The Ordinary AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution 1 oz

Transform dull, congested, uneven skin into a visibly smoother, brighter, and more refined complexion with The Ordinary Peeling Solution, one of the most viral and highly talked about exfoliating treatments in modern skincare. Powered by a potent blend of 30% Alpha Hydroxy Acids and 2% Beta Hydroxy Acid, this advanced weekly exfoliating peel is designed to deeply resurface the skin, unclog pores, improve uneven texture, reduce the appearance of blemishes, and restore radiant glow in just minutes.

Inspired by professional chemical peels, this high strength exfoliating solution combines Glycolic Acid, Lactic Acid, Tartaric Acid, Citric Acid, and Salicylic Acid to exfoliate multiple layers of the skin surface while also penetrating deeper into pores to dissolve excess oil, debris, and congestion. The result is skin that looks visibly clearer, smoother, softer, and more luminous with continued use.

Unlike many traditional exfoliators that rely on harsh scrubbing particles, The Ordinary AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution uses chemical exfoliation to help encourage faster skin cell turnover without physical abrasion. This makes it especially popular among skincare enthusiasts looking to target dullness, acne marks, rough texture, blackheads, uneven tone, enlarged pores, and early signs of ageing.

The formula is also enriched with Tasmanian Pepperberry Derivative to help reduce irritation associated with acid use, along with Hyaluronic Acid Crosspolymer and Vitamin B5 to provide hydration and support skin comfort after exfoliation. Black Carrot Extract adds antioxidant protection to help defend against environmental stressors while promoting healthier looking skin over time.

Its lightweight blood red serum texture glides smoothly across the skin and rinses away cleanly after use, leaving the complexion looking fresher, brighter, and more refined. Many users love the immediate post peel glow and smoother texture, while long term users frequently report improved clarity, reduced breakouts, softer skin, and visibly faded post acne marks with consistent use.

Whether used as a weekly glow treatment, pore clearing exfoliator, texture refining peel, or brightening resurfacing solution, The Ordinary AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution delivers professional inspired exfoliation from the comfort of home.
