Been using for over a year it has done wonders for my skin. Helping with texture and making my skin look very hydrated. Good paired with other products like hylorounic acid. These two paired together has made my skin more tolerable to my tretinoin and benzol peroxide.

Love this latic acid. It's gentle yet effective and at its price point, it's 5 stars 🌟. Use it on damp skin and follow the directions. If you aren't used to exfoliaters like this- start at once or 2xs a week. I use it 3xs sometimes 4xs a week usually in the winter I use it more. Depending on how my skin is that week. I even use this woth retinol. Only bc I'm used to it. Don't do this if you,never used retinol or haven't built up the tolerance. I looked it up, you can do this only if it's a gentle latic acid and your skin,has built up a tolerance for both retinol and this. I use the latic acid and retinol only once* a week together** That's it! I see people spending so much on latic acid when I think it's better spend on your retinol/vitamin c or a good moisturizer/ eye cream. Don't mix with other aha/bha obviously or retinol (only if you built up a tolerance you can use together once a week) use this after your toner and or essence. After the latic acid use something that's hydrating like: ceramide serum like coco kind - panthenol serum from some by mi- Vichy 89- the purito centella serum - cosrx propolis serum- naturium barrier support serum-( i think thats what the name is) these are some of what I use after the latic acid to protect and hydrate my skin barrier, then top it with a hydrating moisturizer. You'll have the most plump and glowy skin in the morning. It's insane how it helps with texture, it exfoliates while leaving your skin so soft and no bad reactions since latic acid is the gentlest of acids✨️🌟✨️🌟✨️

Been using this for about 6 months now and I see good improvement in the clarity of my skin. Noticeably diminished flakiness and smaller pores. Instructions say it may take up to a year so I look forward to continued improvement. Affordability is a major plus.

I have used the 10% version of this product as well as the 5%. I have super super sensitive skin, and though I cannot use this on my face I have noticed the scars on my legs mildly lightening since I started using it 3 months ago. I wouldn't say it is a quick process by any means, but I can definitely tell there is lightening which I'm very happy about! I have hyper pigmentation and scar easily. However I do recommend the 10% over the 5% and mixing with a favorite lotion.

I have dry, somewhat sensitive skin and added this product to my nighttime routine a few months ago. I started using it every other night and then worked up to daily use. The results have been incredible—my skin feels softer and smoother than ever before, and I’ve noticed a healthy glow I didn’t have before. It absorbs quickly, doesn’t have a strong scent, and layers well under moisturizer. One tip: if you’re new to acids, start slowly to avoid irritation, but once your skin adjusts, this is a game-changer. Out of all The Ordinary products I’ve tried, this is one of my absolute favorites, and I’ll definitely keep repurchasing.
