Love it
I love what this serum has done to my skin. It’s smoother, looks fresher throughout the day, and even looks more plump. I think it’s also evened out some of the skin tones and redness on my face but I’m not sure. It also helps to control my extremely oily skin, just a little. Less blotting throughout the day.Acne is less my issue, but I have closed comedomes and other weird textured bumps that I can’t figure out how to control. This has been helping, little by little. There is a purging phase; I started getting a few pimples after use, and again when I upped how many times a day I was using it, but they don’t last long. My skin is somewhat sensitive but it doesn’t burn. It does dry me out but follow up with a good hyaluronic moisturizer and you’re good to go. I will be purchasing more from this brand in the future.

Finally — A Budget-Friendly Acne Solution That Works!
I’ve tried so many acne spot treatments over the years, but The Ordinary Salicylic Acid 2% Solution has quickly become one of my absolute favorites. It’s simple, affordable, and actually effective.Within just a few days of using it, I noticed that my breakouts were smaller, less inflamed, and healing much faster. It works great both as a spot treatment and applied lightly over problem areas to keep pores clear. The texture is lightweight and absorbs quickly without leaving any sticky residue.What I really appreciate is that it doesn’t irritate my skin like other harsher acne products. No burning, no peeling — just clean, calm skin. I pair it with a moisturizer and sunscreen in the morning, and it fits perfectly into my routine.If you struggle with clogged pores, blackheads, or stubborn breakouts, this little bottle is absolutely worth a try. It’s proof that you don’t have to spend a fortune for real results!

It helps me manage my acne
My skin type is textured combination+very oily, acne-prone (hormonal acne). I’ve been using this for about 2 weeks, and already I see a difference. My face is shinier, signiticantly less oily, and smoother. My acne, while not completely gone, has become a lot easier to manage and less aggressive. Keep in mind I haven’t made any changes to my habits, such as eating cleaner or being adequately hydrated. Combined with better habits, I think this product could do even more.More things to keep in mind:- I wash my face twice a day. If you don’t, don’t expect any skincare to help you.- I pair this with sunscreen and moisturizer. Salicylic acid is VERY drying. You can’t skip out on moisturizer!!!- When you first use this, it might tingle or burn. Not significantly. It didn’t make my face red or irriated, but there is a sensation when you first put it on. This lasted about a week for me until it stopped. I used to only put it on at night, but after my skin adjusted I started using twice a day.Overall, I’m happy with this product and I’m definitely going to keep it as a permanent addition to my skincare routine!

Gentle and efficient!
This solution is a lifesaver for my skin. I have acne prone skin and hormonal issues. I break out all the time out of the blue. I use a combination of products to keep the acne at bay and this serum is one of the main ones. I use it once a day in the morning on clean skin. It immediately soothes the skin. It feels cold and very comfortable. It absorbs quickly, it doesn’t dry out my skin, and it wears very well under makeup. I repurchase this product the minute I see I am running low. My skin absolutely loves it and so does my wallet. It is very inexpensive and very effective. I highly recommend it.

Excellent for more than my face.
Love this. Very satisfied with the results. I noticed my face is so much smoother and less greasy. I also use on my feet after my pedi for extra softness. Also helps for dry eczema spots. Will repurchase.

Effective, but Not a Miracle
I’ve been using The Ordinary Salicylic Acid 2% Solution consistently and overall it’s a really solid product for the price. It helps clear out clogged pores, reduce small breakouts, and smooth texture without a lot of unnecessary ingredients. It’s lightweight, fragrance-free, and easy to layer under moisturizer.Just a heads up: the texture is a little watery/tacky, and this isn’t an overnight fix. It took a couple of weeks to see real improvement, and it can be a little drying if your skin is sensitive or already compromised. You definitely need to moisturize and use sunscreen.If you have oily or combination, blemish-prone skin and want an affordable, straightforward acne-fighting serum, this is a great option. Not perfect, but absolutely worth it for the results and price.

I live It
If you have acne-prone skin, this serum is a solid pick. The 2% salicylic acid works well to unclog pores and help prevent breakouts without feeling super harsh. It’s lightweight and absorbs fairly quickly, though you might notice some mild tingling—normal with this kind of ingredient.It’s not magic overnight, and if your skin is sensitive, you’ll want to ease in gently (every other night first, maybe). Also, sunscreen is a must while using it. Overall, for the price, you’re getting one of the better over‑the‑counter options for blemishes.

Product is perfect, I gave 1 star for the delivery, he did not call before delivery to confirm my presense at home , he left the package at the door unattended, and could have been easily stolen 🙁
