No joke, this is hands down the best cosmetic purchase I've ever made!!! Let me list the benefits I've experienced: - Absolutely zero irritation - Noticeable results after just one use - Milia completely vanished - Blackheads removed - Skin feels moisturized after application! As expected from mandelic acid, which is the gentlest AHA, there was no stinging, redness, or any such symptoms. I even applied it to a wound and felt nothing! At first, it felt like I was just applying a moisturizing oil, making me wonder if it would actually work. But no exaggeration, the very next morning my skin was already different. The reviews on The Ordinary's official site weren't lying when they said people saw results after just one or two uses - it's the absolute truth. After the first day, my face felt incredibly smooth to the touch. I thought, 'Wow! I've never felt anything like this before!' I was so amazed that I've been applying it almost daily since then. It's been two weeks now, and there's still zero irritation. My skin's blemishes and rough patches are all disappearing! I used to have quite a bit of acne, leaving behind many dark spots, but even those have noticeably faded after just two weeks of use. Every time I look in the mirror, I'm moved by how my skin is changing. Even the blackheads in my T-zone have significantly reduced. Honestly, at this price point, for a 10% mandelic acid solution with hyaluronic acid... you absolutely must try it, I beg you!
ConsWhile it showed dramatic effects on milia, blackheads, hyperpigmentation, and skin texture improvement, it wasn't very effective on hormonal cystic acne. However, after using this, your overall skin texture looks amazingly good!!
TipA must-have for those struggling with milia! A must-have for those with hyperpigmentation! A must-have for those with sensitive skin who want to try AHAs!

After suffering from milia for years, I finally escaped their clutches thanks to this gem! Now I'm only left with some acne scars, but I'm overjoyed that no new milia are appearing! Compared to other acid products, this one is gentler and doesn't cause any tingling, making it suitable for super sensitive skin.
ConsBe careful with the amount you apply! If you use too much, your skin might feel completely dry and flaky the next morning after cleansing. So remember to control the quantity well!
TipI mix this serum with another one (the niacinamide from the same brand) when applying. A coin-sized amount of niacinamide with 3-4 drops of this seems to work perfectly for me!

That's why I didn't feel any particular stinging or irritation when I first applied it. After using mandelic acid, I definitely noticed a reduction in dead skin cells and whiteheads.
ConsIt's really disappointing that while there are offline stores in Seoul, there aren't any in other regions, so people outside the capital can't test the products.
TipIf you're using it for the first time or plan to use it daily, it's best to mix it with your regular toner before applying.

I'm so glad I did! Trying it today, I found it really does exfoliate dead skin cells gently. There's no tingling or redness - it seems to remove dead skin without any irritation. My skin feels incredibly smooth and has a lovely glow now.
ConsI don't have any complaints yet... It seems like all the products from this brand work well for me.
TipI'm using it in this order: toner - serum - this product. Am I using it correctly? I remember the sales associate telling me not to use it together with a buffing product when I bought it.
