The Ordinary Lactic Acid 10% + Hyaluronic Acid 2% is a high-strength exfoliating serum designed to smooth uneven skin texture, brighten dull skin, and reduce the look of fine lines. With lactic acid for gentle exfoliation and hyaluronic acid for hydration, this AHA serum for dry skin is best for those with sensitive skin seeking a balance of resurfacing and soothing care.
The Ordinary is known for simple and effective formulas for skin. The Ordinary Lactic Acid 10% + HA is a carefully balanced AHA serum that provides visible exfoliation without stripping your skin. Lactic acid works to loosen dead skin cells on the surface of the skin. It is revealing a smoother and more radiant complexion. What makes this serum stand out is its blend with hyaluronic acid, which draws in moisture and keeps skin feeling moisturized. This dual action makes it a hydrating exfoliant with hyaluronic acid, perfect for individuals with dry or sensitive skin who want results without harshness.
The formula also contains Tasmannia Lanceolata Fruit/Leaf Extract. It is a botanical ingredient known for reducing signs of irritation. This means you get the benefits of a chemical exfoliant for sensitive skin with an added calming effect, making it suitable for those prone to redness or discomfort from stronger acids. Whether you’re targeting uneven skin tone, dullness, fine lines, or dry patches, this serum supports overall skin renewal. Its gentle yet effective formula makes it the best lactic acid serum for skin texture improvement and an excellent choice for anyone looking for a vegan exfoliating serum that fits easily into a daily routine.
You can, but it is better to start slowly if you are new to exfoliating acids. Begin by using it 2–3 times a week and see how your skin responds. If your skin feels like it is good, you can gradually increase to daily use.
Yes, this serum is made with soothing Tasmanian pepperberry to help reduce irritation. It’s often well-tolerated by people with sensitive skin. Still, it’s always a good idea to do a patch test before applying it all over your face.
It is best not to use it with retinol, vitamin C, or other exfoliating acids in the same routine. Combining too many active ingredients irritates the skin. You can alternate them on different nights instead.
The ideal time to use it is in the evening after cleansing your face. Follow it up with a moisturizer to lock in hydration. Don’t forget to apply sunscreen during the day, as exfoliation makes your skin more sensitive to the sun.
Yes, this serum is 100% vegan and cruelty-free. It doesn’t contain any animal-derived ingredients. That makes it a great choice for those who prefer ethical skincare.
