I have been struggling for years and having mature skin and different tone on face against the neck makes me feel sad as I have um even tone. However, I saw a review of a atologist on this brand and product and I thought of giving a try and it was the best choice ever. I combine with other things but this product makes a real change. Please see pics
After struggling with persistent acne, I was gifted by The Ordinary's skincare products, and it was a game-changer. Within weeks, my skin became clearer and more radiant. The combination of their Niacinamide 10% and the Alpha Arbutin Solution worked wonders to reduce blemishes and prevent new breakouts. My complexion is now smoother, more even-toned, and healthier. Iโm truly grateful for The Ordinaryโs effective and affordable skincare solutions.
Only used this a for a short time before I switched up my routine, but planning on re-introducing it since it made my skin tone very bright and even. I would give it 5 stars if it didn't have HA in it. Not sure if the HA is for formulation/stability or just because they want to add HA, but I use other serums with HA and am trying to limit how much HA I'm using at the same time. Just don't think it needs to be in everything.
I really liked this product, but now it smells like onions? It's really off putting. I preferred the previous formula as the color change didn't bother me. Not sure the smell is something I can get used to.
*received for free, gifted by theordinary* This stuff is pretty effective! As someone with combination skin, I get acne around my chin and t-zone pretty frequently, which has left some acne scarring. Iโve also been trying to combat some sun damage and fade freckles from living in sunny South Florida. This serum has been a nice addition to my night time skincare routine. Itโs plenty hydrating with the hylauronic acid, and doesnโt aggravate my face even if I use it following actives such as retinol or glycolic acid. Sharing some before and after photos about 2 weeks apart - I think it definitely helped expedite some acne scar fading! However I wouldnโt go in expecting overnight results - it works slowly but surely! I will also say that you do need to use it by putting it on the back of your hand and then applying it to the face. Iโve tried rubbing it between my hands before applying but it absorbs into the skin too fast to be effective. You also donโt need to use a lot, maybe 1/3 of a dropper.
I am currently on my fourth bottle but this has hardly made a drastic change for my hyperpigmentation. However I love the fact that it does not irritate my skin at all. I will keep repurchasing and hoping it clears my hyperpigmentation ..
I just bought the Alpha Arbutin yesterday and applied it for the very first time last night. I woke up with visibly faded pigmentation on most of my dark spots (leftover from a breakout to a cosmetic my skin hated) and overall brighter looking skin. So far, Iโve been very happy with every Ordinary product Iโve tried. For the first time Iโm able to build a skin care regimen that not only works, but doesnโt irritate my sensitive skin. And all for a reasonable cost
Iโve been using this product almost every morning and evening together with the Vitamin C + HA product. It is clearly working, just not as fast as I expected. Hope it keeps on working.
Gifted by theordinary. This serum is truly amazing as it helps give extra moisture in your skin. I had scars left behind from my acne, leaving my skin tone uneven. After using this product, I noticed my skin looking brighter and even toned!
Iโm trying this alpha Arbutin product for the first time and will continue to use it to see if there is any progress! I love the ordinary products, this was gifted by the ordinary. I definitely recommend their products
I received this product in exchange for my honest review as offered by the ordinary. This is definitely a good starting point if youโre just getting into chemical exfoliants and donโt know if your skin can handle something harsher. It also didnโt break me out like other products with HA do
Iโve really been loving this! I have m dry skin so Iโm loving using this in my skincare routine. It is easy to use and goes on super nice. I would definitely recommend this. I was gifted by the ordinary.
The new product Alpha Arbutin 2% + HA 30ml complimentary from theordinary is great for The Ordinary first time users. I have problem skin and my skin looks more hydrated and refreshed after just using it for a week.
I have been using this for a little over a week and a half now and I have noticed a huge improvement with my skin tone, my skin overall looks a lot more even and this is also helped with my dry skin! gifted by theordinary
Alpha Arbutin 2% + HA is easy to add to my daily routine and has noticeably brightened my skin. Its lightweight, non-sticky texture absorbs quickly and layers well with other products. The Ordinary delivers high-quality, effective skincare at an affordable price, and this serum is no exception. I highly recommend it for improving skin tone and reducing pigmentation. This was gifted by The Ordinary!
This serum is really great for evening your skin texture and for post acne dark spots. It absorbs really nice into my skin and doesnโt leave a sticky residue. This made my skin feel really nice and didnโt cause any breakouts. Gifted by theordinary.
I struggle with very dry and flaky skin. After using this product, I noticed a significant difference in brightens and hydration on my skin. I love how simple the ingredients are and how quickly this product changed my skin. If you struggle with dry and dull skin, I definitely recommend this.
This product is amazing and I was gifted by the ordinary! It is super easy to apply to the skin. The price of this product is great for the quality and I will for sure continue to purchase again. I have noticed a big change with limiting the redness of my skin
I was offered by theordinary this serum and At first I was taken back because I didnโt realize how thick the serum was and I was nervous it would be oily or take a long time to dry but itโs the exact opposite ! It dried very quick and didnโt leave any residue left over ! And my skin felt tighter immediately and I honestly loved how my skin looked after !
I received The Ordinary Alpha Arbutin + HA Acid serum complimentary from theordinary. The alpha arbutin and hyaluronic acid serum helps combat hyperpigmentation and even out skin tone. It is lightweight and absorbed easily into my skin. The hyaluronic acid made skin plump and moistured.
