The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 Review

Hey everyone! I have been hearing about The Ordinary brand for many months now and I stumbled upon the actually store randomly just by chance. I instantly knew that I had to pick something up to review for my blog.

Overview & Claims

I mainly picked up this product because my skin has been very dehydrated lately and I was hoping that this would be the solution to my skin issue. The main purpose of this product is to hydrate the skin and also, to repair the skin. It is: alcohol-free, silicone-free, nut-free, vegan and cruelty-free. The ph balance is 6.50 - 7.50 if you were wondering.

Price & Where To Buy

I went to The Abnormal Beauty Company store in Kensington Market in Toronto, and they were sold out of a lot of the products that I wanted to try. I settled with this one and it retails for $6.80 - a price point that you really can't beat! You can also visit their online store and there are a few other locations in the Toronto/GTA area.

How It Worked & Formula/Consistency

Your skin care isn't supposed to smell good and a lot of added fragrance can actually break out your skin or irritate it. This doesn't smell good or bad, it is in-between and you are supposed to use it during both the morning as well as at night. You are to apply it after your toner and before your moisturizer. I usually mix serums and anything that comes in a dropper form into my moisturizer but with this product, it is important to keep this as a separate step in your skincare routine. I use two drops at night and about 1-1.5 in the morning. A little bit goes a long way and at night, 2 drops is enough for me to apply it onto my neck as well as some on my chest. It is a liquidy consistency and this bottle will last me for many months.

 Final Thoughts

I did like using this product and you cannot beat the price! With constant use and using the product twice daily, my skin definitely looked better, even under makeup! My skin doesn't look nearly as dehydrated and I love how quickly it absorbs into the skin! I wish that there were some locations closer to my house but that is only something minor and I really look forward to using more of their products in the line. I have my eyes on 'Buffet' which I actually almost picked up as well as 100% Organic Cold-Pressed Rose Hip Seed Oil which they were sold out of at the time.

Until next time,

STAY CLASSY
