Here Are 5 Must-Have Products From The Ordinary

Affordable and effective.

With summer quickly approaching, we’re ditching our heavy makeup and focusing our energy on our skincare. As the season changes, so does our skin, which is why it is important to take extra good care of yourself as the air becomes dryer and your face becomes exposed to harmful UV rays.

Seeking treatment at dermatologists and buying serums can be extremely expensive, which is why we’ve rounded up five of the best products from skincare label The Ordinary, and they’re both affordable and effective. Ranging from makeup removers to masks and moisturizers, take a look at all of our favorite products below.

AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution

What: This peeling solution unites AHAs and BHAs to combat blemishes and provide deep exfoliation, improving radiance and clears pore congestion.

After one use, the mask improves skin texture and reduces the look of fine lines as well as reduces inflammation due to the Tasmanian Pepperberry ingredient. Ideal for clearing your skin in time for summer, the product can be used once every week.
