    Good product

    My skin type is dry combination and it thanks me! I chose the version with oil, so this one, because especially in winter my skin needs care in addition to exfoliation. Impurities have clearly decreased. I use it alternately with retinol (not at the same time!). #lykoreview

    3/10

    I really hoped this one would work for me. Since it's a decently strong acid and i had seen reviews of the other one (same brand, clear botle) saying it was too strong and caused a lot of irritation i thought this would work well for my sensitive skin. While it dose not sting and mostly just feels like oil on tbe face for me it did not do anything, with very consistent usage i saw no results, however when i picked up the clear bottle, results showed within a few days for me. + very gentle + cheep + works well to keep legs smooth - sits on top of the skin dose not absorb - small to no results - very much only an evening product - dose not play well with most other products - botle kinda leakes

    Gentle on the skin

    The Ordinary's "regular" BHA serum irritated the skin on my face. I get the same results with this formula, minus the irritation.

    Something went wrong

    Had two weeks without reactions and then developed bumps under the skin on my cheeks. I have never had strong reactions to products before, but these pimples then turned into three acne scars. This despite the fact that I stopped using the product and did not change my skincare routine otherwise :(

      Hey Minna! 🤗 Thank you for reviewing, we appreciate it 🙏 So sad that you had such a reaction. It's hard to say exactly what it depends on, but my best tip for finding the best products for your skin is to do the skin test that I link to here below. Then our skin therapists will tailor a skincare routine for you ❤⬇ lyko.com/sv/beauty-scan/hudtestet Take care and have a nice day 💕☀

      Hey there! Yes, The Ordinary Salicylic Acid 2% Anhydrous Solution can be used together with La Roche-Posay Effaclar Cleansing Gel "+M, but here are a few things to be aware of: 🌿 Effaclar Cleansing Gel "+M contains active ingredients that deeply cleanse and regulate sebum production, making it super for oily and blemished skin. 🌿 The Ordinary Salicylic Acid 2% Anhydrous Solution is a milder, oil-based variant of salicylic acid that exfoliates the skin and helps with blemishes without drying it out. Tips for use: ✔️ First cleanse with Effaclar Cleansing Gel "+M and pat the skin dry. ✔️ Then apply The Ordinary Salicylic Acid 2% (2-3 drops are enough). ✔️ Finish with a good moisturizer – preferably one that soothes, like La Roche-Posay Toleriane Ultra Fluid or CeraVe PM Facial Moisturizing Lotion. ✔️ Always use SPF during the day, as salicylic acid can make the skin more sensitive to the sun. If you have sensitive skin, it might be wise to start gently – for example, every other night – to avoid irritation. 💕

    Strange smell?

    I received this product today and I'm really excited to try it, but when I smell the product, I think it smells a bit rancid. Like old skincare products smell. Is this normal or is there something wrong with mine?

      Hello! Oh, that sounds crazy! The product has a scent that reflects its natural ingredients and active substances, which can be perceived as something different from traditional scented products. If you suspect that there is something wrong with your product, you should definitely register a complaint with us! Take care!

    Mix with moisturizer?

    I reacted the last time I tried this, I went way too hard in. Could it be worth mixing it into your face cream at the beginning to acclimate the skin?

      Hey Tine! ✨🤍 I recommend that you get your skin used to the product by starting with a small amount in the evening. Use it once a week for about four weeks🤗 If your skin can handle it, you can gradually increase the usage to 2 times a week and then increase based on what your skin tolerates. If your skin reacts again, it might not be a product for you 🤍 Take care!🥰

    Salicylic Acid and Toner - the right application order

    I'm a bit unclear on whether to use this before or after the toner?

      Hey, Good that you asked! The product is meant to be used as an overnight mask to be left on the skin 💖 I recommend using it on clean skin in the evenings, after which you can apply your regular night cream if your skin still feels like it needs it afterwards. If your skin feels dry, you can try applying a neutral, hydrating toner underneath this 🤭 However, to avoid any unwanted reactions, I recommend paying special attention to ensure that there are no active ingredients in other products being used, such as active acids or retinol. Have a lovely day!

    Perfect product

    The product has been good. Even though it has an oily consistency, it doesn't make the skin greasy even during the day. The skin is clearly smoother and more even after starting this use. At first, the skin did push out impurities until it got used to it.
