The OrdinaryGlycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating Toner, Brightening and Smoothing Daily Toner for More Even-Looking Skin Tone, 8.1 Fl Oz

Let me start by saying this: if you’ve ever looked in the mirror and thought, “Why is my skin just... dull?”, this toner might be what you’re missing. The Ordinary's Glycolic Acid 7% Toner is kind of a cult favorite—and for good reason.I started using it a few times a week at night, and within the first two weeks, I noticed my skin was smoother, less congested around my nose and chin, and definitely more radiant. It's not a dramatic overnight transformation, but it's like your skin slowly wakes up and starts behaving better.The feel? Slightly tingly at first—especially if you're new to acids. It's watery, almost like a micellar toner, and absorbs quickly. I apply it after cleansing and before serums or moisturizer. I don’t rinse it off.What it actually helped with:Uneven tone – My cheeks had some mild discoloration from old acne marks. They faded faster than usual.Texture – It gently exfoliates, so my skin feels much softer and looks smoother.Breakouts – It doesn’t prevent them entirely, but it definitely helps keep pores cleaner and reduces those little under-the-skin bumps.What to watch out for:It’s strong. I wouldn’t recommend this every day right out of the gate—especially if you have sensitive skin. Start with 2–3x per week at night.Can dry you out if overused, especially around the mouth and nose. I always follow with a good moisturizer.Sun sensitivity is real. You must use sunscreen during the day while using this, or you’re just undoing the benefits.Oh, and a little secret? People use this on their underarms, knees, and even for keratosis pilaris (those little bumps on arms). It’s not officially for that, but it works.

I've tried countless moisturizers, but The Ordinary’s Natural Moisturizing Factors + Hyaluronic Acid is one I keep coming back to. It strikes the perfect balance: deep hydration without clogging pores or feeling greasy.The formula is lightweight yet effective—ideal for daily use under makeup or as a final step in your nighttime routine. My skin drinks it up instantly, leaving it feeling plump, smooth, and genuinely nourished.The addition of hyaluronic acid gives it that extra boost of moisture retention, and the blend of natural moisturizing factors (like amino acids and ceramides) helps support the skin barrier over time. I’ve noticed less redness and flaking, especially around my nose and cheeks—huge win during dry seasons.Fragrance-free, affordable, and straightforward. If your skin needs hydration without drama, this one delivers.

I know this is a toner, but I use this for my armpits every night. And believe me when I say this toner visibly improved the texture of my armpits. The chicken skin is almost gone. There's a little tingling sometimes, but nothing Im worried about. I'm so impressed with how smoother my armpits are, it's brighter than before. And I haven't even used this for very long. I'm excited to see what it will do with continuous use. And the best thing is it's affordable and it works.

I absolutely love this product!! It helps smooth my skin and does not dry out my skin plus it’s super lightweight and absorbs nicely on my skin. The bonus is the price point is so affordable yet is works wonders! I have already bought 3 bottles of this so far.

This acid is no joke. First time I used it, I put on too much and redness everywhere. Even now after I've learned to use the proper amount, it still stings lightly when I apply it. After application, skin feels smooth and strangely moisturized. Why? Not sure, I feel like skin looks and feels better. Need more time to see if it helps with hyperpigmentation spots.

I started using The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Toning Solution on my back to help with acne marks, and it’s honestly working better than I expected. After a few weeks of using it a few times a week, I’ve noticed the dark spots and post-acne marks starting to fade. My skin looks more even, and the texture feels smoother too. It tingles a bit when I apply it, but nothing too harsh, and I always follow up with moisturizer. For something so affordable, it’s been a really effective part of my body care routine.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Visible Results in Just a Week!I’ve been using The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% for about a week now and I’m already noticing smoother, brighter skin. I apply it every other night after cleansing, and it gives a gentle tingle that reassures me it’s working without irritating my skin. It’s been great for evening out my complexion and fading some dark spots.The bottle is generous in size and the price point is unbeatable for how effective this product is. I also appreciate that it doesn’t have a strong scent or leave any sticky residue.Definitely a staple in my skincare routine now!Shannon G

I like to use products for a while before I review them. The Ordinary’s Glycolic Acid 7% exfoliating toner has been a game changer in my skin care routine. I know it says it is for daily use, but I use it every other day. I tend to develop milia bumps on my forehead and upper cheeks. Since I’ve started using this product, the three small milia on my forehead and one milium on my cheek have finally cleared. This is a great price for a quality product.
