20 Best The Ordinary Products For Anti Aging (2023 Updated)

Overall: The Buffet is very much a buffet experience. The quality isn’t amazing, but you also didn’t spend much. It’s still pretty good for the price, but you’re left wondering if you’d have been happier had you spent just a little more.

I purchased this serum after Southwest damaged multiple items in my luggage, including shattering a bottle of Shiseido’s Ultimmune. Their solution was to give me a not even half the value of what they damaged gift card (so I could get my stuff damaged again later I guess), so I decided to try a less expensive serum I’ve heard lots of good things about.

My skin texture is very dry. I need products that provide moisture and help lock in that moisture. I felt the serum let me down here, as I was applying a LOT just to get that result. One thing about applying a lot of this serum is you get a sort of sticky texture going on.

If you give it a minute, it dries down to be less sticky but still not sticky-free. I’m unfortunately not seeing the results I was promised by multiple other reviews/hype TikToks after about a week. A little disappointing as I love so many other products from The Ordinary (side note: the caffeine drops are AMAZING).

That’s not to say this is a bad serum, though. The price is incredibly reasonable for a serum, but it simply isn’t strong enough for dry skin. I think you’d be happy if your skin is normal or oily if the stickiness doesn’t bother you.

If you have dry skin, you’ll find yourself needing to use a lot of serum to get decent results and probably should consider another product.

Love it. My favourite serum, goes everywhere from eye area to lips and neck. It cannot (nothing really can) eradicate existing wrinkles and lines, but I started using buffet + retinoid emulsion from the Ordinary about 4 years ago (buffet in the mornings, retinoid in the evenings, plus I take buffet with me when I travel), and during that time my skin has aged noticeable better/less when compared to my friends.

I can honestly say I have developed 0 new wrinkles in the last few years, and since I’ve completely stopped using anything that contains silicone, I’ve also now reached a point where my skin is so much better I do not even own a single foundation product.

Very happy with the results. I am 44, do not smoke and use zero to minimal alcohol – but have serious health issues and poor eating habits (which result in fluctuating weight). Sensitive oily/combination skin with very large pores (now very much improved).

Used to use Dior capture totale and Estee Lauder before, neither of which I have repurchased in the last 3 years. I also use the Ordinary’s moisturizing factors cream to outer eye area, cheeks, neck and lips as needed.

Only wish the Ordinary made a retinoid-based eye cream so I could give up the Omorovicza golden eye, too (the only “other” product I am still hooked on).

TLDR: Made my skin go from soft to pure silk. Use it after washing your face, then follow with hyaluronic acid (my routine is below) Added plumpness and radiance. Absolutely no texture felt for the past week on my face.

My face was extremely soft due to my regimen before trying buffet (have it at the end). I didn’t know what I was missing out on by not adding this product sooner. I decided I would finally try it just because I’ve heard so many good things.

I thought my skin was so soft before but I was definitely wrong. This is an entirely new level. My skin feels like silk quite literally. I will say that this is only possible with the help of my other products in my routine.

They all work wonderfully together. I added the buffet into my old routine right after I finished washing my face. I did the rest as usual. ALSO: I used it on my eczema on my arms with hyaluronic acid + heavy moisturizer and it went away.

Regimen before trying: Cerave SA Cleanser Hyaluronic Acid serum by the ordinary Caffeine solution (under eyes) by the ordinary Bakuchoil by inky list Cerave thick facial cream.

This is a good serum packed with peptides, antioxidants, hyaluronic acid, which are all great for hydration and keeping your skin look “glowy. ” The picture included was taken about 2 minutes after application and you can see the “glass skin” effect it produces.

However, the initial dewy-ness wears off after about 15 minutes when the product is fully absorbed into your skin. For me, this is no issue but just FYI. I definitely noticed a firming effect after application, particularly around my eyes (which is lovely).

I give this product 4 stars because there are drawbacks, see below. This is a perfect brand to experiment with different skin care products because of the price. Mostly, I use this product at night before putting on a harsher treatment/acid to help protect my sensitive skin from irritation.

Pros: Low cost (20) Instant firming effect Bottle lasts a WHILE No breakouts from use Cons: Skin feels mildly sticky after application Pills when used with certain other products No drastic anti-aging results.

