Most loved serum. Period.

Of all the many serums I have tried from the Ordinary, and any other skincare line, this is without a doubt my favorite. I buy it again and again. I would say the best way to describe the effect this has on my fair, dry, sensitive skin is: strength. My skin feels protected, firm, bouncy, and strong ...

Most Helpful Critical Review
Still on the fence about this product!

I have to give 3 stars to this product because, after using all the content of the bottle over the course of various months, I am still confused about whether I actually liked it or not. For a bit of context: I have dry skin, which can really only take as much in terms of the amount of products I l...

From Pennsylvania

I love this product because it is not only healthy for my skin but it also calms redness and irritation. It evens out skin tone. Plus you can't ask for a better price, but the bottle could be bigger.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

Gluten Free, Great nightly hair serum and healthy eye brow

Submitted 2 years ago

By CeliacChick

From SF Bay Area

I realize this product is formulated for faces, but I instead use it about 4x week as a night scalp/hair serum and nightly eyebrow health enhancer. Why? Yes, The Ordinary has hair and eye brow serums, but they all contain wheat/wheat germ oil and I have celiac and react to topical gluten. These products plus the addition of the copper peptides on my eye brows, have helped improve the growth and health of my hair and eye brows. I had lost them when on chemotherapy (breast cancer) and then my eye brows and hair grew back really thin, sparse and weak — and never got better even two years post-chemo. Seven months ago, I started using The Ordinary (daily Niacinamide on my face and this B5 + amino acids (hair snd eye brows) and the B5 + amino acids and also copper peptides (eye brows) and now my facial skin is much healthier and my hair and eye brows are thicker and healthier too.

Holy Grail product

Deciem - BV

I use this daily, typically with Niacinamide 10% and Natural Moisturizing Factors, and at night with a retinol added to the mix. I add some other products on occasion (Vit. C, Multi-Peptide + Copper Peptide), but always use this. Nothing has made my skin look so good. I have been out for a few weeks and I notice a dramatic difference in how my skin looks and feels. This combo leaves me with glassy, smooth, hydrated, and hormonal acne-free skin. I will never let myself run out again!

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

How do you layer this if we use multiple serums? How does it pair with Glycolic acid creams, retinol, Vitamin C and hyaluronic acids?
Asked by Judy
Official Answer By The Ordinary - Brand Engage
Hi there! Amino Acids + B5 has no conflicts and can be applied after cleansing and Glycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating Toner. We recommend applying based on thinnest to thickest consistency. If using serums with a similar consistency, feel free to layer based on order of concern. We hope this helps!Was this answer helpful to you
