    Great price point for a solid product

    I have pretty dry skin so i have to be careful, but I think this really makes a difference in texture and appearance of my almost 60 year old skin. I do it at once a week at night. After treatment, i add the Ordinary's multipeptide HA serum followed by a ceramide moisturizer. I then cover the whole face with a light coat of Nivea or Aquaphor. I feel like the results are almost as good as a light peel I might get at a medspa. It isn't going to make me look 20 years younger, but it definitely improves the smoothness and discoloration.

    I would buy it again

    Super nice. It deep cleaned for sure after one use. My skin was soft. I used it only once so not sure about the peel part which I'm game for. Adding a little extra exfoliation is important and helps my other products continue to do their job. I'll let you know though about that part. Definitely a nice product and add on

    It's like water in a bottle with some food coloring

    Ordinary product line is like water in a bottle with color for serums and this face cream sits on your face and doesn't penetrate and dries out feeling like wax. And the company is horrible. If you buy anything online which I suggest you don't, you will have to go through hoops to return anything

    Great skin reset

    I love to use this product when my skin is looking dull or when I can tell it's in need of a reset. After my skin looks glowy and feels amazing! One of my holy grail products!

    I'm 71 and Love It!

    I'm 71 and have decent skin, which I think helps with looking good for my age. I've been doing various laser treatments for over 10 years and while it hasn't been miraculous for wrinkles it's kept my skin from having a rough texture or discolorations. This product is an amazing addition to my routine. I've only used it twice, but both times I've ended up with a glow, with light reflecting naturally due to how incredibly smooth my skin is. This will become a regular part of my routine - I love what it does. Plus, if you're someone who likes instant gratification, this will give you that boost because the results are immediately visible. I know a selfie would really make sense here, but I'm too camera shy to include one - sorry!

    Best at home peel out there

    This is comparable to the Obagi blue brilliance at home peel at a fraction of the cost. Did experience minor discomfort the first time I used it but it quickly subsided and have not experienced it since. I use it about once a week and am happy with the results.

    Works so well

    I personally like this. I will say yes there is a slight burning sensation when you apply this but it’s not painful or anything like that. It actually feels nice in my opinion. It’s a very liquidy texture and is easy to smooth/rub in all over face. This leaves my face feeling so fresh and nice. Gives my skin a nice look after use. I use 2 times a week and have found that is the best. I have used for about 3 weeks now. I will continue to use and I most definitely would recommend. It does not have a harsh scent. I adore the dropper style bottle. 10 out of 10.

    Dried my skin.

    I got this because I've been working on trying to have nicer skin. I patch tested on my hand it was fine. I put it on my face as directed washed it off and my face felt great... until the next day. I had a lite rash going from cheek to cheek. it was sensive to the touch but not painful, just uncomfortable. Day 2 the area became super dry. I moisturize twice a day and it isn't helping. I am on day 3 and the area is more dry and starting to flake. my face is way worse before I used the product. Really disappointed.

    My holy grail skin product

    I cant live without this product. I have chicken pox scars on my face and in just one use, this produce helped reduce their appearance. I've worked my way up to using it twice a week as part of my nighttime routine. My skin hasn't looked better in 20 years! If you have sensitive skin, you want to leave it on for just a few mins once a week and gradually work yourself up to 10 minutes. It burns/tingles a tiny bit, but nothing that isn't tolerable.

    Love this stuff

    I used this 2 times a week and my face was so clear. Not so much right now because i haven't been consistent with it. I use the ordinary niacinamide after and moisturize. I recommend to not use this if you have anything open on your skin unless you are ok with a burning/tingly feeling. For me it also itches the first few mins.

    100% Worth the buy-- complete texture overhaul

    I have been using this for about two months now, 2-3x per week and for about 7-10 minutes per use. Let me tell you… my skin has never been better. I started this mainly to treat my closed comedones, but it has done so much more. Not only are they gone, but my pores are clearer and smaller, my fine lines are disappearing, and my skin is SO glowy! I love this product, a little too much lol! I have way more confidence going without makeup now and when I do wear makeup, it sits much nicer on my skin. No more rough texture and visible pores. As you can see in my before photo, I had a lot of rough and bumpy texture and visible lines, in my after photos you can see my skin is smooth. The only warning i will give is if you have sensitive skin, maybe stick to 1-2 uses a week at about 5 mins per use. It will sting a bit at first because it’s an acid, but it goes away quickly and the results are worth it. Def planning on using this product for as long as they keep making it!
