The Ordinary Lactic Acid 5% + HA is a mild exfoliating treatment that uses lactic acid to gently remove dead skin cells and improve skin texture. This 5% formulation is designed to address uneven tone, textural irregularities, and fine lines with minimal strength.

Lactic acid is an alpha hydroxy acid that works on the skin surface to exfoliate. This particular formula includes a Tasmanian pepperberry derivative to help reduce irritation and sensitivity that can occur with acid exfoliation. The pepperberry extract is plant-derived and may vary in colour seasonally, which is normal and does not affect performance.

Key Ingredients

• Lactic Acid: an alpha hydroxy acid that gently exfoliates the skin surface to improve texture and appearance
• Sodium Hyaluronate Crosspolymer: a hydrating agent that helps maintain skin moisture while exfoliating
• Tasmannia Lanceolata Fruit/Leaf Extract: a plant-derived ingredient that helps reduce irritation associated with chemical exfoliation
• Glycerin: a humectant that supports skin hydration during and after treatment

Directions for Use

• Apply once per day, preferably in the evening. You can dilute this product with other treatments to reduce its strength while your skin builds tolerance.
• Do not use on sensitive, peeling or compromised skin. Avoid direct contact with eyes. Use only on unbroken skin and limit frequency or duration of contact if you experience any irritation.
• Perform a patch test before first use. Apply a small amount to a clean area of skin on your upper forearm, keep it dry, and rinse after 24 hours. Do not use the product if you notice redness, burning, itching, blistering or any irritation.
• If irritation occurs during use, stop using the product and consult a physician. Keep out of reach of children.

Warnings

• This product contains an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) that may increase your skin's sensitivity to the sun and raise the possibility of sunburn. Use a sunscreen with adequate protection, wear protective clothing, and limit sun exposure while using this product and for a week afterwards.

Remarks

• While lactic acid can produce visible results quickly, indirect forms of skin exfoliation are often preferred over direct acid applications due to the potential for inflammation and sensitivity associated with acids.
