love it
I've been using this for over a year now and I love it. But I feel that sometimes with many skincare products stop working over time like your skin gets immune and doesn't help that much. however, I've changed my routine and use it two a week and it has helped my clogged pores and I use it as a spot treatment and it sucks everything out. would recommend it for anyone with acne but of course, use it if you actually need it and if it fits your skin type.

I was SO...
I was SO nervous about trying the Salicylic Acid that I actually waited months before finally purchasing a bottle! I don't know about other people, but I would break out so bad when using another product containing this that I honestly & truly thought I was allergic to it & couldn't use it!?!? I guess it was the formulations the "other" brands used because THIS does NOT cause me to break out at all!!!! I am so happy that I found this product & decided to finally try it!!! My medicine cabinet is almost all full of The Ordinary skincare products...nothing "ordinary" about this brand!!!! You guys & gals rock!!!!!!!

Spot saviour
A drop of this on my spots used to help sooo much at night and kept my skin clearer for longer. But I am starting to lose my mind that it's been so long since it was last available and my replacements just don't quite compare to be honest..... please give us a date or ANY sort of hint when it may be available, yours sincerely... everyone X
