually work. It's refreshing to find a brand that cuts through the hype and delivers results without breaking the bank.

This brand is simple, and offers quality products at an affordable price! They have an extensive skin care line, so many options, so many benefits...

The affordability of The Ordinary drew me to it at first, but the quality and effectiveness of the products I've tried keep me coming back to repurchase favorites and trusting their new products as well. I will use their Hyaluronic Acid until my last days!

Love this face cream - helps to beautifully even my skin tone, and light enough to use under makeup.

i would highly recommend the ordinary to those wanting a simple and bare bones skincare routine and want to learn more about ingredients in skincare

Really high quality, trust-worthy products at FAIR prices. You have to know what you're looking for when you shop The Ordinary, because they make mostly single-ingredient scientific skincare products, but they work wonders and are so affordable it's crazy.

Super affordable products — I have the Hyaluronic Acid 2% and Natural Moisturizing Factors and I really enjoy both of them so far. I use the moisturizer everyday and while it sometimes can leave me feeling sticky, that feeling usually goes away in 30 minutes unless it's hot or humid. I use the hyaluronic acid only a few times during my routine but it also makes my face feel very nice and soft afterward. I've been able to take both products with my on the airplane and neither have opened or spilled during the trip.

Love the Ordinary and their simple packaging. Looks way more sleek than some other brands. However, some of the glass bottles shouldn't be so transparent, it's hard to ensure that the contents won't expire if left in sunlight. The Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% is my favorite :)

I absolutely love The Ordinary Hyaluronic serum! I use it morning and evening and love how hydrated it makes my skin feel. A couple of drops is plenty, it applies easily, and dries quickly.

I love the hydrating oil based serums! The retinol serums can be really strong and are only suited for those that have experience with retinols.

I can't say enough good things about the ordinary. I love how accessible the brand makes skincare and how easy it is to build and follow a skincare routine -- even for beginners. I got my brother hooked on the brand and countless others.

I have sensitive skin and usually have to take samples to test whether a product will work for my skin. But not for Ordinary. All the products by ordinary and simple, clean and deliver on their promise. Highly highly recommend.

Been using The Ordinary products for a while now and have no complaints. Their hyaluronic acid is my absolute fave, and never fails to keep my skin looking plump and very hydrated!

Can’t beat the price! Have been really happy with their products and have been using them for years.

Good specially for the price but the smells are awful

Don’t use their products if you aren’t familiar with the ingredients. Their hyaluronic acid and niacinamide are their best products cult fav for a reason. No BS serums that work. Not a fan of their vitamin Cs

The Ordinary may not always work, but it is always worth the money because you only spend a little on it. It's an incredible alternative for someone on a budget who cares about keeping their skin healthy. Once you find the products that work, they will come as a staple for daily use and a rainy day, to say the least. Quality-price is right there or higher on most products and i love that.

Pretty cheap but basic.
