The Ordinary’s cult-favorite exfoliating treatment, officially named the 'AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution,' is launching in Canada for the first time on June 6, 2025. Previously unavailable due to local regulatory restrictions, the highly concentrated exfoliating serum will now arrive on shelves and online, including Sephora Canada, with updated packaging that meets Canadian compliance requirements.
The solution has gained massive viral popularity for its bold red color and transformative results, designed to improve skin texture, reduce congestion, and target uneven skin tone. Formulated for experienced users, it blends 30% alpha hydroxy acids (glycolic, lactic, tartaric, and citric) with 2% beta hydroxy acid (salicylic acid) to deeply exfoliate the skin. Supportive ingredients like Tasmanian Pepperberry Derivative (for reducing irritation), hyaluronic acid, pro-vitamin B5, and black carrot add hydration and antioxidant benefits.
Sold in Canada with the required 'For Professional Use' labeling, the product is recommended for use just once or twice a week on dry skin for up to 10 minutes -- making it a high-performance staple for those looking to boost their skincare regimen.
