help The Ordinary AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution FAQ

How long should The Ordinary AHA 30% + BHA 2% peel stay on the face?

The Ordinary instructs users to leave it on for no more than 10 minutes and then rinse thoroughly. It should be applied to clean, dry skin and kept away from the eyes.

Can this peeling solution be used on sensitive or damaged skin?

The product is a strong combination of 30% alpha hydroxy acids and 2% beta hydroxy acid, so it is not intended for compromised, peeling, or sensitive skin. Patch testing before broader use is especially important with this concentration.

Can I use retinol or another acid in the same routine as this peel?

Layering it in the same routine with retinoids, direct acids, or other potent exfoliants can increase irritation. A simpler routine with cleanser and moisturizer is the safer pairing on peel nights.

Why is sunscreen important after using the AHA 30% + BHA 2% peel?

Alpha hydroxy acids can make skin more sensitive to sunlight after use. A broad-spectrum sunscreen and reduced sun exposure are therefore important during treatment and afterward.
