    it did not work for me

    I decided to start with the lactic acid at 5% instead of 10% just in case my skin could not tolerate the stronger acid percentage. It did not sting (which is great!) but it also did not look like it did anything at all. Maybe I should have persisted and used a few bottles (I stopped after the 1 bottle was finished) but I decided to not give it a go and move on to other products from TO.

    Reaction

    Disappointed with this. Didn't get rid of acne, caused some acne, also my face would be itchy for hours after applying it. It's lightweight and clear.

    Amazing beginner acid

    The lactic acid from the Ordinary is an amazing beginner acid. It’s is best to use once a day. It is an amazing exfoliator. After just a few weeks of using it I saw lots of improvement in my acne.

    Great product to help with oily skin and blemishes

    My skin can be very difficult to treat, I managed to keep it less oily with that product. It's also helping me with my acne scars and reduce the chances of my skin to breakout. You need to be careful with it because it can cause damages to sensitive skin. I apply it every night just before an heavy moisturizer. It can be mixed with your moisturizer if you feel it too harsh for your skin.

    Miracle Worker

    I’ve been having issues with some milia developing on my face (those horrid little white bumps that won’t go away no matter how much you cleanse). This reduced, and then completely removed them. Within two weeks. Adding this to my skincare routine has been a godsend.

    I wasn’t expecting to love it!

    I was looking to change up my skin care routine in preparation for the winter and was recommended this product by a sales person. I have been using it for about a month and my skin is noticeably smoother and my make up applies more evenly. Because of the low cost, I didn’t expect it to work or have a noticeable effect but I’m pleasantly surprised and will buy it again! Recommend!

    Must have

    I was so scared to use this but I heard such amazing YouTube reviews that I figured I would give it a try, and boy am I ever glad I did. This stuff is magic, its made a huge difference in the radiance in my face, it also helps a lot with skin texture. I only use it twice a week because it is very strong but I will never be without this again!

    Great for evening out my skin

    Love this! I notice when used every other evening or so I always notice a diminished appearance of redness and discoloration. I have dry sensitive skin and I never find that this irritates me.

    One of the best lines out there!

    I love how every single product from this line is so cheap yet is very high performing. After I wash my face and neck I like to apply a toner, then hyaluronic acid from this line and let it sit for maybe half an hour. Then I will apply the lactic acid on my face and neck. When I wake up and wash my face, my face is left so soft, smooth and bright. I would highly recommend trying this product!

    Horrible

    I bought this product because I saw a lot of good reviews, but it actually turned my skin super oily and with acne. Usually, I have normal skin. I definitely will not buy it again.
