Thinking of doing an at-home peel? Well, you can try The Ordinary peeling solution. The Ordinary peeling solution has 30% AHA that can help in skin lightening, reducing dullness and uneven skin tone.

While peeling at home is budget-friendly, it isn’t without side effects. We recommend following the peeling method given in the article, Chemical peeling guide for avoiding side effects.

Composition

The Ordinary Peeling solution has following ingredients:

  • 30% concentration of AHA (Alpha Hydroxy acids) -Glycolic acid, tartaric acid and lactic acid. AHA, especially glycolic acid, removes dead skin cells, reduces dark spots, hydrates your skin, and has anti-aging benefits.
  • 2% salicylic acid: 2 % BHA reduces oil secretion, open pores, and comedones. BHA at a concentration of 2 % in the peel that is washed off in a few minutes would have a minor role, if any. In contrast, Dermatologists use 30 % Salicylic peels to control acne.
  • Soothing agents like Panthenol and aloe vera  Tasmannia Lanceolata Fruit/leaf extract counteract the irritant action of this peel. Glycerin, water, and aloe vera hydrate your skin.

Benefits

The Ordinary peeling solution has the following benefits:

  • Skin lightening: AHA or Alpha hydroxy acids have a unique ability to reduce melanin in your skin. A dermatologist often uses Glycolic acid peels at a concentration of 30-50% to reduce dark patches/spots.
  • Reduce dullness and uneven skin tone: Over time, dead skin cells start building up on your skin, giving a dull and sallow look. Peeling can help remove dead skin cells and impart an even tone look.
  • Soft and supple skin: AHA hydrates your skin. Thus, your skin might feel soft and supple after the peel.
  • Reduce oil secretions: BHA concentration is relatively low in this peel. All it does is increase the penetration of AHA. However, regular peel use might reduce excessive oil secretions and prevent open pores and blackheads.

How often can I use it?

Ideally, the peel should be done after two weeks. Once you achieve results, switch to a once-a-month frequency. A lot of companies advocate doing peel twice a week. But this might make your skin sensitive.

Avoid if you have:

  • Sensitive skin: Do not try even if your skin is calm. 30% AHA peel can be used on sensitive skin under the dermatologist’s supervision. Avoid peeling if your skin reacts quickly to salon procedures or skin care products.
  • Post Inflammatory hyper-pigmentation: If your pimples or cuts heal with dark spots, then you should not use this peel.
  • Severe daily sun exposure: This peel will make your skin sensitive to the sun. Avoid this peel if your daily work involves exposure to bright sun. Sunscreen might not be enough to protect your newly developed skin cells from the sun.
