I Finally Tried The Ordinary Skincare, Here’s What I Got

I’ve had my eye on The Ordinary for a while now and finally decided to purchase a few items since they had free shipping and I needed some vitamin c anyway. 


Bedsides the Vitamin C, which came in a pure powder form, I also got Absorbyl Glycoside Solution 12% and Squalene Cleanser. Here’s the 4-1-1 on each item:

100% L-Abscoebic Acid Powder: Aka vitamin c that comes with a mini scooper. Vitamin C is great for brightening skin, removing dark spots, and evening skin tone. 

Ascorbyl Glucoside Solution 12%: This is to be mixed with the vitamin c powder. While this has a vitamin c derivative, this is a water based serum that also helps brighten skin and targets uneven skin tone, antioxidant support, and signs of aging as stated in the description.

Squalene Cleanser: This cleanser removes makeup but also helps with hydration. 

I use the L-Absorbic Acid Powder mixed with the Absorbyl Glucoside Solution during the day. A little bit goes a long way, so there’s no need for overdoing it. So far, I’ve had a small breakout on my cheek, probably due to my skin being introduced to something new (I noticed something similar upon using a new retinol). There’s a slight tinging sensation from the powder. So far, I have no issues and I’ve yet to use the Squalene Cleanser. 

I’ll share an update on how I like the products after consistent use.
