The Ordinary – Glycolic Acid 7% Toning Solution So, this way, I am exfoliating my skin using acids every single night while trying to balance between a strong acid and a milder one. I still have Kaya Acne Free toner, which contains Mandelic acid, another great exfolliant but milder than Glycolic acid. It literally stings whenever I put this on my skin.

I have not started using LHA so it will be excluded from today’s article. I got my hands on The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Toning Solution, Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% Blemish formula, Granactive Retinoid 2% Emulsion, LHA 5% & LHA 10%. This is the first time I am using The Ordinary products. ![]() They have several products such as Retiniods(varying in strength), Vitamin C, Direct Acids, Antioxidants, Hydrators, Sun care & Hair care.

The Ordinary – The Abnormal Company The Ordinary Skin Care Regimen The Ordinary – Glycolic Acid Toning Solution, Niacinamide + Zinc, Granactive Retinoid Emulsion reviewdi The brand has several lines for beauty concerns available at very reasonable prices. The Ordinary is a brand from DCIEM which came into existence back in 2013 only. This introduction has been quite gradual because I did not want to overdo it, which I am quite prone to. Recently I also introduced The Ordinary skin care line which is mostly acids. If you remember, I have been running clear of clogged pores and hence acne since I started using Globus Purifying Glycolic and Salicylic Acid face wash and Kaya Acne Clear toner. I also discovered that instead of promoting BHA as the savior of acne prone skin, AHA (Alpha Hydroxy Acids) do better. Acid could be good, specially for a broken skin. Within last few months, I realized, Acne prone skin, does not need mild care because it is under attack of p-bacteria, a bacteria that feeds upon clogged pores. I remember how clogged my skin had been all these years when I was trying to be as mild with my skin as I could. Natural Remedies did not work for me to great extent to control acne.
