Chemical Scalp Exfoliant - Helps Manage Dandruff & Oils
I use this product for "other than the intended purpose". Skin care is important to me, but I struggle with psoriasis/dermatitis which sometimes results in dandruff and a rough patch behind one ear. In the past I have tried glycolic acid for my face and it was terrible. More than just a purging, it...

Not a bad product, my skin just didn't care for it
Product came with 2 options to apply them with: a squirtle or a regular top lid thingy. I chose the squirtle and I'd spritz it on a bottom pad and swept across my face. It would sting me. I thought my skin was just not used to it. This was one of the first products I purchased when I got into skinca...

Noticeable Results In A Few Days
I have extremely sensitive skin and everything breaks me out. Used this product everynight before bed for a month, and haven't experience any breakouts or bad reaction. Already see results in the texture of my skin (face/chest). I dont see any glow or dark spots lighting on my face. But I do see a big difference in the appearance of my dark underarms lighting up. I will also try on my scalp, to see if that makes a difference on my extremely dry itching dandruff 4c hair. This is my first time using any Ordinary products, and I highly recommend. Definitely trying more products in the future!
Perfect product
This product has changed the texture of my skin. I absolutely love it.
Breakout
I had a breakout and the Ulta rep suggested this, I think my breakout was from eczema but this cleared majority of it overnight. My skin was broke but not burning and this helped it heal. I highly suggest and also used on my face. I am a darker skin women (black women) and I would recommend this product for our skin.
I would not buy this if you have sensitive skin
Way too harsh stripped my skin barrier much better options for sensitive skin like a glycolic acid cleanser also smells bad.
Good for hormonal acne
As a pcos girlie this and birth control lowkey saved my skin, i've definitely gotten way less hormonal acne breakouts since i started using this

Can i use it with la roch posay effaclar gel cleanser?
- Asked by yarely
- 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 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

I use the volufine and retinal 1.0 with squalene. Can I fit this into my routine?
- Asked by Charlotte
- Official Answer By The Ordinary - Brand EngageHi there, we do not recommend using Retinoids with Direct Acids in the same regimen. However, Volufiline 92% + Pal-Isoleucine 1% has no contraindications and can be used with both retinoids and direct acids.Was this answer helpful to you
- Q
Can I use this under my arms?
- Asked by Adaline
- Official Answer By The Ordinary - Brand EngageGlycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating Toner has been tested for use on the face, neck, and scalp. It can also exfoliate areas of the body experiencing rough and bumpy skin. However, we do not recommend applying this product to covered areas of the body such as the inner thighs or underarms, as these areas may have more sensitive skin, and the natural occlusion of these regions may make them more prone to irritation.Was this answer helpful to you
- Q
What is the best serum to safely use with this. I have very mild acne and dark spots
- Asked by Julia
- Official Answer By The Ordinary - Brand EngageHi there, we have many treatments that work well with Glycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating Toner, however, based on your concerns you may wish to pair it with Alpha Arbutin 2% + HA to target dark spots! We hope this helps <3Was this answer helpful to you
