In reply to Idunu. Idunu, The Ordinary Salicylic Acid has been out of stock for more than a year. No one knows when it'll come back. :(

Hey Gio, I love your blog and the work you’re doing. Thank you for always sharing information with us. If I may ask, why didn’t you recommend THE ORDINARY SALICYLIC ACID instead for the above said lady? I’m asking because I’m learning that whilst The ordinary is cheap and affordable their options might not be the best for skincare on a budget. Thank you

In reply to christabel williams. Christabel, I honestly can't answer this question without knowing more about your skin type and needs. Skincare products need to be tailored to your specific needs cos even the best products can't boost your skincare game if they're not suitable for you. But I'll tell you that every acne-prone person needs salicylic acid. So I'd swap lactic acid for a salicylic acid exfoliant. The Inkey List Beta Hydroxy Acids is an affordable option.