Almost a year on, and I just can’t seem to finish this product. I didn’t like the feeling or the gel-like, watery texture, and whether using in the AM or PM, I just couldn’t see a difference in clarity, lines, hydration or anything.

If I used it after cleansing and pat drying my face, it seemed to absorb too quickly and leave a sticky, tight feeling, like a film formed over my cheeks. If I used it after cleansing + doing a light spray of toner/ floral water, the product got foamy and weird on my skin.

Overall, it felt drying and something seemed off with the absorption. I have to say, I prefer textures that leave the skin really comfortable (I love face oils and thicker creams for that reason). I loved Granactive Retinol in Squalane for example, as it left a really pleasant, comfortable sensation whilst feeling like it was treating my skin.

So Buffet is just not for me. Shame as I was looking forward to the many benefits! Maybe if they had a similar product but with an oil incorporated in it? I would be interested in buying that. To each their own.

Hope this helps!.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE this product! I have combination/oily skin and do suffer from hormonal acne around especially my chin area. I can’t really speak for the one star reviews as this is simply an amazing product for an outstanding price.

It could be the way they are applying (or misapplying) the product, could be skin allergies or sensitivities etc. and to that I say it is simply trial-and-error and finding out what works and what doesn’t.

For me, when I find something that works well- I stick with it! I would really recommend at least giving this product a try, for this price it is a STEAL, I wouldn’t sleep on it. A few thousand five star reviews can’t all be wrong! I have some fine lines and wrinkles, and after using this- it plumps those areas right up! No lie.

My forehead wrinkles and fine lines practically vanish, and even deeper, more stubborn ones between my eyebrows fill out some! My skin just drinks this up. It is extremely thick and concentrated- a little bit of this goes a longggg way.

I wouldn’t suggest just globbing or slathering this particular serum on. It is very hydrating/plumping and the B5 helps immensely with irritation, so it is VERY nice to use on the same evenings that I have used products containing chemical exfoliants such as glycolic acids, AHA’s or BHA’s in general.

It definitely calms my skin, and layering this serum with my AHA/BHA or retinols definitely prevents my skin from drying out or acting up afterwards, as those products can tend to be irritating. How I use it at night: I first wash, exfoliate, gently pat my skin dry, and then tone my skin.

The exfoliation and toning are a crucial step, and help to “prime” my skin to best absorb the serums and moisturizers to follow. I use a glycolic acid serum first, and allow it to dry down and absorb.

Then, I apply a couple drops of this serum, again letting it dry down. Next, I apply Sunday Riley’s A+ High dose retinoid serum. Finally, I apply a small amount of a thick emollient cream (Like Farmacy’s Honey Halo).

This product blends well with my other serums and creams and using it as a layer between my AHA’s and moisturizer keeps my skin from experiencing any intense side effects from the AHA’s. During the daytime, under makeup this stuff is an excellent primer and has some grip.

It also makes your skin look fabulously dewy and glowing. The key is to wash your face and tone. Then apply this and your moisturizer and let it all soak into your skin for 5-10 minutes before applying makeup.

Love this stuff! Its clean, straight to the point, effective, and extremely affordable. I bought this on a whim when i was at sephora looking for something to help plump my new fine lines (thank you stress) and I had tried so many different product that just were not helping (ranging in price from 10 to 100 bucks.

) I was frustrated and was about to shell out a couple hundred bucks on a well know yet very expensive skin care line thats not “clean” just to avoid botox / fillers as a little longer (mama was desperate.

) Saw this and figured F*it! Ill give this a shot and will return the expensive one if this cheapy doesnt work. Yall!. it works!!! One week in and my old forehead wrinkle is less noticeable and my new one just below and parallel is hard to see.

And my 11s are so much less obvious. Im notorious for my “WTF” face and the 11s are hard to avoid, but i feel better having this in my arsenal. I apply my retinol or AHA/BHA night serum (alternating nights) then target with this on areas of concern.

Followed by thick moisturizer and oil. Its very thick and if you want to apply all-over your face then i recommend applying a light mist of moisture to your face to give it the moisture to spread out on the skin.

Since i spot treat my fine lines, i go straight out the dropper. I gently press in and allow to dry to its tacky finish before pressing moisturizer on and up/out. Its excellent and i will continue to buy over and over.

