The Ordinary Lactic Acid 5% + HA 30ml

New to acid exfoliation? This is the gentlest and safest place to start.

The Ordinary Lactic Acid 5% + HA is a mild exfoliating serum designed for beginners and those with sensitive skin. At 5% concentration it delivers effective but very gentle exfoliation, smoothing skin texture, brightening uneven skin tone and improving radiance without any harsh irritation or downtime. Hyaluronic Acid keeps skin hydrated and comfortable throughout the exfoliation process. It is the ideal introduction to AHA exfoliation for anyone who has never used acids before or whose skin is too sensitive for stronger formulas like the 10% version.

Mild. Beginner-friendly. Your first step into acid exfoliation, done right.

Ingredients & What They Do

Lactic Acid - 5%
At 5% this is a mild concentration of Lactic Acid, gentle enough for first-time acid users and sensitive skin types. It works by loosening the bonds between dead skin cells on the surface and encouraging natural cell turnover for fresher, brighter skin underneath. Lactic Acid also has unique natural moisturizing properties that hydrate skin as it exfoliates — making it significantly more comfortable than other AHAs at the same strength.

Hyaluronic Acid
Provides immediate surface hydration to counterbalance any exfoliation-related dryness. It keeps skin feeling soft, plump and comfortable throughout the process, ensuring skin feels nourished rather than stripped after each use.

How To Use

Step 1: Cleanse face thoroughly and pat skin completely dry

Step 2: Apply toner if part of your routine and allow to absorb

Step 3: Dispense a few drops onto fingertips

Step 4: Gently press and smooth evenly across face and neck avoiding the eye area

Step 5: Allow to absorb fully, do not rinse off

Step 6: Follow with moisturizer and always apply SPF 30 or higher the next morning

Pro Tips:

• Use in the evening only — AHAs increase sun sensitivity
• Start with once or twice per week and increase gradually as skin adjusts
• Never use on the same night as Retinoids or stronger exfoliants
• Once comfortable with 5% upgrade to Lactic Acid 10% + HA for stronger results
• SPF every morning is essential when using any AHA product

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the difference between 5% and 10% Lactic Acid?
A: Both exfoliate and brighten but at different strengths. The 5% is milder and ideal for beginners and sensitive skin. The 10% delivers faster and more visible results but is better suited for experienced acid users. Start with 5% and upgrade to 10% once skin has adjusted.

Q: How often should I use this?
A: Start with once or twice per week in the evening. Gradually increase to 3 times per week as skin builds tolerance over 3 to 4 weeks.

Q: Do I rinse it off?
A: No. This is a leave-on exfoliating serum. Leaving it on overnight allows Lactic Acid to work effectively while you sleep.

Q: Can I use this with Retinoids?
A: Not on the same night. Alternate between Lactic Acid nights and Retinoid nights to avoid over-exfoliation and skin irritation.

Q: Is this safe for very sensitive skin?
A: Yes. At 5% this is one of the mildest exfoliating serums available. Always patch test before first use and start with once per week to allow skin to adjust gradually.
