If I use this on my scalp will it make my scalp more susceptible to sun burn/ sun damage?
- Asked by S
- Official Answer By The Ordinary - Brand EngageHi there! Exfoliating acids can increase your skin's sensitivity to the sun, so we recommend applying them only in the evening. If you don't have hair on your scalp, we also suggest following up with a sunscreen like our UV Filters SPF 45 Serum . We hope this helps!Was this answer helpful to you

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...

Good product and not expensive
The Ordinary makes all kinds of products that work really well and the price won't break your wallet
Great Product
Great product. It works very well
BO b gone
I finally decided to try this after reading that it can be used on armpits. My BO is not crazy bad, but I was still intrigued because i live in the tropics. I applied it with a cotton round after a night shower and no BO after 1 use!! I've used it a few nights in a row and no irritation although ill probably skip the days i shave. I'm going to try my feet next. Feels pretty revolutionary not even gonna lie. Unless somehow it stops working, i will always have this in my house.
I would buy this again!
It takes about a week to notice a change but it definitely works! Will keep purchasing this product
Great product, wish I knew about this years ago
I use this on my arms and lower legs for strawberry skin as well as my face a few times per week for exfoliation of my aging skin. The price is right and it has made a huge difference. I love this glycolic acid toner.
