Glycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating Toner, Brightening and Smoothing Daily Toner for More Even-Looking Skin Tone

I didn't buy this just for my face. I've been using it on my scalp and underarms, and it's worked really well for both. On my scalp, it helped break down the product buildup and flakiness, so my scalp feels cleaner and my hair feels lighter. On my underarms, it exfoliates away the dead skin and residue that were trapping odor, and my pit smell has improved a lot. My underarms also feel smoother. I apply it with a cotton pad a few times a week, not daily. It can sting a little if your skin is sensitive or freshly shaved, so start slow and don't use it right after shaving. Definitely worth it for the price. Would buy again

I originally bought The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Toner for my skincare routine, but I started using it on my scalp for dandruff and was pleasantly surprised! It helps gently exfoliate the scalp and remove some of the buildup and flakes, leaving my scalp feeling cleaner and refreshed. I like that it’s easy to apply and doesn’t leave my hair feeling heavy or greasy. I’ve found it especially helpful when my scalp feels like it has product buildup or needs a deeper cleanse. Just a little goes a long way, so the bottle lasts quite a while. It has become such a useful addition to my scalp-care routine and has really helped me with flakes and buildup.

I LOVE THIS. I always put this on my knees, elbows, legs, neck, armpits, and everywhere. This is magic it makes you smooooth. By time you will see difference and you exfoliate the dead skin so well. It makes your skin brighter and more youthful. I love the refreshing feeling you get. Also use a nice butter or lotion after using it.

Believe the hype! It's true! I read about this on BuzzFeed. Then I read through the copious reviews singing this products praises. I have used & continue to use many Ordinary products (hyaluronic acid & niacinamide) and have found that they do a commendable job for the price. So marrying the fantastic reviews with the great brand meant that trying this glycolic acid was a no-brainer. The bottle is substantially larger than the other Ordinary products. The top can be adjusted to dispense the perfect amount of product. The directions say to use a cotton ball or clean hands. I opted for my hands to reduce waste in both product and cotton balls. While the product didn't affect my hands, I can say that I felt a mild tingling on my freshly cleansed face. I felt that there was definitely some positive impact happening! I followed with my favorite retinol, snail serum, and then a PM moisturizer. I repeated this routine for about 3 days when my neighbor remarked how fresh and dewy my skin appeared. Why, thank you! So of course I ran inside after our convo to see what she was seeing...DAAAANG! Now for true and genuine reference, I'm not trying to reverse aging. I might be trying to slow the process but I'm not a cosmetic procedure gal - NOT THERE'S ANYTHING WRONG with that!! NO judgement on my part. I have crazy skin after my child was born; cystic acne, melasma, fresh wrinkles and laugh lines. Thee literal and figurative trifecta of facial derm issues 🫩😮‍💨 It is what it is. I should probably see a dermatologist for a retinol Rx but...time and money...I should also be drinking FAR more water. I do use a daily mineral SPF and wear hats when I know I'll have prolonged sun exposure. So when husband remarked (that same day, no less) about how my skin was glowing, I knew that it HAD to be the direct result of this amazing, effective product! It was the only thing I changed! My DEEP forehead wrinkles aren't gone. Steamrolling wouldn't take those bad boys out...but they are definitely softened. And my splotchy melasma? Reduced substantially! The LaRoche Posay Mela B3 didn't reduce the spots like this glycolic acid did (though, in retrospect, this may have helped the absorption of the B3? 🤔) Regardless, I think that this product is a worthwhile try for healthy, glowing skin. ❗️EWG rated this a 3/10 (lower numbers are favorable) on their website, btw! AND, from what I've read, it is safe to use during pregnancy so you know it's a legit product that is safe and effective🫶

The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% has been a great addition to my skincare routine. I like that it helps improve the overall texture of my skin and leaves it feeling noticeably smoother and refreshed. It’s also versatile enough to use on areas beyond the face, which is a nice bonus. A little goes a long way, and the bottle lasts quite a while. Definitely a great option if you’re looking for an affordable exfoliating product!

