@@oyshorjooyshee6686 it depends on the individual skin. It is a moisturising acid and fairly gentle, but it would all depend on how your skin tolerates it - maybe try once a week, then increase to twice a week, or every second day.
The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Toning Solution is not typically recommended for removing hyperpigmentation in armpits. I have found the formulation is not designed for such delicate skin and can cause irritation or other adverse reactions, as my patients have reported. It is generally better to use a product specifically formulated for the underarms, such as DermalMD Intimate Lightening Serum. I have recommended this product to patients, and it has been proven to be effective at reducing the appearance of hyperpigmentation, discoloration, and other skin imperfections in the underarm area. I hope this informs you all, since every skin type is different!
Random q but would the ordinary glycolic acid be suitable for those with sensitive skin parts, like my friend has vitiligo and would it be bad to recommend this to them? X
Doctors tend to recommend the expensive pharmaceutical products... Patch test like the video advised and see for yourself. I've been having great success using The Ordinary's toner under my arms. ✌🏿
I recently discovered that I have ichtyosis (thought it was eczema for 30 years because of the doctor that told so to my mom when i was born, duh), and before i even heard about that illness, i watched a video where you spoke about TO. I decided to try glycolic acid, just because youuuuu told us it was fantastic, and that was the BEST thing that ever happened to my skin!... Right after that, i watched a video from Dr. Drey while i was looking for answers about my ichtyosis and she said glycolic acid was helpful for that type of skin condition.... omg every pieces of the puzzle were together! Now I use TO glycolic acid once every two days, alternating with TO lactic acid (not to irritate my skin too much) and i use the Naturium Smoother glycolic acid exfoliating body wash, and i do not struggle with my skin anymore. Thank you so much 😢😢❤❤ my life has changed and i am more confident now that you are in my life, 😘
@isabelle, thank you so much for taking time to comment. You are so very welcome and I'm so happy to hear that you have found something that works for you and your skin. You just made my day, thank you and and it's people like you that keep me motivated to do what I do!! Have a great week!!
@@CassandraBankson i dont want to waste your time (hope you read this), but just know that i watch EVERY video your make and i consider the time you put at work, and you know... you help me help others too!!! Im able to help the people around me, and it is besause of you... all this.... and i live very far, Québec, Canada... hahaha DONT STOP, YOU'RE SO GOOD AT IT!
I used to be one of those people that was self conscious about my discoloration in my underarms. Then I had a baby and turned 30 and decided I’m not going to be hot and wear sleeves. I learned real quick….no one cared about my underarms or any of my other insecurities.
I bought all new skin care from The Ordinary after watching all your videos! I LOOOOOOOOVE this Glycolic Acid!!! My skin feels SO soft. I have used it on some scares too, and I swear it helps!!! I'm a big fan!
I’m a Stridex gal - been using it daily for years - and I know it’s a BHA not an AHA but I use it on my armpits in between waxing sessions and I even use it behind my ears and on the back of my neck where my hair oil builds up and can cause breakouts and cysts.
Do you use it after you shave or simply before? I usually trim my legs and arms but even trimming leads to ingrowns all over. I use a physical exfoliator but it doesn't prevent, it just help fix the ingrowns. But all this results in a wounded and irritated skin.
@@ivo.vasilevv always exfoliate before shaving, not after as that can lead to irritation or infection. I’ll use the chemical exfoliant a day before typically and after I shave I’ll moisturize with a neutral, non-clogging lotion
@@TheImpairmentI love the cerave moisturizing cream! Most things with colloidal oatmeal and no added fragrance are great too. Aveeno has some really good options.
I also use it all over my body on nights I don't use retinol and it has helped me alot with small bumps on my skin specifically near my elbow and knee. But it took me around 4 months to see them completely gone.
I've found a better product, that works very well for my infernal armpits too: it's the Balancing Peel by Transparent Lab. 10% chamomile water 5% glycolic acid 2% salicylic acid 0,5% mandelic acid. Inexpensive and soooo good!
@@glow_with_cindyI've been using it once or twice a week for my KP on my legs and upper arms and it's revolutionary!!! I've tried the Paula's Choice moisturisers and wish I could get my New Zealand hands on some Peach and Lily - but this is incredible! And so cheap! ❤
I use this every other night on my chest and upper back. It burns my face but alongside my PanOxyl seems to keep my acne on those areas at bay and evens out the skin tone. I use PanOxyl 10% under my armpits and that seems to keep the darkness at bay as well.
