The Ordinary Exfoliators & Acids

Acids & Exfoliators for Smooth, Clear Skin

Chemical exfoliation is where The Ordinary built its cult following, and this range covers every acid worth knowing. From gentle daily toners to the famous ten-minute peel, these formulas resurface the skin to improve texture, tone, congestion and radiance - just introduce them gradually and always follow with SPF, since acids increase sun sensitivity.

Choose Your Acid by Concern

Dullness & texture: the award-winning Glycolic Acid 7% Toner for daily resurfacing, or the intensive AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution as a weekly 10-minute treatment.

Blemishes & congestion: the Salicylic Acid 2% Solution clears pores.

Uneven tone & redness: the Azelaic Acid 10% brightens and calms.

Gentle resurfacing: the Lactic Acid 10% + HA for sensitive skin.

Follow exfoliation with a hydrating serum and moisturiser, and explore Retinol & Retinoids for night-time renewal.
