  Pros

  The lightweight formula absorbs well into the skin. Its main advantage is that it's pure ingredients, making it affordable. It seems to help balance oil and moisture levels in the skin. There's a noticeable difference when I'm not using it.

  Cons

  To be honest, there's nothing particularly disappointing about it. However, it doesn't dramatically improve your skin as much as you might expect.

  Tip

  When first using this product, I recommend mixing it with a soothing gel or another cream before applying it directly. Use it only in your evening skincare routine.

  Pros

  It absorbs well and spreads easily. Even a small amount is sufficient for effective skin care.

  Cons

  Be careful when opening the lid as it can easily cut you. I wonder if the ridges on the lid were really necessary.

  Pros

  My skin fluctuates between combination dehydrated and combination. It's fairly resilient, with some dead skin cells on my nose. I was pleasantly surprised that it didn't tingle as much as expected, and I loved how quickly the formula absorbs. It has a very watery consistency.

  Cons

  For a high-concentration AHA, lactic acid tends to be somewhat moisturizing. However, it can still dry out and sensitize the skin. Those with dry or super sensitive skin might find it challenging to use.

  Tip

  I use it every other evening as the first step after cleansing, or apply it 20 minutes before a cleansing mask. It removes dead skin cells, leaving your skin incredibly smooth. The difference in skin texture when using this versus not using it is remarkable. It's especially effective for those with stubborn dead skin on their nose. Soak a cotton pad generously and gently wipe your nose to remove the dead skin. Just keep in mind that the dead skin will return if you stop using it.

  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.

  It effectively removes dead skin cells and seems to absorb well into the skin

  Cons

  It's quite harsh and makes my skin very dry, so for those with dry skin...

  Tip

  Make sure to use a moisturizer