Can i apply it everyday to control Body odour??? And after after this I don't av to use any deodorant or?? Does using This product The ORDINARY last long if applied in the morning like for 24hrs??
I like to use glycolic acid to exfoliate the rough parts of the bottoms of my feet (like when you get that scaly rough skin on your heels, especially during the summer). I use it and it really helps smooth my rough heels. I also like to use a 42% urea gel (with something more occlusive on top, like a creamy petroleum jelly, followed with socks if I want) on my feet at bedtime in between exfoliation nights.
I’ve been putting that all over my body for over a year. I use it 3 times a week, after my nighttime shower. It’s very moisturizing actually, like a lotion, and dries quickly. My legs are always looking moisturized even without lotion. That bottle goes a long way. Try it out and wherever you think your body will benefit. Just not the genitals. Lol. ❤❤❤
never throw away products but i recently did a "clean out" and threw this away bc i forgot why i bought it/wasn't using it lolll. now i'm sad bc these are all good ideas.
i just bought this last month and i thought its the same as my previous toner that i use daily am and pm. didn't know that this can't be use with retinol, which i use every night too.. no wonder my skin starts to break out again 😭 i wish i knew this before. thanks for educating me, i just started to took interest in skincare i'm still learning 😁
It can be used with retinol and retinoids. IF your skin can handle it. There's no like, ingredient conflict here. Dr. Shereene Idriss uses AHA and then Adapalene in the same night routine. I personally use tretinoin every night and The Ordinary glycolic acid every 2nd night. I could use it every night, but I like to alternate it with serums/ampules, and they contain peptides, and direct acids can break up the peptides and make them into something else, so, don't really want that!
Deodorants and antiperspirants have never worked for me, I hated the smell of them and I felt like they just made the BO smell worse, so when I heard Michelle from Lab Muffin Beauty Science recommend using this product under the arms I hopped right on that train since I was already using it for my face. I've been using it daily as a replacement for deodorant for a few years now and it works incredibly well for me, unless I forget it my underarms basically don't smell at all. I don't shave so that's never been an issue, and I've never had an issues with irritation or overexfoliation, everyone's skin is different but it's what works for me
Deodorant is just to mask the smell with a different smell. A tip with antiperspirant (that I got from Dr Dray on youtube) is that it works best if you apply it the night before, and then it will be ready for the next day. It takes time to sink into the pores and properly do it's thing, it's not instant, especially if you're going to sweat shortly after applying it, it's just way too soon and you're going to have a bad time. That's a handy comment. I have been using benzoyl peroxide (BP) 5% wash on my armpits every shower for years now, and that works REALLY well. But, now I'm going to try glycolic acid instead (I have already been using The Ordinary one on my face for years). The issue with BP is that it's fine if you shave your arms, it's won't bleach anything (as BP does), does it gets washed off. BUT, if you have hair there, the BP will soak into the hair and then particularly when you sweat, it will bleach your shirts, your bed sheets, etc. Not a SINGLE video exists online (or popular skincare creators talking about this use) has mentioned this. It's just this massive blind spot they collectively have, because they don't have hair under their arms lol. But anyway, hopefully the glycolic acid will work nicely. Just wondering how to best apply it. Could do a spray bottle, but I don't know if it will get past the hair effectively. How do you do it? also do you do it while the underarms are still wet after your shower, or do you go in dry? how much do you use? do you apply it every morning? do you hit it with the hair dryer to steed things up or just air dry? Hopefully it's not sticky, since it can be a little sticky on the face.
@@Siberius- In the morning I use a spray bottle, and then rub it in with my hands for a more even application, I use however many sprays it takes to saturate my hair. I’ve not noticed any sort of stickiness, and I don’t do anything extra to dry the area. I’ve not seen any sort of staining or bleaching on my clothes.
@@nyxh.7567 - I started using glycolic acid and I was going to use it in a spray bottle next time, yea. If it goes onto dry skin, it seems to be much less sticky than wet or damp skin. My instinct was to "help" dry it down with a hair dryer, but that would likely remove the water content and just leave stickiness that then can't sink into the skin as effectively, making it worse, maybe, so yea I'll just be leaving it like you do. The first time I tried it I had no smell at all for 5-6 days, but then I realised the effects of the former Benzoyl Peroxide method was still also in effect (which once kept me with no smell for 3 days, without any showers lol), so I need more time to see how the glycolic acid performs (with a good enough application that will work).
