I've already noticed my dark bikini line lightening up! Online it says that it can dry you out or to start by using it onetime a week but Ivebeen fine these couple of weeks! I definitely would invest in this!! The scent isn't a perfume like scent but it definitely doesn't smell bad!

Not like the exfoliators we had when I was a teen
I love how this product exfoliates my face gently instead of using something sandy to scratch it up.

Ouch
Saw lots of great reviews on this product, helping with discoloration, exfoliation, and odor control. Due to the higher percentage i used once a week for two weeks. Just in those two times i have been left with chemical burns, discoloration that i didnt have before and constant irritation. May work for you but i am disappointed

5th time buying
I love this product. I use it under my arms also and since I have been applying it there, I don't need deodorant. I do not smell. And of course it feels great on my face, neck area

I will die on this hill…
This is the first and probably only review I will ever write because I want my plus size girlies to know how amazing this product is… I use this under all my rolls and creases to control ODOR!!!!! Yesss odor!!! I use it under my boobs, behind my ears, around my neck, under my tummy, my groin area, literally every crevice that can possibly trap sweat/bacteria and cause unpleasant smells. TMI but I've actually gone an entire weekend without showering, because I'm a lazy bum, and I can confidently say I smelled as good as I did on the day I showered. TRUST ME ON THIS. You need to try it!!!

Great as deodorant
I use this on my face, bikini area, and underarms. I dont notice it doing much on my face, but its a great daily exfoliant after waxing. The area where it has blown my mind has been my underarms. I apply a decent amount after showering, and i can go at least 24 hours without B.O. i stopped using deodorant all together. I swear, i can go to the gym, work a double shift at a restaurant, and still smell like nothing. I have my room mate smell my underarms daily and they are shocked that they dont smell like anything.

I really wanted to like this item but unfortunately it is not good for sensitive skin. It made my rosacea flare up immediately and I had to rinse it off. I love other products from the Ordinary such as their hyaluronic acid serum and niacinamide serum. Watch out if you have very sensitive skin.

THE HOLY GRAIL FOR EVERYTHING
EVERY HUMAN ON THE PLANET NEEDS THIS!! I would give this 10 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ for this product. I purchased this as a recommendation from a friend after asking how to decrease pore size. I noticed instant results after using on my face. my face looked brighter, cleaner, more evenly toned. I have multiple keloid scars on my chest and C-section incision that never responded to steroid injection treatments. I was told my next step would be radiation therapy to treat my keloid scarring, and it would be several thousand dollars. I randomly decided to start using this on my keloid scars and also the backs of my thighs for my "strawberry skin". YALL after only ONE week my scars weren't as thick, pigmentation of the scars were lighter, some scars even unnoticeable, and the backs of my thighs were so much smoother and clear. Now, I literally use it on my entire body 🫣 AND LIKE $10!? ARE YOU KIDDING!? THERES NO REASON WHY YOU SHOULDNT BUY THIS! THANK GOD FOR THIS PRODUCT.

Love this stuff. On my 2nd bottle
I have been using all sorts of different toners and some break me out. I was looking for something that kept my skin clear and helped with skin tone. This stuff is great! Will continue using and going to experiment with other products from The Ordinary.

Love
I love how multi purpose this product can be, I use it on my hair, on my body, face etc. I wish it was in a spray bottle, it would be more convenient for me to use but other than that, I love the radiance this gives over time. Use sparingly at first

Holy grail
I have mild to moderate keratosis pilaris (KP) on my thighs and upper arms, and The Ordinary's Glycolic Acid has honestly been amazing. I noticed improvement within 24 hours, which really surprised me. After about three applications over about 4 days, the texture and appearance on my thighs improved significantly. Since I see my thighs more often than my upper arms, the changes there were especially noticeable. I almost never write reviews for products, but this one truly impressed me. It's quickly become a holy grail product in my routine. If you struggle with KP and are looking for something to help smooth the skin's texture and appearance, this has been a game changer for me.

Way too harsh
This exfoliating toner is WAY too harsh for my fair, sensitive, so what pale skin. Applied via cotton round, IMMEDIATELY noticed redness and string stinging and burning. This persisted even aftet washing it off with cool water and a gentile, moosturizing clenser. Would absolutely not recommend for anyone with dry or skin the least bit sensitive! I was trying this out instead of ising their salicylic acid serum, which I like but was seeking something more effective to gently exfoliate; physical exfoliants are typically too harsh for my face.
