This is another product from The Ordinary. Its product is very good and helps a lot in closing pores. And it also lightens hyperpigmentation. If you have hyperpigmentation. But be careful not to use it around the mouth, because that's its drawback, honestly. If you use it around the mouth.

It gives opposite results. It doesn't help. I ordered it from iHerb and Niceone. Honestly, they're all the same. So it doesn't matter, order from whoever you want. And the quantity of the product is reasonable for its price. And honestly, every riyal spent on it is worth it. As I told you, its drawback is that you can't use it.

For hyperpigmentation around the mouth. And under the eyes, be careful.

Alpha Arbutin 2% + HA The Ordinary Review Summary

Verified by a MyEx auditor

I shared my experience with The Ordinary Alpha Arbutin 2% + HA serum, an effective product suitable for oily and combination skin. I noticed an improvement in skin appearance when starting with small amounts and monitoring skin response. The serum requires gradual use and may not be the best for very dry or highly sensitive skin, which might need gentler alternatives.

Worth it if you're looking for an effective skin-brightening serum suitable for oily and combination skin, provided you start with small amounts.