@@LifeWithLou85 keratosis pilaris - it's sometimes called strawberry or chicken skin, too much keratin in the top layer of skin traps every single hair underneath leaving thousands of little bumps of ingrown hair. Painful and unsightly
I just use it daily on face scalp and body as a toner on damp skin to get daily exposure to glycolic acid. With long term use, it stimulates collagen production, especially at this low pH.
True, i tried it few times a week at night, I have no dark color and no odor on my armpit anymore. I was amazed with the results. But yes, not over used it important.
I love your videos very much but sometimes I’m trying to be careful while I’m watching them because it has some very unpleasant photos that are put in the video for an example why not 😂😅 but in these seconds I’m listening the video not watching it 😔😀 Thanks for sharing with us 💖
I use this for my underarms, and when it dries, I then use my aluminum free deodorant. Make sure your skin is dry before using the acid and not on broken skin.
A 5% GA dissolved a dark brown freckle on my finger tip. Been there all my life and I noticed after I'd been using it for a few months my freckle looks like the ghost of a mark, I think other people wouldn't even notice where it was. I can't use it on my face cause my retinol and acne stuff, ended up too much drying (I have a pha now for face), but I've been using the GA on my legs and under my arms and back of my arms.
I love this toner for the face, but I’m too chicken to try it on my armpits. Something that works well for the smell is witch hazel toner. Just put some on a pad and swipe it on your underarms.
I’ve actually got an unopened bottle in my bathroom cabinet that’s been there for about a year… I stopped using it on my face coz I introduced AHA’s into my moisturiser. The some by mi aha bha pha miracle cream. Maybe I should try the glycolic acid on my body and my scalp… wouldn’t use it under my arms though… thanks 😁
Can glycolic acid be used with vitamin C? The Ordinary website advises against, yet other sources say one can absolutely use vitamin C after glycolic acid. What's more there are serums on the market which contain both ingredients, such as the Murad vita-c glycolic brightening serum. I'm genuinely confused and would appreciate any input.
Yeah I learned the hard way when I used Glycolic Acid 7% after I shaved my face. It BURNED. I wasn't paying any attention and was off in my head and then I was like. WTF am I doing?
Hi can i use glycolic acid directly on my face and body areas? I have this feeling that i cant absorbed the whole value of glycolic if i apply it to cotton or cotton pads . Please enlighten me
I use this on my knees since it seems very crusty and darker than any part of my body. It has lightened and is very smooth. Dont need moisturizer there now.
I was looking to try this product to remove a tan. However I have sensitive skin and am nervous to use it on my face. I have redness on my cheeks but unsure what it is.
I've been doing this for years now, but when I sweat, it stains my shirts and bed sheets. I think it gets soaked into the hair is the issue. People who shave their under arms don't have this issue at all. What has your experience been with that? I'm going to try glycolic acid instead, and hopefully it works well, because benzoyl peroxide sure works well.
@@reemnaeem2832 - No no no. That would be one more upkeep thing, and if I slacked off I'd have prickly stubble there, and I don't want any skin issues there. Good thing is that I tried the glycolic acid and it's AWESOME. I spray it onto rather dry skin/hair once every 3+ days and I don't need any deodorant.
Hey Cassandra! Please suggest some basic moisturizers for sensitive skin. I'm 18 and I have dry-sensitive skin type. Some moisturizers which I've wishlisted are cetaphil, cerave and bioderma, plz suggest me that i should go for them or not. Love from India❤
Can you clarify how you use it on your scalp? You said you wet your hair and wait while you put some conditioner on the ends. So when do you shampoo? Before or after? I’d assume you shampoo before. Then the ordinary, then conditioner. So do you rinse it out?
Can you do a dive into Bubble brand?! Supposed to be a drunk elephant dupe without the price tag. I tried to turn and learn and they seem different but it seems like a decent product?
I use this on my feet, calves and forearms. It's amazing! Makes and keeps things smooth and non-crusty. xD I use AHA7 by cosrx on my face and neck cos my face loves/prefers the apple water (pyrus malus).
I have struggled with this on and off for YEARS. Currently treating 6 weeks with doxycycline. Works every time. Go to your doctor and get an oral prescription. Topical treatments are not near as effective.
People use it as a deodorant daily, so, whatever you can tolerate. Though if you're using it for pigmentation reasons for example, every day might be needlessly excessive, I have no idea.
