The Ordinary's AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution is a potent formula that acts as a ten-minute exfoliating facial, helping to revitalise and tone the complexion's appearance.
The scientifically developed formula delivers a specified blend of 30% alpha hydroxyl acids (glycolic, lactic, tartaric and citric), as well as 2% beta hydroxyl salicylic acid. The duo have been carefully pH balanced for optimum efficacy, working to deeply exfoliate the surface layer of skin, unclog the look of pores and visibly re-texturise the complexion. Plant-derived Tasmanian pepperberry offers soothing properties, while a cross-polymer form of hyaluronic acid seeks to deeply rehydrate the skin. Topped off with radiance-enhancing black carrot extract, the illuminating serum promotes the look of revitalised, glowing skin.

How to use The Ordinary Peeling Solution
This powerful peel is intended for experienced users of acid exfoliation, no more than once or twice per week in the evening. To apply, begin by thoroughly cleansing the skin and patting dry. Sweep a thin layer of the solution across the face and neck with your fingers, avoiding sensitive or broken skin. Leave on for no more than ten minutes, then rinse with lukewarm water. A tingling sensation is normal, but rinse off if discomfort or irritation occurs. Always follow with a broad-spectrum SPF the following morning.
What does The Ordinary Peeling Solution do?
The Peeling Solution is a chemical exfoliant powered by AHAs/BHAs. It helps to visibly brighten the complexion, reducing the appearance of pigmentation and redness, alongside decongesting the skin of impurities for a smoother, more unified-looking texture.

The best chemical exfoliant
This is the only chemical exfoliant I use! You do have to gradually build up the time you have it on as it can be quite harsh but it’s definitely worth it!

Great for redness/acne scarring
I love any ordinary products and this one is no different, I use once a week/fortnight inbetween using their glycolic acid and my skin looks fab, this evens out my skin tone and lessens any red marks from spots etc plus makes my skin feel very soft!