I have extremely dry skin naturally (F36), and I have to drop on and off Acutane due to steroid induced acne…and I live in YYC which is dryer than a desert. I ordered this product because my expensive and usually effective skin care regime was no longer cutting it.

My driest area was always my nose. It would crack and flake and just generally look terrible. No possibility of wearing makeup etc. Anyhow, I did a lot of research and landed on this product. I am shocked.

Shocked at how well it works. My skin is so incredibly soft and smooth and supple. Dryness is gone. It works so well that I have skipped my moisturizer several times and my skin still feels this good.

Because I have hyper reactive skin, I’m alway concerned about my rosacea flaring, or breaking out so badly it takes months to clear, or burning even. When I put this on my face stays it’s normal colour instead of turning bright red which is a great sign.

Also it’s been weeks and no breakouts to speak of. In terms of the product itself, I use 5 drops after my lotion (kind of toner), then apply moisturizer. It takes some time to absorb, so for people who don’t have time it may be better to use this at night.

I don’t mind though because it makes my skin so dewy. I was concerned that it would affect the way my tinted sunscreen or foundation sits if I applied it to my face before the product absorbed, but actually that hasn’t been an issue.

There was no piling or melting or weird settling etc. It actually made my makeup products look better and hold longer even when I applied my products only 10 minutes after the squalane. I’ve already given a bottle to my mum, and will be gifting this to anyone from out of town staying with me to beat the “YYC Peel.

” World’s longest review because this product deserves it.

I have never even thought about writing a Sephora review before but I need to because this product literally changed my life. Trust me I have the driest skin EVER. I use the most moisturizing products on the market multiple times a day but I have never achieved my goal of being able to apply concealer or foundation seamlessly without dry patches and crustiness.

I rarely even wear makeup at all because the dryness just makes it look terrible. HOWEVER, with this product, my skin is more hydrated than ever before. I can seamlessly apply makeup and my cheeks actually feel soft to the touch after I get out of the shower or wake up in the morning, rather than tight and rough.

I apply 1 drop in the morning and 3 drops at night under my moisturizer (FAB Ultra Repair Cream). I only do 1 drop in the morning because I feel like with my sunscreen my face would be a little too oily for my liking.

I can’t say how great this product would be for oily skin, but if you have the driest skin ever like me, YOU NEED THIS 🙂 thank me later.

I’m giving this three stars because it is a good value and the packaging is sturdy while not being fancy. If your skin can tolerate this, it would last a pretty long time since it only took two small drops for my whole face.

I loved the hydration this gave me for the first few days but then I started seeing bumps under the skin on my forehead, which is usually the only place I don’t break out. It also seemed to increase whiteheads on other areas of my face before my whole face had red bumps.

My warning sign should’ve been the slight itching and blotchy red spots upon application, but I persisted since it wasn’t anything bad and from what I had read thought my skin just needed to get used to it.

My skin type is very sensitive, acne prone combo leaning mostly oily. Most moisturizers do cause breakouts for me so I’m at my wit’s end lol. Tried this because it seemed like a good choice for us with sensitive skin.

I can see this being a nice light hydrator for others. The Ordinary products work for a lot of people but they don’t live up to the hype for me, everything I have tried from this brand broke me out. Ymmv.

IšverstiShow in original languageThis HA has been the absolute staple to my facial care regiment for the last 5 years. It is perfect when used correctly. I think most who are finding it pills or not as effective probably aren’t using it to it’s full potential.

This is as pure as it gets for HA and most other brands have a ton of fillers in it so you aren’t getting such a loaded product. Here is what to do: 1. Wash your face, and keep it fairly wet (this is key) 2.

apply just 3 drops, I do forehead and cheeks. 3. Massage into the skin and let dry only partially before applying additional products. This allows the product to hold the water into your skin and also not be over concentrated so it doesn’t pill.

In addition to this (I have acne prone skin, and acne scarring) I use the ordinary’s niacinamide, and natural moisturizer at night, in the AM I use it with the Natural Moisturizer plus the powder form of Vitamin C mixed in.

