The Ordinary Direct Acids AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution

The Ordinary AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution is a high-strength, red-tinted facial peel that combines Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs) and Beta Hydroxy Acids (BHAs) for deep exfoliation, improving skin texture, radiance, and clearing congestion, but it's for experienced users only due to high acid concentration (pH 3.6) and requires careful use (max 10 mins, 1-2x/week) on clean, dry skin, avoiding eyes and sun exposure.

Key Ingredients & Benefits:
AHAs (Glycolic, Lactic, Tartaric, Citric Acids): Exfoliate the skin's surface for brighter, more even tone.
BHA (Salicylic Acid): Deeply cleans pores, helping with congestion and blemishes.
Tasmanian Pepperberry: Reduces irritation and redness.
Hyaluronic Acid Crosspolymer & Vitamin B5: Soothe and support skin comfort.

How to Use:
Cleanse & Dry: Wash face with a gentle cleanser and pat completely dry (no wet skin).
Apply Evenly: Use fingertips to apply a thin layer to face/neck, avoiding eye area.
Max 10 Mins: Leave on for no more than 10 minutes; start with 5 mins if new to acids.
Rinse: Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.
Frequency: Use once or twice a week in the evening.
Aftercare: Skip other exfoliants on application days; use sunscreen daily as this increases sun sensitivity.

Important Precautions:
Not for Beginners: Only for experienced acid exfoliators; avoid on sensitive, peeling, or compromised skin.
Patch Test: Recommended before first use.
Sun Sensitivity: High risk of sunburn; use SPF and protective clothing.
