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 have been using this product for a few months now and I've noticed no change in my post acne marks, unfortunately. Maybe it will work for less red or very mild post acne marks but mine are really quite defined. So this is the first Ordinary product that hasn't worked very well for me unfortunately.
Sticky, absorbs quickly

The overall redness in my skin has declined substantially when using this and even though it is a bit sticky it absorbs quickly and nicely with a little bit of added moisturization to the skin. I used it most often to thin out a thick moisturizer I love and it works perfectly. This may appear to be like other serums but this is a thinner more watery texture and if you experience "product overload" this would be ideal for you.

This product is easy to use and not too goopy, although, I'm not sure I felt like it did all that much for me. I will keep trying it out and see if I can tell any changes.
May be best suited to very mild inflammation

I've been using this for about two months. I don't notice much of a difference in my acne marks, but I do find it makes a noticeable difference in the redness I usually have around my nose, which is a welcome surprise.