It’s perfect. If i were to give any other feedback to The Ordinary is that they could really strike a home run with coming up with a night time lip sleeping mask. Something nice and thick, no scent, and full of HA would be amazing and a hit.

Thanks!.

IšverstiShow in original languageThe Ordinary Granactive Retinoid 2% Emulsion 30ml – I’m a big fan of The Ordinary product line! This Granactive Retinoid Emulsion I added into my routine as it claimed the usual things like targets fine lines and wrinkles, reducing pigmentation etc however it mentioned it could assist with ‘loose skin’? This interested me as I’ve got the first signs of ‘turkey neck’ appearing.

I thought I’d use this specifically for this area! I’ve been using regularly on my neck (in conjunction with The Ordinary 10% Niacinamide +1% Zinc) and I truly can see results! I wish I had of taken a pic right before starting and a current pic but I wasn’t thinking at the time.

The consistency is milky and really light weight. Does not pill either which I was expecting it to do by looking at the consistency. I find this emulsion to be less irritating than some retinoids I’ve used in the past.

My skin can tolerate retinoids as I’ve slowly introduced my skin to them however I highly recommend The Ordinary Granactive Retinoid if you’re looking for a gentle approach. Please use your SPF if your going to be using these types of products.

You know you should be anyways ♥️ I purchased from beautybay. com for around $14. 00AUD. As always, The Ordinary product line is great value for quality product! #theordinary #deciem #influenster #beautybaycom.

IšverstiShow in original languageI noticed some are confused about the product. Granactive Emulsion is a formula, contains a teeny bit of Retinol alongside Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate (HPR), together = 2% of the bottle (very little, for a reason).

It’s very gentle, very minimal retinol, like an everyday product for dark spots, sunspots, hyperpigmentation, as well as anti-aging and fine lines. The formula is like ibuprofen vs acetaminophen, two different approach to the body for a solution.

It’s to work slowly overtime (so 2% is good!). My results: ~6 months, 2-3x/week before bed, a half bottle thru, I use SPF and avoid the sun like a vampire. Alongside the BHA/AHA Ordinary Peel, it’s decreased my dark spots, hyperpigmentation, and those sun freckles some asians like me get.

It is not oily, watery, hydrates the face, very plump in the morning seems like I did a water mask. If you don’t pair a good SPF, your skin will be more sensitive to the sun (undoing all the hard work and getting low results).

It’s not for everyone and that’s okay! (remember the ibuprofen analogy) it may work for you.

IšverstiShow in original languageEvery so often, a beautiful celebrity provides non-sponsored product recommendations. That was the genesis of discovering that Kim Kardashian has it in her skincare Arsenal.

Anything I can do to move a step closer to her flawless complexion is worth trying. At the low price point, experimentation is a no brainer. My skin is oily, acneic, and sensitive – the trifecta! Almost every retinoid is intolerable and results in a tomato red coloring.

Not the case with this product which means it must not be too strong. It won’t be one of my forever products like The Ordinary’s Niacinimide. But, if you’re looking for a lightweight retinol that’s gentle on skin, this product may be for you.

If you’re looking for a retinoid to pack a punch and transform skin, it probably isn’t for you. Given the low price point, nothing ventured, nothing gained.

Let’s start with the good. This is supposed to brighten your skin tone, reduce excess oil production, and decrease hyperpigmentation. And yes, it does all those things well. I’ve been using it for about a year, and it’s GREATLY reduced my sun damage, sallowness, and my skin tone has never looked better.

It layers well with makeup, and should’ve been a match made it heaven. But it broke me out. Bunches of tiny whiteheads that have almost no swelling, and are entirely on the top layer of skin, if that makes sense- and mostly only between my eyebrows and lower forehead.

So weird! I thought it was skin purging, but it never went away, and after using for a year, hasn’t gotten better. I know this product should work great for a lot of people. It does everything it promises.

But unfortunately that’s not all it does; for a good number of people, it causes weird breakouts- and I know I’m not alone in that because I’ve seen a lot of other reviews mention it. It was so close to being a five star product, but how is something supposed to improve the look of your skin when it also causes weird breakouts and associated redness with that? I’m going to try the Inkey List niacinamide serum and hope that it’s just something specific to the Ordinary’s formulation or the inclusion of Zinc.

