Highly recommended
Excellent product. Definitely a fan of the no frills approach to beauty care. Great way to exfoliate skin.

Probably works
Its good, I dont know if it has cleared my skin up because I switched all of my products on the same time. (Probably not what I should have done but oh well) Other than me spilling it everywhere I think it's pretty good.

The ordinary lactic acid
Love the ordinary products for there value for money and effectiveness. Work just as well as products that cost a lot more. Seems to be having a nice effect on my skin. Feels soft and smooth and as yet no irritation. I have sensitive to dry skin. However haven't been using it long enough yet to notice any significant difference on the blemishes I am trying to clear. Will keep using though and will repurchase.

Great product

After a 3-week outbreak, made my skin super clear & glowy
As soon as I started using it, it left a lovely glow to my skin, and kept it moisturised throughout the night. I got some big spots all over for 2-3 weeks, and now my skin is almost completely clear, with an improved texture.

Smooth, revitalized skin
My skin felt smooth and revitalized after using this product. It is very liquid, easy to apply, as it goes to work.

Apply once per day, ideally in the PM. Can be diluted with other treatments to reduce strength until skin develops tolerance. Avoid contact with eyes. If irritation persists, discontinue use and consult a physician.
