The Ordinary Haul

Happy Monday!

I have a haul to share today! I love writing up hauls but I don’t usually by a bunch of things from the same place at the same time.

I tried my first products for The Ordinary in early March, and I may have become slightly obsessed with them. They are a great skincare brand option for someone like me who wants great quality products but doesn’t have a lot of spare cash.

Glycolic Acid 7% Toning Solution 

When I saw this toner and read the description, my first thought was that it reminded me of the Pixi Glow Tonic, and I have since seen a few different people saying that they thought it was a good dupe. The Pixi glow Tonic being $29.00 for 250ml and this toner being $8.70 for 240ml, there is no question which is the better option price wise.

As I haven’t used the Glow Tonic in a long time I can’t really compare them, but I’m very interested to see how this one works after more use.

AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution 

I fully admit that I just bought this because of Leanne from LPage Beauty said she loved it. It’s also very different than anything I’ve put on my face before.

This is a face mask that removes dead skin cells and makes the skin look brighter and clearer.

100% Plant-Derived Squalane

I bought this and the next two products straight from The Ordinary’s regiment guide for blemished skin, unfortunately, I haven’t really had the chance to use them all together regularly enough for them to be effective.

This is supposed to be a hydration balancing oil and it meant to protect the skin and keep it supple.

Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1%

Like I said I haven’t used this enough to tell how well it works.

This says it reduces the appearance of blemishes and congestion and help balance visible aspects of sebum activity

Salicylic Acid 2% Solution 

I have tried using this both as a direct spot treatment and as all over treatment. I found that using it on my entire face dried out my skin, so I have been just using it directly on any spots I have.

High-Spreadability Fluid Primer 

This a purchase for me, I actually ordered two one for me and one for my sister. I have talked quite a bit about this primer since I first tried it, more about that (here).

I absolutely love this primer, it is so different for another I’ve tried and it feels so lovely on my face.

What are your favorite The Ordinary products? Have you tried any of these before?

Anna.