I love niacinamide, and will stay faithful to it, but this specific relationship just wasn’t meant to be.

It’s not producing any results for me, and I have a difficult time understanding the hype. I’ve used it consistently for months now, having purchased 3 bottles. And I’m not even sure why, seeing as the first one didn’t do anything for me, let alone the second bottle.

I do wonder if my skin-type has anything to do with it, as from what I gather from the product description AND all the reviews, is that it seems to work well on oily blemish-prone skin. I’m combo-DRY, with large, clogged pores in my T-Zone, but I don’t really struggle with oiliness — not even in my T-Zone.

So maybe it’s just that it’s not suited for my skin-type? I don’t know. Though, from everything I read and hear, it should have done SOMETHING for my large, clogged pores. I’ll admit, I DO like the texture and consistency of this product, and I like applying it as my first step after toning, before other serums, as it leaves a polished feeling on my skin, and makes layering a breeze.

Sometimes I use it alone (without other serums) under moisturizer, as almost a primer for my makeup, and that works well, too. It’s almost as though it aids in polishing my skin-texture, but only temporarily.

Nothing longterm. I’ve been using TO’s Anhydrous Salicylic 2% Solution for two weeks with better results —- and, again, I think it’s everything to do with my skin-type, as my skin just thrives in the squalane of the SA product.

Ah, well, to each their own. I’d still recommend it as it seems to work well for others.

I don’t write many reviews- And this review is not based on results as of yet- I have such trouble with eye creams I always feel they are heavy, and they migrate which then irritates my eyes even when I estimate for the migration of product! Some how it always migrates into my eyes.

This product is serum consistency, 1 drop for each eye is PLENTY so this bottle will last forever but the application glides on, with no tugging which I experience with some heavier eye creams. This product does not migrate, sting or irritate my eyes.

It is cooling on application and I think it would provide further puff reduction if refrigerated. It’s not sticky unless you use to much. I’ve been using it a few days and I apply heavier at night then I do in the am.

I do see a reduction in puffiness after application but as far as reduction in discoloration or wrinkles it is to soon. It just feels so hydrating that even if I see minimal results I will use it as a base for another eye cream if needed.

As far as pilling I don’t wear makeup on the daily so I don’t know how it reacts under makeup but I find letting your skincare settle into pores for 20 min before makeup application generally prevents that.

I have fair sensitive maturing skin so this was also super gentle on my 42yo skin.

I have Graves’ disease and thyroid eye disease, which shows itself as big, puffy, blue-ish under-eye bags. I’m extremely self-conscious about it and have been avoiding meeting people or being in photographs since it started.

I’m mentioning this just so you can get an idea of how abnormally bad my eye bag situation is. I understand that no topical formula will ever take away these bags for good; whether you have a disease or not, any product that promises it can “fix” your under-eye bags is lying to you.

Currently, the only permanent solution to chronic under-eye bags is surgery. However, this stuff REALLY works to temporarily reduce the appearance of the puffiness, which means so, so much for me. Despite my conditions, my eyes actually look NORMAL until the late evening when I apply this in the morning.

It really, really does reduce under-eye puffiness. On days when I don’t use it, the puffiness is so prominent that sometimes people ask if I’ve been crying or if I was awake all night. But on days when I do use it, you couldn’t tell at a glance that anything is weird about my eyes.

Now I have one less thing to be self-conscious about. THANK YOU FOR THIS PRODUCT!.

i dont understand all the bad reviews — this stuff is amazing. i have very sensitive skin, particularly around my eyes so i have to be super careful with eye creams, but this one is the ONLY product that a) keeps my undereyes and eyelids moisturized, b) actually brightens up my eyes (i have really bad dark circles, ill post a before and after when i use it next tomorrow) and c) doesn’t irritate my eyes in any way (even if i accidentally get some in my eyes, it doesnt really sting or burn at all).

it also works great as an eyeshadow primer!! To be completely fair, i’m white, so maybe if there is a white film that stays when it dries, then my skin color may be a factor in that. so if that’s the case, either don’t use it if you have darker skin or be sure to massage it into your skin until it dries — do the latter regardless of skin color because it does take a little while to dry and who doesnt love a good eye massage? bottom line, this is the best eye serum/moisturizer ive ever used and trust me ive tried them all from all price points.

i see better results from this than i do from my $600 truffoire serum, even after one use. a must-buy if you ask me.