It will make your feet super soft.. have tried it it works. I use cotton wool to dab it all over my feet especially the heel area. Try it. Do it every other day to start with. I’m totally pleased with the results. I have had no bad reaction
I've been using it for years and I struggle to notice it doing anything. Can apply it every day like it's water. Some people's skin is just totally fine with certain things (but then sometimes freak out about something else). I started tretinoin and, nothin'. I Just use glycolic acid to better break down that "glue" between the dead skin cells, so as I can more effectively use a peeling gel in the shower to collect it all up. My skin just suckkkks at getting rid of dead skin cells! so it's no wonder the glycolic acid wasn't doing shit (from what I could tell), because the dead skin cells were still there, just, looser. That just my skin issue though. Took me 10 years to figure this out lol.

I love this toner for the face, but I’m too chicken to try it on my armpits. Something that works well for the smell is witch hazel toner. Just put some on a pad and swipe it on your underarms.
I’ve actually got an unopened bottle in my bathroom cabinet that’s been there for about a year… I stopped using it on my face coz I introduced AHA’s into my moisturiser. The some by mi aha bha pha miracle cream. Maybe I should try the glycolic acid on my body and my scalp… wouldn’t use it under my arms though… thanks 😁
Can glycolic acid be used with vitamin C? The Ordinary website advises against, yet other sources say one can absolutely use vitamin C after glycolic acid. What's more there are serums on the market which contain both ingredients, such as the Murad vita-c glycolic brightening serum. I'm genuinely confused and would appreciate any input.
Yeah I learned the hard way when I used Glycolic Acid 7% after I shaved my face. It BURNED. I wasn't paying any attention and was off in my head and then I was like. WTF am I doing?
Hi can i use glycolic acid directly on my face and body areas? I have this feeling that i cant absorbed the whole value of glycolic if i apply it to cotton or cotton pads . Please enlighten me
Hey Cassandra can you please please do a review on Dr Youn’s skincare line
I use this on my knees since it seems very crusty and darker than any part of my body. It has lightened and is very smooth. Dont need moisturizer there now.
Hey after applying do you wash it off or let it there on skin followed by a moisturiser?
Can i use the glycolic acid on my legs between shaves for ingrown hair?
Gotta get myself one of these~~
Should i cleanse face, use glycolic acid for scrub then go in with my cera ve vitamin c and then moisturizer? Thank you!
Does it help with closed comedones?? How do you use it? Do you wash it off after???
Can you please make a Video about the Esthetician Revolution that i keep hearing about.
I use this on my oily scalp, idk if it helped the oiliness but I just want to use it because it’s a bit too harsh on my face😅
I was looking to try this product to remove a tan. However I have sensitive skin and am nervous to use it on my face. I have redness on my cheeks but unsure what it is.
Cass! Prose (the costom hair care company) now does COSTOM SKINCARE! Can you please please pleeeeeease do a review! I love their hair products...
I have dry and uneven skin tone can i use it. I have never tried anything like this on my skin. Can i use it?
can u pls try the sulwhasoo cleansing oil and give your first impression:)))
Lab Muffin Beaury Science and Dr Dray have both suggested doing this, and I've been doing it for a few years now. It works really well.
Stopped using deodorant & antiperspirants 2 years ago I wash my pits with pannoxyl & when I added a cotton swipe of this no Oder at all
I've been doing this for years now, but when I sweat, it stains my shirts and bed sheets. I think it gets soaked into the hair is the issue. People who shave their under arms don't have this issue at all. What has your experience been with that? I'm going to try glycolic acid instead, and hopefully it works well, because benzoyl peroxide sure works well.
@@Siberius- I shave it off & just put glycolic acid In a spray bottle & one spray & im good all day
@@santionthebeach8471 - I see I see!
@@Siberius-just shave
@@reemnaeem2832 - No no no. That would be one more upkeep thing, and if I slacked off I'd have prickly stubble there, and I don't want any skin issues there.
Good thing is that I tried the glycolic acid and it's AWESOME. I spray it onto rather dry skin/hair once every 3+ days and I don't need any deodorant.
I was really struggling with dark underarms, but Dermalmd Intimate Lightening Serum did wonders to brighten it up!
Where do you get this? I’ve heard about it
Hey Cassandra! Can i use the toner at the same time as my Argireline Solution from The Ordinary? 😊
Helo cassandra Bankson. Nice to meet you. I from Vietnam 🤝🤝☕
This product RUINED my underarms 😩😩 I have a chemical burn rash and irritation for the past 5 months. How do I get it to go away 😩
how often did you used it? i just bought some and im kinda scared loool
Hey Cassandra! Please suggest some basic moisturizers for sensitive skin. I'm 18 and I have dry-sensitive skin type. Some moisturizers which I've wishlisted are cetaphil, cerave and bioderma, plz suggest me that i should go for them or not.
