Accidental scar treatment?

I think this faded 15+ year old scars…?!? It's the only new product I've used, and the only thing that I apply to my neck and upper chest. I've had these 2 small keloid scars forever, and tried a variety of both cheap and expensive topical scar treatments. None worked, although silicon tape seemed t...

Inefficace !!

Je déteste ce produit ! Je précise d'emblée que j'ai la peau grasse faiblement déshydratée. La texture est superbe, le gel est épais mais facile à étirer, il glisse sur la peau sans effort, il n'y a aucun parfum, le tube est hyginéique et protège le produit de l'exposition à la lumière... ...

ive used this as my daily moisturizer for a coulple of years now. it was perfect. it gave my skin that perfect glow, lightweight (great for my oily/combination skin), first gel moisturizer i tried and instantly fell in love with it. i love testing out and trying new products but i ALWAYS came back to this moisturizer. unfortunately i recently bought some more as usual and its just not the same anymore :(. im not sure if the formula changed or what but its NOTHING like it use to be for me. it feels the same and looks the same but recently its been DRYING my skin out! and sometimes burns and tingles when i apply it. im super sad and now on the hunt for my new fave moisturizer!!!😭😭

Painful drying

Submitted 2 years ago

By Steph

From Missouri

I have oily skin and typically only use a hydrating essence in the morning. Upon first round of use of this product, the skin around my nose and mouth became painfully dry and flakey. I assumed it was an exfoliating product I was using had burned my skin. I had to limit my product usage for over 2 weeks to heal the skin. Within minutes of my second usage of this product, after my skin had healed, it became obvious what the culprit is. Immeditately rinsed off my face and put moisturizing, healing products on. The skin is still red and dry. Absolutely horrible. Never had this issue with an moisturizer before.

Not what I hoped for

For a few years I have been using the Natural Moisturizing Factors + HA but when I saw this product, I thought I will try since I have oily skin. Unfortunately, it didn't work for my skin at all, made it feel and, most importantly, look very dry. It doesn't target dryness, it causes it.

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend

i have acne prone oily skin and i was soo happy when i found this moisturizer as its fungal acne and acne safe, and unscented. i really like how cooling this moisturizer is and how its not greasy, but i will say that i wouldnt recommend to people who dont have oily skin. even though i have oily skin, in the winter it was sometimes a bit drying and left my face feeling tight, so i wouldn't recommend if you have normal skin and definitely not if you have dry skin. i think its great for the summer, and i recommend using a generous amount so your skin gets enough hydration.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

Dried my skin

Submitted 3 years ago

By Lauren

From Buffalo

I got this moisturizer to replace a different The Ordinary moisturizer. I wanted to try it because it had great reviews and its been a couple weeks of usage and i have never tried a more drying product period. It feels nice for the first three minutes but after that my skin dries to the point where i can feel every inch if my face move if i try to talk or smile. I hate it so much.

What is beta-glucan?

Hi there! Beta-Glucans are polysaccharides (chains of repeating sugar-like molecules) found in yeast, fungi (including mushrooms), some bacteria, seaweeds and cereals. The Ordinary sources its beta glucan from reishi mushrooms. We hope this helps!Was this answer helpful to you

Q
Can you mix this with tretenoin?
Asked by Valerie
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. However, Natural Moisturizing Factors + Beta Glucan can be used with The Ordinary's retinoid range.Was this answer helpful to you
