In the past year alone, The Ordinary has catapulted to the top of the skin care market with its simple and effective skincare products that deliver real results without all the fuss and outrageous price tags of some other brands. With so much buzz around this brand, it’s no surprise that in just the past few months there have been many products added to their line that are worth checking out, especially as we get ready for 2023 and beyond! Here’s my round up of what I think are the best ordinary products you can use to help get your skin ready for 2023 and beyond!
The Ordinary Caffeine Solution 5% + EGCG 30ml
The formula is a lightweight liquid that absorbs into the skin quickly. Unlike other caffeine solutions, this one does not dry out the skin and is suitable for all skin types, even sensitive ones. There’s no artificial fragrance added, so it’s perfect for those who have allergies or want a scent-free solution. For people with dark circles, puffiness, and crows feet (because we’re getting older!), they’ll love how this eye cream can help combat these symptoms. For anyone looking for a pick-me-up in the morning to ward off tiredness, try applying some on your lower eyelids before you head off to work!
The Ordinary Alpha Arbutin 2% + HA Concentrated Serum Exclusive Duo
Alpha Arbutin 2% + HA Concentrated Serum Exclusive Duo is an anti-aging serum that helps reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and dark spots. This product does not contain any artificial fragrance or colour and is free from parabens and mineral oil. This gives it an excellent track record at reducing sun spots and hyperpigmentation.

The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% and Zinc 1% Duo: Niacinamide is a type of vitamin B3 which has proven benefits in treating acne by preventing clogging pores and reducing inflammation. Zinc on the other hand prevents breakouts by killing bacteria on the skin surface and may also help prevent acne scarring by calming inflammation as well as fighting bacteria proliferation.
The Ordinary Lactic Acid 10% + HA 2% Superficial Peeling Formulation 30ml
The Ordinary Lactic Acid 10% + HA 2% Superficial Peeling Formulation is a light exfoliating treatment that can be used as part of your daily skincare routine. It helps improve the appearance and texture of skin by exfoliating the surface layer and revealing smoother, younger-looking skin. It also helps reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, age spots and other blemishes on the face. The formula contains both lactic acid and hyaluronic acid which work together to leave you with healthy-looking, even skin tone and texture.
The Ordinary Natural Moisturizing Factors and HA 100ml (Three Pack)
The Ordinary Natural Moisturizing Factors and HA is a moisturiser that provides an instant surge of hydration and long-term moisturisation. It is non-greasy, easily absorbed, non-sticky, and provides an instant improvement in the appearance of fine lines. This product has been formulated without artificial fragrances or colours.
The Ordinary Multi-Peptide Lash and Brow Serum 5ml
This product is quite different from most other lash and brow serums on the market. It’s made up of a blend of peptides, which are amino acid chains that form part of the building blocks that make up all proteins. This helps to stimulate hair follicles and repair damaged hair cells. Additionally, this serum contains acetyl hexapeptide-3 (argireline) which acts as an anti-wrinkle compound. Together, these two ingredients help to create the appearance of fuller lashes and eyebrows while also promoting new hair growth. I love using this serum at night before bed because it has really helped my eye area look less tired throughout the day!