Love from India❤
I have very sensitive skin and I use cerave. It doesn’t cause any irritation or acne for me. Hope this helps!
You can use aveeno body lotion...it doesn't cause breakouts plus it's very gentle & won't irritate your skin.
Can I use retinol on my face after this ordinary toner at night?
Can you clarify how you use it on your scalp? You said you wet your hair and wait while you put some conditioner on the ends. So when do you shampoo? Before or after? I’d assume you shampoo before. Then the ordinary, then conditioner.
So do you rinse it out?
Yes, you rinse it off with a conditioner, I guess. I would like to try it out
It works very well for my skin too. Isit okay to use daily under arms? Or will it cause any side effects later on,like breast cancer??
Is it good for after shaving razor bumbs or redness....
I have been using it for my underarms for 2 months I can see the results my underarm’s much lighter…
Cass what on earth is that thumbnail😂😂😂
An absolute mistake lol 😅😅😅 fixed (I hope!!)
What was it?
I was so confused 😂
Can it be used under the eyes?
Can I use this for under eye darkk circle?
No,it has specifically written not to use it in your eye area!
Can I use it on my body and then apply a cream with low percentage salicylic acid and 10% urea?
Can i use it on the 😼? For brightening?
I'm going to use it there
Hi do you think this is safe for use for breastfeeding moms?
Thanks cassandra I'm with zain obagi
Can this help to remove strawberry skin???
Can you do a dive into Bubble brand?! Supposed to be a drunk elephant dupe without the price tag. I tried to turn and learn and they seem different but it seems like a decent product?
Could you do something on excessive facial sweating?
Oooo like hyper hydrosis?
Yes please!!
I use this on my feet, calves and forearms. It's amazing! Makes and keeps things smooth and non-crusty. xD
I use AHA7 by cosrx on my face and neck cos my face loves/prefers the apple water (pyrus malus).
I literally put that all over my body until I ran out and upgraded to the body retinol by Nécessaire
Can you make a video about perioral dermatitis??
I have struggled with this on and off for YEARS. Currently treating 6 weeks with doxycycline. Works every time. Go to your doctor and get an oral prescription. Topical treatments are not near as effective.
I use it on my KP 😊
Does it helps with dark circles?
I use it on my forearms and hands every night (along with other products) to fight sun damage.
So smart!! Do you use an spf during the day? If yes which one?
@@CassandraBankson Every day.
Can you put it inbtween thighs
OMGG PLS TRY THE BRAND KLUED THEIR PRODUCTS ARE AMAZING LIKE THEIR 2% SA CLEANSER ITS HAS ALLANTOIN CERAMIDE AND MORE SOOTHING
How often can I use under my armpits?
People use it as a deodorant daily, so, whatever you can tolerate. Though if you're using it for pigmentation reasons for example, every day might be needlessly excessive, I have no idea.
Can I use this on my feet ?
It will make your feet super soft.. have tried it it works. I use cotton wool to dab it all over my feet especially the heel area. Try it. Do it every other day to start with. I’m totally pleased with the results. I have had no bad reaction
Can it be used on eye area specially eyelids? I look like a panda nowadays 💀
Estoy en Brasil lo puedo conseguir
Ok but do I shower right after using it on my pits?
nope
Oh God, she talks so much just get to the point. And we get it. You’re a medical asset a.k.a. you’re not a nurse or a doctor.

Heyy, can anybody tell me how to use it to treat dark inner thighs, plz in dire need!!!!
we don't stan doja anymore
Yup she is very rude to her fans, and can't handle criticism, very sensitive and narcissist... She can't even take compliments
Whaaaa please tell what happened I live under a rock
Bbbyyyeeeyyyeee😂
Acid and armpits kinda scares me, tbh.
I don't get this product. It's so weak that it doesn't even make difference if you put it on your face...
I've been using it for years and I struggle to notice it doing anything. Can apply it every day like it's water. Some people's skin is just totally fine with certain things (but then sometimes freak out about something else). I started tretinoin and, nothin'.
I Just use glycolic acid to better break down that "glue" between the dead skin cells, so as I can more effectively use a peeling gel in the shower to collect it all up. My skin just suckkkks at getting rid of dead skin cells! so it's no wonder the glycolic acid wasn't doing shit (from what I could tell), because the dead skin cells were still there, just, looser.
That just my skin issue though. Took me 10 years to figure this out lol.
Informative video but you talk too fast. Please slow down.
Nah we don't stan that queen
