  Pros

  The Ordinary is great because it's affordable and offers a variety of ingredients, so you can tailor it to your skin concerns (no worries if it doesn't work out). While it contains ingredients that help with dead skin cells, I bought it for my pore issues. The formula has a water-like consistency that absorbs well, and it's the gentlest among AHA products, making it suitable even for super sensitive skin without causing irritation. I didn't notice much difference when I first started using it, but by the second bottle, my skin texture had noticeably improved.

  Cons

  I've tried other products from The Ordinary, but I've always found that the dropper's opening gets misaligned, making it difficult to close properly. Also, for some reason, I occasionally feel a tingling sensation when I apply it to my skin.

  Tip

  Since this ingredient doesn't mix well with UV rays, apply it at night as part of your evening skincare routine, and use it only once a day. After applying AHA products, it's best to wait a moment before layering on other products.

  Pros

  I used the 5% product. My entire body is dry, and I used it for milia around my eyes and keratosis pilaris on my body. In conclusion, it was really great for keratosis pilaris! You can visually see the keratin/dead skin cells dissolving and hair emerging. It's amazing... However, it wasn't effective for milia. I'm also using a glycolic toner, but this was more effective than the toner.

  Cons

  When using it on facial skin or legs, it can sting a bit if you don't control the amount. But considering I have super sensitive skin, it wasn't that irritating. Oh, and it's a shame that it runs out quickly when used on the body...

  Tip

  For those with slightly bumpy skin due to keratosis pilaris, it's really great to try! (I'm not sure if it helps with severe keratosis pilaris that's too deep, red, but not protruding.) I'm not sure if it's psoriasis on my body, but sometimes I get itchy patches that don't moisturize well. When I applied this and then followed with oil, it absorbed better and healed faster!
