Review (4/5): This product is REAL and the hype is justified!
After reading lots of reviews stating that this is a fake product, I watched about 10 YouTube videos on how to spot fake The Ordinary products, and according to those, this product is REAL. I believe other people may have received a fake product, and maybe I just got lucky, but so far I am pleased.
I’ve only been using for 3 days, so I don’t have an update on if it changes my skin, but I’m hopeful! The texture is different, but if you don’t use too much, it soaks in nicely and won’t leave a tacky layer on your face. So far so good!
EDIT 12/23/20– I love this stuff. I suffer from dry, textured skin, and also have acne and scarring. For the first time in YEARS my skin is smooth to the touch and I have NO NEW PIMPLES. I start with a micellar water, Cerave SA cleanser, Niacinamide serum, and finish with Cerave moisturizing cream. Simple, affordable, and IT WORKS.
I did end up purchasing a second bottle from Sephora because it’s much cheaper, but packaging and product seems to be exactly the same.
