This stuff has saved my skin

I was suffering from bad hormonal acne on my chin. I went to a dermatologist and she put me on antibiotics for three months and prescribed very agressive creams. I tried it for three months but my acne got worse. I still had the Azelaic Acid Suspension laying around and decided to give it a go, in o...

Received oxidized serum

This was my first time ordering and sadly I received an already oxidized serum which is supposed to be unoppened, most probably it's a batch that is expired as the website states unoppened products have 3 years shelf life. I will seek to return this product and hope there won't be much hassle in t...

Loved this product but my bottle was mostly air

I have been used this product for a little less than a week and it's been awesome. The catch - I was using it last night and a BIG air bubble came out and it's almost empty. I have used a pea sized amount twice a day for less than a week.

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend

Cleared up Redness, irritation, and texture

I have had some redness and texture on my cheek that nothing was helping. After a bit of research, I decided to give this a try. less than a week the texture has evened out, my skin doesn't feel angry, and the redness has gone down. I am very pleased with this purchase and will keep it in my rotation.

Disappointed in this product

Submitted 14 days ago

By Dacne

From San Diego, CA

I love most The Ordinary products but this one did not hit the spot, primarily because there is hardly anything in the tube. It also can only be put over a moisturizer, and cannot be used as a base whatsoever, including for make up because it pills and creates an unflattering appearance. If it were in it a larget tube with product filling the tube, I'd probably have given it a 4 star, but it was mostly air in the tube.

How effective on brown spots on face. I'm 65 and notice I'm getting the dreaded brown spots on the sides of my face.
