It didn't cause any reactions to my skin - it's definitely a product that you would need to purchase again in order to see results.

Initially, I was skeptical due to the high price point but it was well worth the money. Within 2 weeks of consistent use (every morning), my skin appeared visibly brighter, was less irritated and it calmed down my oiliness. There was also some fading on my dark spots.

This product is recommended for use twice a week. I bought it because it promised regulation of sebum production. My skin broke out the times I used it so I had to stop. It is possible that it was incompatible with another product I was using but it just didn’t work for me.

I like all the other products of the Ordinary, but I can’t use niacinamide in the morning, only in the evening. It makes my make-up look blotchy, and peels off my foundation. I can only use it in the evening.

I know a lot of people love this product, but it just didn’t work for me. After using this for a few weeks I noticed small bumps on my forehead. When I took it back out of my routine the bumps went away, and I’ve been scared to reintroduce the product. I have acne-prone skin and recently finished up accutane so my skin is also a bit dry. No other products from the ordinary have caused issues, and I use their rose hip seed oil every day and buffet/lactic acid at least once a week. I know niacinamide is supposed to be a staple in skincare, but for me this product in particular just isn’t it.

As a combo/oily girl I needed something that would work on my skin alone or under make up without sliding off my face and this is it! Applies like a dream and doesn’t leave a weird white cast like some SPFs tend to do. Doesn’t pill under make up either and is a dream to reapply as well. The only thing that put me off as I need to wash my hands after applying as it makes them feel sticky yet it doesn’t feel stick on my face… who knows how that works! But I have repurchased countless times and always will. Recommend to everyone.

I got this as a sample and found it perfect for my PCOS breakouts. It kept my skin hydrated, breakouts to a minimum and my skin felt soft. I used this daily after cleansing my face, then when make up free for a few days. Even after wearing make up my breakouts were still minimal.

I use this every so often I get a breakout and i'm not joking, you it clears my skin up every time! I can't be without this product. It doesn't dry your skin up in anyway or cause any irritation like some acne products do. I have literally been using this for years and will be devastated if I couldn't get it anymore

This is a great everyday SPF option. It’s very lightweight, leaves no white cast or greasy residue. The texture is very smooth and it feels much less likely to clog up my skin compared to other sunscreens I’ve tried. It also performs well under my makeup.

The La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo+M Moisturiser is a great pick if you have oily or acne-prone skin. Here's why it's awesome: 1. **Matte Hydration**: It hydrates your skin without making it look or feel greasy, which is perfect if you struggle with excess oil. 2. **Acne Fighting**: Packed with ingredients like salicylic acid and niacinamide, it helps prevent breakouts and calms down any existing spots. 3. **Refines Pores**: This moisturiser also works to minimise the appearance of pores, giving your skin a smoother look. 4. **Controls Oil**: Throughout the day, it helps control oil production, keeping your skin feeling balanced. 5. **Gentle and Soothing**: Despite its acne-fighting powers, it's gentle and won't irritate sensitive skin. To use it, just apply a thin layer to clean skin in the morning and/or evening. You can wear it alone or under makeup. Stick with it, and you'll likely see clearer, happier skin over time.

I really like this product because I suffered a lot from pimples I used this for 6 weeks and it has brought a lot of change my pimples are completely dehydrated and I didn't get new pimples anymore I recommend this product because it gives very fast results

My sister recommended I try this. It feels really good and bubbles up well. It is quite affordable plus really good if you have sensitive skin. Also dermatologists help develop it. It feels nicer than majority of cleansers. I highly recommend that product.

This serum is amazing, cleared my dark spots and even my skin tone, improves hydration, soothes the skin’s and has anti aging properties. It’s light weight and not sticky, easy to blend into the skin. Fades hyperpigmentation and even skin tone. I’ll definitely recommend.

i just loved the salicylic acid 2% by minimalist ...i use it every other nights skincare routine and i can see it visibly squeezed my open pores and dark spots has gone as well....i love the consistency of this serum not too thick which makes the skin to breathe

At first, I loved the texture, so lightweight. I've never liked a thick SPF. It was so smooth and easy to apply. Once applied I noticed after a while there was a slight white cast left behind as well as this white paste developed from the SPF. This SPF may work better if it's applied in layers. Room for improvement.

Retinol is Vitamin A for your skin, one of the most effective beauty products for signs of aging. Retinol speeds up your skin cell turnaround, smooths fine lines & wrinkles & helps fade dark spots & blemishes. Some people can be nervous when introducing retinol into their skincare routine because of some of the side effects (like irritation & breakouts) but if you use it correctly & consistently, you'll love it! Retinol beginners should start with a low percentage & slowly increase the percentage over time to work out what level is best for their skin. I started my retinol journey months ago & am still on 0.5% as the bottle lasts ages, I'll try increasing the percentage when I make my next retinol purchase. Always cleanse before applying retinol & always moisturise after. It's best to apply retinol in your evening skincare routine. Make sure you use SPF in your morning skincare routine, especially if using retinol at night, as it can increase your chances of sunburn. You should also check your other skincare products can be used with retinol as some products can't be mixed with it, such as salicylic acid & glycolic acid. Also, keep your retinol in the fridge so it doesn't lose its effectiveness. I love The Ordinary skincare products, they last ages & I always see results after using them. I also use their rose hip seed face oil & hyaluronic acid daily.

Having reached a certain age I started researching retinol. I tried a few well known brands but wasn't really seeing the results I was hoping for. Then I came across the Medik8 crystal retinal range. I started at the lowest strength & worked my way up to this one. I have not been disappointed. These are so gentle but effective. It's like applying a luxury serum. I have had no irritation, no purging & no worsening of my fine lines 👌
