Sometimes I think that the products from The Ordinary can be a little bit confusing for those of us who aren't entirely familiar with all of the ingredients that they sell. Personally, I actually like that because it forces me to look into the ingredients and see if they might be a good fit for my skin type, but I know that it could definitely be confusing for people who aren't really interested in going that deep with it. That's actually why I decided to do this review - because of all of the products, I feel like The Ordinary Natural Moisturizing Factors + HA might be the most confusing for people.

In 2017, there really has been no brand that has been more hyped than the highly affordable The Ordinary, from Deciem. Everyone is talking about the brand (including me) and new releases are selling like hotcakes. A while ago I managed to get my hands on the two primers that they released and I'm really happy to share them with you guys today! Also, if you're as hyped about about the new The Ordinary Colours Foundations as basically everyone seems to be, keep an eye out - I ordered both types the day they launched and I'm just waiting for them to arrive to me!

Anyway, for more about these primers, keep reading!

So obviously my obsession with using acids as a part of my skin care routine is pretty clear if you've ever read one of my skin care posts. Since I've been using hydroxy acids as a part of my daily skin care routine I've really seen overall improvement in the both the appearance and behavior of my skin. So you know that as soon as I saw a social media post that alerted me of The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Toning Solution, I was all over the website and putting in my order. I mean, obviously...

Let's talk about it, shall we?

A while back I did a whole post about the products that I picked up from The Ordinary when I first heard that the brand launched, but I wanted to come back now that I've been using the products for a while and review them for you guys. The first one I want to review is The Ordinary Lactic Acid 10% + HA2%. I've had great success in my skin care routine with hydroxy acids, but I'd never had the chance to try lactic acid - which I'd heard great things about - so I picked it up!

Skin care is a DENSE market and there are a lot of products that make claims that the evidence in regards to their ingredients simply doesn't back up. That's one of my biggest pet peeves and one that is inspiring me to want to learn more and more about skin care and specifically about the evidence behind certain ingredients. When I heard that Deciem, the company behind brands like Hylamide and NIOD, had launched a new brand called The Ordinary that offers evidence based skin care formulas with high concentrations of actives at an affordable price. What actually prompted me to really want to try the products was actually an interview that Brandon Truaxe, the founder of Deciem, did with Caroline Hirons talking about about the brand. The way he talked about the products and the answers that he gave were very impressive to me and inspired me to want to give these products a go.

Keep reading for my initial thoughts. This isn't a full review, because I haven't been using the products long enough for that, but more of an overview of the products I decided to try out!
