Just What I Needed
I have been looking for a product exactly like this. I needed a product that calms my skin redness and handles my acne scarring, then the Ordinary released this. I only just started using this but I needed an Aloe product for my morning routine as Aloe Vera gel seems too thick for the AM & more suit...

Sensitive skin users don't take this risk
Do NOT recommend this product. I have been using the ordinary for years, it's great that they are coming out with new stuff but not when it doesn't work for you. Most of the reviews here were from influencers that were given this product for free sadly. I had high hopes being a avid TO user. How...

Truly Amazed!!!!
I didn't buy this serum for the longest time because I thought it was meant for acne marks. I am so glad I decided to buy it! I had a scar on the top of cheek bone right below my eye from splitting my face open due to a fall. This scar was 6 years old and it was it was about an inch long and pretty deep. Nothing i tried improved it at all. I am currently on my second bottle of this serum only using it once a day and I can hardly see my scar at all anymore!!! It's practically gone! This serum has completely changed the texture of my skin and I truly am amazed! If there was ever a product that desrved to be hyped up, this is one is it!! It's not sticky it absorbs very well and it doesn't have any scent to it at all. I would absolutely recommend this serum for anyone wanting to improve their skins texture.
not for sensitive skin
DO NOT use if you have sensitive skin. Completely burned off the skin on part of my nose, and gave me more acne than I had before. My skin felt like it was burning the next day. Did not clear my marks at all. Stopped use after trying it once.
Flop for me :-(
Was rooting for this, but unfortunately it did nothing for my dark spots nor did it really "soothe" my skin during an acne flare. Finished the whole bottle since i paid for it, but won't be repurchasing. Very runny consistency, 2 stars for absorbing nicely, but that's about it
i always buy this changed my life
i've started buying the aloe 2% and nag 2% solution about last year when i had crazy acne and dark spots around my face when i tell you this cleared it up so quick!! i pair it with the azelaic acid and a light weight moisturizer and trust me you'll see the difference!!
It's definitely staying
It's affordable and it makes my skin glow and personally it does tea help dark spots