Finally, after a month of using it I have enough experience with this Retinol so I can write my honest review. I am very happy with this Retinol 05% In Squalane 30Ml. It has been gentle with my skin but gave lovely results.

The first week I have applied it every other day. I had no reaction to it, only a bit of peeling around my chin (my problematic area). The second week I used it almost every day but only in the evening as I was making sure to apply not only on my face but on my neck as well.

I had days when I noticed a bit more red spots or break-outs not on the usual places. But in general, my skin was calm and somehow brighter. That was the first difference I saw. My skin was radiant and glowing.

✨ The third week was when I started to notice my dark acne spots fading away. This positive progress motivates me to continue using it. I can honestly say that I am very happy with my results and in the future I will continue my Retinol journey once more with the Ordinary.

☀️ P. S. Throughout the whole time, I was listening to my instincts and I was applying moisturiser after the retinol. The La Roche Posay Hydraphase Ha Rich Hyaluronic Acid Face Cream is the best EVER- I have been using it for more than 3 years, it was recommended by my dermatologist and I loved it from the very beginning.

And of course, after the moisturiser I have applied sunscreen, don’t forget it! ☀️.

I am a HUGE fan of The Ordinary, wonderful no frill products for a great price point that really work! I have tried a slew of their serums have loved mostly all of them. This was my starter retinol and how I introduced my skin to it I would say I made a great first choice.

The retinol isn’t strong (0. 5%) and it makes a great non irritating introduction to it for beginners. The squalane is soothing and moisturizing so no need to worry about your skin cracking or drying out.

I used it once every few days and then over time I increased frequency so my skin slowly got used to it. I have sensitive skin with slight rosacea this was perfectly safe to add into my nightly routine.

I’ve now graduated from this formula use their 1% Retinol in Squalane. Don’t forget to wear sunscreen during the day while you use it as it can make your skin sensitive to the sun like with any retinol product.

I would recommend to anyone just starting out with retinols or anyone with sensitive skin looking to add a safe anti-aging serum into their routine.

I’ve been using this retinol for a while and I am in love with it. You just can’t beat the price, especially if you’re new into skincare or retinols. I’ve noticed a lot of positive changes since I started using TO 0.

5% retinol. I used it every night from the get go because I had already used moisturizing creams with retinol before (though percentages were smaller around 0. 1-0. 3), so my skin was already accustomed to it.

Most people expect miraculous changes overnight from retinols, but that’s just not possible. It takes 3-6 months of consistent use to notice the smallest of changes, and even more for deeper wrinkles or sun damage.

Even if you get irritation do not give up. Educate yourself on how retinol works and use it properly, please! My only complaint about The Ordinary retinol is that squalene is just so oily for my already oil/combination skin, so I have to use only about 3 or 4 drops; if I use more than that it’ll just make my face super oily.

But overall amazing product that is definitely worth the price! You won’t find anything better than this at this price.

I really enjoy the serum-like texture and hydrating feeling of this product. I had a bottle years ago and while I didn’t think it was bad, I don’t remember loving it either. I recently got two fresh bottles, one from the advent calendar and one with a GWP.

Knowing that this product will last forever, I gifted one to a friend. Anyway, having used it for a while now, I think it’s pretty good. Like I said, the light feeling is great and makeup goes on top like a dream.

My eye area is pretty sensitive and this hasn’t irritated my skin at all. I don’t have major dark circles so when it comes to brightening those, I’m not too sure if there’s much effect. I would however say that the feel the the product is quite cooling, which could result in some de-puffing.

It’s also very affordable compared to some other eye creams/serums, especially since it comes in a 30ml bottle, so I think it’s worth trying!.

Full disclosure: I use this in addition to other actives so I can’t say how transformative it is on its own. So, I purchased this because I know resveratrol is a great anti-aging/brightening ingredient and I wanted to include it in my nighttime routine without paying $$$ for it.

Caudalie uses it in almost all of their products but it’s so pricey. So I have been using it at night for about two months with my Retin-A (tretinoin) and I must say, I can see a difference. ( fyi- I have been using tretinoin for over a year so I can actually say I saw a difference) It helped to fade dark spots in conjunction with the tretinoin and my face looks smoother.

