AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution FAQs

What does AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution do for the skin?

The AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution combines alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) and beta hydroxy acids (BHAs) to exfoliate the skin's surface and penetrate into the pores. It helps improve your skin's texture, targets the appearance of uneven skin tone, and reduces signs of congestion that could lead to blemishes.

How do I use AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution in my skincare routine?

The AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution is only suitable for experienced users of acid exfoliation. It should be used no more than twice a week, ideally in the PM, on thoroughly clean, dry skin. Using your fingertips, apply evenly across the face and neck, avoiding the eye area during application, and rinse off. Leave on the skin for no more than 10 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water. Use only on unbroken skin, and ensure you wear sunscreen while using this product.

How often should I use AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution?

We recommend using The Ordinary AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution once or twice a week, ideally as part of your PM routine.

Is AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution suitable for all skin types?

The AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution is only suitable for experienced users of acid exfoliation. This formulation has a high concentration of acids and may not suit sensitive or compromised skin. We recommend doing a patch test before full application to ensure your skin can tolerate the formulation.

What precautions should I take when using AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution?

We recommend using the AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution in your PM routine to minimize sun exposure. If using this formula in your AM routine, be sure to use sunscreen, wear protective clothing, and limit sun exposure. Avoid applying near the eyes, but in case of accidental contact, immediately rinse thoroughly with water. If irritation persists, seek medical advice.
