I just got this product recently. What order should I add it into my routine? My routine now is cleanser, scrub, toner, and a vitamin C moisturizer. Which step should I add this before/after?
- Asked by Kay
- Official Answer By The Ordinary - Brand EngageUnfortunately, it is difficult for us to comment on the pairing of our products with those of other brands. We do not recommend using Aloe 2% + NAG 2% Solution with Direct Acids, Direct Vitamin C, Resveratrol and Ferulic Acid, and Salicylic Acid. We recommend consulting with your doctor/dermatologist, gradually incorporating one new product into your regimen at a time, and applying test patches first to see what works best for your skin.Was this answer helpful to you

Hi. I just bought my son the Salicylic Acid 2% Acne Serum and Aloe 2% + NAG 2% Solution Serum. How does he layer this after cleansing? Thank you :)
- Asked by TB
- Official Answer By The Ordinary - Brand EngageHi there! We do not recommend layering Aloe 2% + NAG 2% Solution and Salicylic Acid 2% Solution in the same regimen.

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...

Cleared My Skin
After trying countless products to heal my damaged skin barrier I decided to try out this serum since I really liked the hyaluronic acid from this brand. In the last few months since I started using this the redness and acne scars on my face have almost completely faded! I'm someone who has very sensitive skin so I was very pleased to see such amazing results while not having any irritation from the serum. This stuff really helped repair my skin in the most gentle way.
Loved it
Cleared my skin
Calming
I use it at night with my other ordinary products. I was worried a little bit because some people said they got irritated, but it's greatly improved my skin.
Not a winner
I tried this 2 different times to make sure it was this product before I wrote a review. This product broke me out in small pimples. I use a tried and true routine for many years and Im very careful when I add a new product. I like many other TO products but not this one.
Amazing😍
I love it! Love it! LOVE IT!