It does feel a little warm upon application as the other reviews have said but it doesn’t burn and it fades quickly. I have acne prone/dry skin and I have not experienced any breakouts. I would dare to say it may have improved my acne.

This product just doesn’t get enough love and it’s so underrated. It works well with almost every active and it soaks into the skin quickly. It may seem oily but it really does absorb. Now I do have dry skin so my skin may just soak this up quicker than someone with oily skin.

This product is a lifelong keeper for me and I’m so glad I gave it a try. It’s worth it folks!.

I will use this product for the rest of my life. I use it every night along with a cocktail of other products and have been using it for years! Ferulic acid is an amazing ingredient to even skin tone and I have definitely seen a difference over time.

What drew me to the product initially, though, was the Resveratrol. I had seen many expensive creams in Sephora that contained that ingredient and was enticed by their claims of anti-aging benefits. After learning more about these ingredients and how they can aid in preventing from skin damage caused by free radicals, I knew they would be a must in my skincare routine.

I use this with my adapalene gel from another company, TO vitamin C powder, and a very occlusive moisturizer from another brand at night and the results have been incredible. I am personally obsessed with antioxidant support in my skincare routine and use EUK 134 from TO in the morning.

Having both in my routine targeted at creating “perfect” skin and preventing aging (even though I am only 19) has been amazing! I started using this around 16 and have loved it and been consistent with it for years.

The Ordinary Resveratrol + Ferulic Acid #poshlifereviews (IG Poshlife40) 🧡Purchased this as I read somewhere that this is best combined with Retinol. According to @sephora website, the #resveratrol and #ferulicacid are very powerful anti oxidants.

So underrated from the brand but an excellent serum! 🧡This gives a slight oily feel to it, literally I just use 2-3 drops every time. It absorbs pretty well and doesn’t leave a sticky residue. 🧡I did notice some brightening effects esp when combined with my retinol cream.

Did not cause any irritation or breakouts. I will try combining this with my Vit C routine next time. 🧡Aside from this, i have repurchased @theordinary Niacinamide and Copper Peptide Buffet. I love their products because they are very affordable and effective.

Love the brand’s philosophy as well🥰 #skincare #theordinary #ordinary see#skinstagram #skinenthusiast #retinolmatch #retinol #sephora #serum #productreview #review #antioxidants #texturetuesday.

Daily staple! I started out with the Ordinarys original hyaluronic acid and liked it well enough but a friend told me to try this one. The consistency of this is very thin, honestly like water which I really like but some may not.

The original has more of a tacky feeling that I find isn’t great for layering and is harder to absorb and almost suds up like a cleaner if I put it on when my face is wet. I apply the marine hyaluronics after I’ve cleansed and misted my face liberally with the Avene thermal water (I have a review for this).

I pat dry my eyes and chin just so my face isn’t dripping but is still wet then apply this by patting it onto my face with my palms. THEN I roll the 2 together on my face with my jade roller that i keep in the freezer (pro-tip) until it’s all absorbed and the feeling is 👌 chefs kiss 💋 i then follow with moisturizer or Cerave Bebe (I also have a review for this).

One thing to note is that because this is such a thin formula it can come out really fast and spill out of your palm so be careful of that. I love the ordinary products though because they are so affordable and work amazingly if you know how to use them.

If you’re someone who occasionally gets facials with extractions or does them at home (would not recommend) it is absolutely 🔑 that your skin is HYDRATED. This allows for impurities to easily be removed and so there is less need to pick so scarring doesn’t occur 🥰.

*keep reading pls. good stuff is at the bottom but. i hate that ordinary does absolutely no discount or promotion no student discount no third parties pure evil, considering they know their audience is within the age range legible for discount there not already cheap and inclusive, otherwise i’d have nice skin and some money left in my bank they don’t have the best quality ingredients but most aren’t bothered by that but their formulas are hit or miss in terms of effectiveness and feel cheap also REPEATED INGREDIENTS.

hear me out, if you already own the natural moisturizing factors. DON’T BUY this. you don’t need it bcs it’s just the water version of the moisturizer ┐( ̄ヘ ̄)┌ * after using in routine skin is left radiant, hydrated and springs back.

i still think it’s better than their hyaluronic acid serum from the Ordinary because it doesn’t irritate and was the main product in my regime that repaired my skin barrier (after over 2 years of use) don’t squeeze into eyes, it stings, duh, but definitely use on damp skin, its glorious, every drop should be used because it’s the consistency of water.

i call it fancy water sometimes. my skin absorbs it quickly and after adding moisturizer i feel more of moisture is retained.

