Size: 30ml

Discover the power of clinical-strength exfoliation with The Ordinary AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution—an intensive at-home treatment that delivers spa-quality results. This advanced exfoliating formula harnesses the combined power of alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) and beta hydroxy acids (BHAs) to resurface your skin, revealing a luminous, refined complexion. Whether you’re battling dullness, uneven texture, or acne, this revolutionary peeling solution works to transform your skin from the inside out, making it an essential addition to any serious skincare routine.

Key Benefits: What This Peeling Solution Does for Your Skin

Deep Surface Renewal
The 30% AHA concentration works to gently dissolve the bonds between dead skin cells, promoting natural cell turnover for visibly smoother, more refined skin texture and enhanced clarity.

Intensive Pore Purification
With 2% BHA, this formula penetrates deep within pores to dissolve oil, debris, and congestion, effectively minimizing the appearance of blackheads and preventing future breakouts.

Luminous Radiance
Consistent use reveals a brighter, more even-toned complexion with a natural glow that makes skin appear youthful, healthy, and refreshed.

Texture Refinement
This powerful solution smooths rough patches and reduces the visibility of fine lines, leaving skin feeling incredibly soft and looking visibly refined.

Dark Spot Reduction
The AHA complex helps fade hyperpigmentation, sun spots, and post-acne marks, promoting a more uniform skin tone over time.

How to Use: Step-by-Step Application Guide

Usage Frequency
Apply once weekly for best results. Those with sensitive skin should begin with bi-weekly application and gradually increase frequency as tolerance builds.

Pre-Treatment Preparation
Start with freshly cleansed, completely dry skin. Discontinue use of other exfoliating products 24 hours before and after treatment.

Application Process

• Apply: Using the dropper, distribute an even layer across your face and neck. Carefully avoid the delicate eye area, lips, and any compromised or broken skin.
• Timing: Allow the solution to work for exactly 10 minutes. A mild tingling sensation is normal, but do not exceed the recommended time to avoid potential irritation.
• Removal: Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water until all traces of the solution are removed.
• Post-Treatment Care: Follow immediately with a hydrating serum (such as hyaluronic acid) and a nourishing moisturizer to replenish and soothe the skin.

Important Usage Guidelines & Product Conflicts

Avoid Combining With:

• Other Exfoliating Acids: Never layer with additional AHAs, BHAs, or physical exfoliants on the same day to prevent over-exfoliation and irritation.
• Retinoids: Schedule retinoid use for alternate evenings only, as simultaneous use can dramatically increase skin sensitivity.
• Direct Acids: Do not use with other potent actives like glycolic acid or salicylic acid treatments.

Safety Precautions:

• Always perform a patch test if you have sensitive skin or are using this product for the first time.
• This product increases sun sensitivity—daily broad-spectrum SPF 30+ is mandatory during use.
• Discontinue use if excessive irritation, redness, or discomfort occurs.
