The functions of AHA and BHA
The active ingredients in The ordinary aha 30% + bha 2% peeling solution, AHA and BHA are involved in skin exfoliation. Indeed, it's not uncommon for the superficial skin layer to undergo drying or keratinization.
Lhe benefits of AHAs
Alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) exfoliate the skin's upper layer to ensure excellent radiance. This type of acid helps to smooth the skin, while calming redness and inflammation. It also shrinks pores, giving the skin a smooth, moist appearance.
The benefits of beta-hydroxy acids
Like AHA, BHAs exfoliate the epidermis, but in a different way because they are lipophilic, so they act deep within the pores. This combats pore congestion. As a result, imperfections become less noticeable over time, and skin radiance improves markedly. In addition, the formula's 30% of AHA and 2% of BHA optimizes the appearance of skin texture. When the solution is used continuously once a week or once every two weeks, the result is a real anti-aging effect.
How do I use The Ordinary Peeling Solution 30% AHA 2% BHA?
This product from The ordinary is used on dry skin after a mild cleanser. When applying, avoid the eye contour area and don't apply the mask for more than 10 minutes. After applying this mask, rinse your face thoroughly, not forgetting the sides of your nose. After applying this exfoliant, moisturize your skin thoroughly. I recommend using this mask once a week or once every two weeks.
Which product should I use after The Ordinary peel?
After applying any exfoliating masks, you need to use moisturizing and nourishing skincare products. We start with a moisturizing serum like Hyalu B5 if we want to stay at The Ordinary. After this serum, you can use the Natural moisturizing factor cream, which is perfect if you have normal, combination or oily skin, and finally you can apply a nourishing oil like 100% Cold-Pressed Virgin Marula Oil.
Which products should Peeling solution 30% AHA 2% BHA not be mixed with?
This type of product should not be used if you are new to retinol-based skin care, have sensitive skin or have recently been exposed to the sun. In general, and particularly with this peeling solution, do not apply cosmetic products containing peptides or retinol, which could be deactivated by the acid PH.

Beauty decoded's opinion
The Ordinary's dark red solution with 30% AHA and 2% BHA contains glycolic, lactic, tartaric, citric and salicylic acids for maximum effectiveness. This product is very powerful, so use it sparingly, no more than once a week, and I recommend using it for no more than 5 minutes at first. This peel deactivates with water, so you need to rinse your face thoroughly to neutralize it. The real benefit of this product is that it improves skin texture, improving the appearance of pores and reducing blackheads, and has an anti-aging effect, reducing wrinkles and pigmentation spots on the face. I can recommend the use of this peel if all the precautions I detail below are applied.
What are the alternatives?
What are the alternatives to The Ordinary Peeling solution 30% AHA 2% BHA%?
If you're new to skincare, I wouldn't recommend using this mask at first. Instead, I recommend a less powerful exfoliant such as 7% glycolic acid toning solution from The ordinary.
You can also use masks from other marques cosmetics, such as Paula's choice or Drunk Elephant.

It's the only exfoliant I've ever used in my life, as I've never been into this system, and I was wrong because the texture of the skin changes. At first, I was strangely surprised: even after 5 minutes, there was no tingling, nothing! It's true that I have mature Kevlar skin, but as the product is used over the weeks, it stings quite a bit, certainly due to the cleanser used beforehand, but it's bearable. I only use it once every 15 days, and it's true that you get baby-soft skin afterwards, and then a chemical scrub that you only leave on for a few minutes, frankly that's top-notch!

A rudimentary formulation for easy application and effortless rinsing. The best peel on the market.

This product from the ordinary is a perfect exfoliant, to be used once a week, but be careful with the pause time, as it can irritate very quickly. After applying this product, the skin is super-smooth and clean, perfect for applying serums.

I've been using this product for over a year whenever I need it. I react very well to it and can leave it on for a good ten minutes without any problem.
Rinse well.

A simple, effective product that refines skin texture and evens out the complexion. I've been using it twice a week for 1 year. There's a slight tingling sensation on application and you have to respect the pause time of 10 minutes, no more. My skin is sensitive, but this product doesn't irritate it. I recommend this product đź‘Ť