This product was a game changer for my skin and skin routine. Before I was educated on the difference between hydrating and moisturising I suffered with severe dry skin. I would have to moisturise several times a day to keep the flakey skin at bay.

I tried hyaluronic acid first but found it was still to drying for my skin (wrong climate) so switched to marine hyaluronics. After just two days of applying it morning and night my skin was feeling super soft, and had minimal flakey spots.

After a week I couldn’t believe the difference in my skin. It was the first time I didn’t have to keep moisturising during the day. Once in the morning after this product and at night and my skin felt amazing.

I now pair it with EUK 134 for an even more amazing feeling, finish with NMF+HA and SPF. My skin is no longer dull, dry and flakey. It’s now soft and has a natural glow that I can’t stop looking at.

Produit non viable, mais avec des connaissances avancées, les résultats peuvent être maximisés. Le produit lui-même a plus d’inconvénients que d’avantages, mais avec une connaissance suffisante de l’Ayurveda et de votre propre corps, les résultats peuvent être maximisés.

Parmi les inconvénients, il y a la composition elle-même, un produit avec une texture indésirable pour tout produit de beauté, car si le produit n’est pas appliqué correctement sur le visage, il laisse de petits films qui restent sur le visage, laissant une impression de saleté.

le produit doit être massé suffisamment sur le visage pour que cela ne se produise pas. Les résultats en eux-mêmes sont au rendez-vous, très médiocres, car cet acide est très inconstant et différents facteurs l’empêchent de se développer correctement sur la peau, nous donnant les résultats escomptés.

Cependant, j’ai réussi à le développer en obtenant de merveilleux résultats sur ma peau, me laissant une peau jeune et illuminée, à part cela, le produit n’a aucun autre avantage. Son rapport qualité – prix: le produit n’est pas viable et n’aura aucun résultat sur votre peau s’il n’est pas utilisé correctement, à la longue il est beaucoup plus cher, car pour un résultat maximum il faut prévoir: laver son visage deux fois par jour et pas avec le même lavage que celui utilisé pour l’enlever, il doit être crémeux et adapté pour un lavage de jour moins abrasif et plus doux, de même si un écran solaire anti-acné n’est pas utilisé, il est très probable que des boutons apparaissent.

De plus, après l’application, le visage ne peut être touché par aucun autre corps car le film désagréable apparaîtra. Par conséquent, l’application d’un écran solaire est presque un défi, dans lequel la plupart du temps nous échouerons.

Le produit maximise les résultats de l’Alpha Arbutin, mais seulement s’il est appliqué correctement, ce qui indique clairement qu’ici le produit vedette serait l’Alpha Arbutin et non la suspension azélaique.

En termes de beauté avancée, une hydratation du côlon aux herbes ayurvédiques est nécessaire pour maximiser les résultats avant l’application de ce produit simple à 7 euros. Alors à vous de décider.

J’ai senti les resultats au bout d’environ un mois d’utilisation matin et soir. Senti car ma peau est nettement plus agréable au toucher, plus lisse. Par contre, pas de différence au niveau de l’aspect visuel.

La texture est assez désagréable, très épaisse et s’étale mal mais la crème est vite absorbée et laisse un toucher sec. Il donne des résultats donc produit pas trop mal et le prix est très acceptable, cependant je ne rachèterai pas car je pense pouvoir trouver mieux.

Depuis que je l’utilise j’ai une peau unifiée, plus éclatante et presque aucun bouton. Produit miracle pour moi. Je n’ai aucun problème à ajouter d’autres produits pas dessus (écran solaire, BB crème).

Il faut juste poser la crème et attendre quelques minutes que la peau absorbe pour passer au produit suivant à appliquer en tapotant la peau.
