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...

I just recently found out that i have post inflammatory erythema and i have tried so many products from bha to tretinoin to clindamycin, etc and i still couldn't get rid of the redness. My face is very sensitive and when i get pimples the area gets very inflamed. I tried this product 2 weeks ago and this is my face now. SO MUCH MORE CALM. It lasts so long because you only need a few drops every morning and every night and my skin has no irritation or servere reaction to this. I WILL KEEP USING FOREVER.

The ordinary 2% + Nag 2 % solution worked amazingly well for my sensitive skin. As an adult I have been struggling with acne, and I have tried multiple different products that were not helping at all. Once I tried the ordinary serum, I immediately saw results in the first week, my acne was clearing up, I have been using this bottle ever since. If you struggle with acne or have acne scars I recommend using this serum :)

This product is my new holy grail. I was skeptical of this product at first when I found out the cost but decided to try it out. When I tell you I have used every last drop I'm not kidding. This product leaves your skin feeling so soft and glowing. This serum will make any breakouts disappear within a few days. Go get yourself a bottle asap!
I don't know how to layer it

Hi. I just purchased this product. But I struggle with layering it. So I think I will be able to use it only in the mornings because in the evenings, I use tretinoin and exfoliating acids, and these products can not be used with them. Usually in the mornings I use ascorbic acid which is not a good match with this product either. So can layer it with niacinamide and ascorbyl + vitamin F (if Yes, which comes first?) Thank you in advance.

Just finished my bottle. No reduction in sensitivity or redness. Pores and scars are as awful as they were when I began using this bottle. Much more obvious sebaceous filaments and increase in pustules. Oh the bright side, I think my skin became slightly more moisturized with this. Sticky texture as it begins to dry (takes a long time to soak in), but feels nice going on.