“I’ve been using this toner for a while and I really like it. It leaves my skin feeling smoother and refreshed, and it helps improve the overall texture of my skin. It can be a little strong, so I recommend starting slowly if you have sensitive skin. Overall, a good product for exfoliating and keeping skin looking fresh.”

I used this on my face before bed last night and wow! Woke up and my face was noticeable less dry and flakey, softer smoother. I had a massive sudden breakout due to menopausal hormones and I've fighting painful acne and blackheads on my chin. Using Salicylic face was and spot treatment was drying my face and making it looked cracked, angry, flaky,and leather like which was in turn causing my black heads. Added hyaluronic acid to moisturize and it helpped but wasn't enough. The Glycolic acid toner was the trick! My face looks better in one night tha it has in the past two weeks. Sold! I love The Ordinary products!

Works for literally everything. Licensed Esthi and i recommend this a LOT. Helps ingrowns, dark underarms and bikini area. I love it, just make sure you shut it it will spill

This Glycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating Toner from The Ordinary is a game changer! I noticed the results instantly – my skin looked brighter, smoother, and more even after just one use. It gently exfoliates without feeling harsh or stripping. My pores look smaller and my texture has improved so much. Honestly, it works wonders! Already planning to repurchase. If you're looking for an effective, budget-friendly toner, this is the one! 🙌🏿✨🧴💖

Je n'avais pas confiance dans le produit, je l'utilise depuis un mois et il m'a fait disparaître les taches sur mon visage. Je le recommande

Excellent product totally worth the price. I use it for body acne and if prevents new breakout and also lightens the marks. Use it for 2 to 3 months to see the effect. A must-have if you're acne prone like me!

Ma fille utilise ce tonique à l'acide glycolique depuis peu de temps et constate déjà que sa peau devient de plus en plus belle ! Elle s'en sert pour traiter son acné, localisée principalement sur le visage et dans le dos. C'est un produit actif très efficace pour lisser les imperfections, mais pour que cela fonctionne bien sans abîmer la peau, voici notre retour d’expérience et les conseils essentiels à savoir : Pour l'acné du visage : • La patience au début : Ne paniquez pas si de nouveaux boutons sortent les premières semaines. C’est l’effet de « purge », l'acide fait ressortir ce qui était coincé sous la peau avant de la nettoyer proprement. • Douceur absolue : Il faut impérativement bannir les gommages à grains à côté, sous peine d’irriter la peau et d'aggraver l'acné. Ne surtout pas l'appliquer sur des boutons percés ou à vif pour éviter les brûlures et les taches de cicatrice. Pour l'acné du dos (l'astuce pratique) : • La peau du dos étant plus épaisse, elle supporte très bien le produit. Pour l'appliquer facilement seule, l'astuce est de transférer un peu de lotion dans un petit flacon spray pour pouvoir la vaporiser après la douche sur une peau bien sèche. Les règles d'or indispensables : • Uniquement le soir sur peau propre et sèche (2 à 3 fois par semaine pour commencer, c'est largement suffisant). • Crème solaire obligatoire le lendemain matin ! Ce produit rend la peau très sensible au soleil. Sans protection, vous risquez des taches ou des coups de soleil. En résumé, c'est un produit formidable et très économique pour lutter contre l'acné si on respecte bien son mode d'emploi. Nous recommandons sans hésiter !

This one is the absolute OG of glycolic acid! It’s super easy to apply and gives a noticeable brightening effect without burning or irritating my skin. 🧴✨ Always apply sunscreen after using this! Glycolic acid makes your skin way more sensitive to the sun, so if you skip SPF, your skin will actually end up getting darker instead. ​The only real downside? Man, it is painfully expensive for the wallet... but it honestly works! 😭💸
