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...

I like using this product on my arms more than I use it on my face. It's a good quality product and removes dark spots and softens areas. I like the twisty head, and it's great at exfoliating dead skin. There is a lot of product, but I did find that since I'm using it on my arms, it's running out quicker. I would probably buy again. Word of warning: use sunscreen on areas where you applied this product. Also, don't rub too hard or you'll have irritation. Do not wash off.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

HOLY GRAIL for body odor! Life changing

Submitted 7 months ago

By Bree

From Providence, Rhode Island

Haven't used on my face, but this is absolutely LIFE CHANGING for body odor. I've used natural deodorant without aluminum for the last couple of years, and no matter which one I try, by the end of the day, I still can smell some BO around my armpits. I've basically just been living with this and doing what I can, reapplying when possible, and always putting detergent on the armpits of my shirts before the wash. I finally said enough and did some googling and found that using glycolic acid on your armpits can massively reduce the smell. I've been doing it for at least a week now, spraying it on my armpits every other night at the end of the night after a shower when my armpits are fully clean. I do not apply deodorant after. When I wake up, I have no smell, which is not typical for me. I then shower in the morning and apply deodorant once and I'm good for the whole day. I keep sniffing my armpits because it's so hard for me to believe this is working so well lol. For the first time in a couple years, I feel like I don't have to worry about body odor at all. Haven't had any irritation or sensitivity, despite using every other night. If you deal with BO ar all, absolutely try this. I hope it keeps working like this forever.

Q
Can i use it with la roch posay effaclar gel cleanser?
Asked by yarely
Official Answer By The Ordinary - Brand Engage
Unfortunately, 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

Q
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 Engage
Hi 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 Engage
Glycolic 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 Engage
Hi 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
