I Love It!
I bought this alongside The Ordinary 10% Niacinamide + Zinc, and my skin has never felt better. My fine lines have noticeably smoothed out within the first week of using this. My skin has definitely smoothed out in texture, and my self confidence has improved so much! It has also helped reduce my acne scars. I will absolutely be buying this again! xo

Improved my pigmentation !
After just a week of using the product I have noticed a huge improvement in my skin. The pigmentation on my forehead has started to fade and overall skin condition is smoother and clearer.

Amazing product
I have sensitive skin and every skin treatment I’ve used in the past has hurt until my skin adjusted to it and that takes weeks but this was fine and I used it by itself :) my skin has never looked this good too

This product has done amazing things for my skin as a chemical exfoliant. I still struggle with mild acne and I feel as though this is one of the things that has helped keep it under control really well.

Nice and gentle way to help peel ur face but with not much down time as the glycolic acid. I will buy this again and it's so cheap

This does what it says on the box. I have sensitive, dry/combination skin, and I found this only irritating just when I started using it. There are results fast, I found within the first 3 uses, I felt the difference in my skin. It looked clearer and felt a lot smoother. I use it about once a week now and it’s a great pick me up a few days before an event. For the price, it’s a fantastic product!

Haven't noticed any chance using this with my skin and it can feel a bit harsh on your skin if your not used to this ingredient but you can dull it down. Other than that, it is great packaging, good value, lasts ages and has good light weight texture

This has improved the texture of my skin after only 2 or 3 uses. It really helps to prevent the dead skin build up that I suffer with so my skin is so much softer and brighter! It doesn't irritate my skin either

I love love love this product! I have slightly textured skin with larger pores and I'm finding this is really helping with both! I use this every night before I moisture, and my skin looks flawless and bright every morning! Would just be slightly cautious if your skin is on the more sensitive side as it can tingle sometimes, especially if you've got breakouts. I've got very normal skin so that tingling doesn't bother me too much and I find the exfoliating properties help to get rid of my forming breakouts, or get rid of them faster if they develop into something more nasty! Would also definitely recommend an SPF every day as I found my skin a lot more sensitive to the sun when using this.