Gifted by theordanary I've used this during the day & I'm not the type to wash my face twice a day so i don't do that but i absolutely love it on my face , I've heard great things about the ordinary but It's always out of stock at ulta
This works so well with my uneven skin tone and makes it look and feel so good! I love how well the ordinary always performs but also they make quality skincare affordable for everyone! This product is no different! Thanks fkr being gifted by the ordinary!
I was looking for something to brighten up my skin and bought this. It is a little bit sticky and thick after applying it on my face, but given the dryness here in Canada, I am okay with it. At first, I didn't expect much from this serum because of some of the reviews here, but it did work on me after using it for a week maybe? My face looks less yellowish and dull significantly. I also use it quite generously, so 30ml didn't last me long, probably less than a month. FYI, I have light skin with a pink undertone, never really get tanned.
I didn't even finished this bottle yet, but the progress is unbelievably amazing, I am shocked. I had loads of acne since I was 12-13 years old and the scars just would not fade, even the new acnes left huge dark spots after themselves. I tried many products, but this was the only one, which helped me. I used it together with the Glycolic Acid Toning solution every evening for three weeks now and the results are satisfying. I definetly continue to use this product as a spot treatment. Thank you, The Ordinary <3 It was a huge boost to my confidence. I recommend these products to everyone, who is struggling with acnes and acne scars!!
I absolutely love this product! It works very quickly and the results are very obvious. The only thing is you have to use this product consistently because as soon as you stop using it the uneven skin tone is back. This was gifted to me by the ordinary
I recently tried The Ordinary Alpha Arbutin 2% + HA 30ml and Iโm very pleased with the results. After using it for a few weeks, my dark spots have lightened and my skin looks more even. The serum is lightweight and absorbs quickly, which I appreciate. I like that it contains hyaluronic acid, which keeps my skin hydrated. Itโs also gentle and didnโt cause any irritation. However, it does take time to see results, and the dropper can be a bit tricky to use. Overall, itโs a great product for brightening and hydrating the skin. I would definitely recommend it. Gifted by the ordinary
Tried something new with alpha Arbutin and man was I missing out, I love that this is water based to it absorbs into the skin quickly. Iโve been using this with tret and havenโt noticed any signed of aggravation in my skin so Iโd say itโs nice to pair with tret and retinal -offered by theordinary
I have been using this product for a bit now and I really like it! It works great on hormonal acne. I use it after I wash my face and before I moisturize. It doesnโt dry out my skin and it makes it nice and smooth. gifted by the Ordinary
This product, when layered under a moisturizer ensures your face remains hydrated. It also works to decrease dark spots and hyperpigmentation but seeing the effects takes a little bit of time. Itโs a good product for the money.
This serum is a go to in my everyday skin care routine. I use daily after moisturizer. I love the application and the price for what you are getting is great. A little goes a long way. My skin has looked my even toned since.
This was gifted to me by TheOrdinary. Keep in mind it does take time to see a change and it will not be immediate and that is not a bad thing at all because it took the time for you skin to become pigmented it will take the time to get the skin tone to even out . This is an absolutely benificial step in my skincare routine as I do suffer with hyperpigmentation called melasma!
I struggle with hyperpigmentation on my skin and the Alpha Arbutin 2% + HA 30ml is a great solution to my skin concerns. It mixes well with my other skincare ingredients which I love and all at an amazing price point! complimentary from theordinary
This product was gifted by theordinary๐ฉท The Alpha Arbutin serum targets dark spots and hyperpigmentation, which I suffer from especially in summer as my skin tans and gets darker. I tried this product out as soon as I got it and I definitely recommend! Helps hydrate your skin as well, feels and looks amazing on the skin. Doesnโt feel heavy or sticky. Very nice, would recommend to anyone who needs a simple serum for those problems.
I was gifted by theordinary in exchange for my honest review. I use this serum every other day; alternating with my other actives. This works as a charm for me; i have had good experiences with their products; my skin has become more brighter and awake than before
Very happy to be slowly getting rid of the hyperpigmentation! Gifted by theordinary and Iโm so so thankful. Slowly starting to fade all my insecurities away, but really itโs very lite on your face and isnโt sticky which I really like.
This was offered by TheOrdinary. This product helped my dark spots get a lot lighter and also helped hydrate my face where I was starting to get a little dry! Iโve tried to stop using so many products on my face, and this one definitely made the cut. I would definitely recommend this product!
Absorbs very fast. Feels good on skin and has a nice texture. Great for fading dark spots. Good product to try for hyperpigmentation! My skin is smooth, soft and what seems to be lighter are the dark spots I have on my face.
Overall, I am highly satisfied with The Ordinary Alpha Arbutin. Its lightweight texture, effectiveness in reducing hyperpigmentation and improving skin tone, simplicity in formulation, and affordability make it a standout product in my skincare routine. Whether you're dealing with dark spots or simply want to achieve a brighter, more even complexion, I highly recommend giving this serum a try. complimentary from theordinary
I received the offered by The Ordinary Alpha Arbutin 2% + HA 30m I usually use a few drops to the face in the morning and evening. l. Itโs for all types of skin, and use for uneven skin tone. I love this must have item.
I've used it for a month and my face is so smooth now I can't believe it! It's glowing! It's giving everything its supposed to...i cant stop touching and feeling the smoothness. Having tried so many different products before and getting no results, i didn't expect much from Alpha Arbutin....but then i said no harm in trying. This is the best thing to ever happen to my face. I'm so grateful
