The Ordinary, skin care named after what is in it

The Ordinary built its reputation on straightforward, ingredient-led skincare, and this collection brings together a wide cross-section of that range for shoppers in Lebanon: acid toners, vitamin C, peptides, niacinamide and a dedicated lash and brow serum. Each formula is named after its key ingredient and concentration rather than marketing language, which makes it easier to compare products and build a routine around what your skin actually needs. If you're assembling several steps at once, our Brands Bundles page is worth a look for The Ordinary skincare sets alongside other bundled options.

How to read The Ordinary's labelling

The Ordinary names most products after their core ingredient and strength, so the label is your starting point. THE ORDINARY Glycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating Toner and the AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution are exfoliating treatments meant for occasional use rather than daily cleansing, so always read the full usage guidance on the packaging before adding one to your routine. For oily and blemish-prone skin, THE ORDINARY Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% Serum is one of the range's most recognised formulas, and it sits well alongside our broader Acne & Oily Routine selection if you'd like to compare complementary steps. Vitamin C is represented here by the Vitamin C Suspension 23% + HA Spheres 2%, which you can browse against other brightening formats in our Serum Vitamin C and Creams collection. If you're newer to actives, the Dermocosmetic collection is a useful place to browse gentler, skin-focused options first.

Choosing within The Ordinary range

Think about texture, ingredient family and finish as much as the name on the bottle. THE ORDINARY RETINAL 0.2% Emulsion is a higher-strength nighttime retinoid format, best paired with reading our Anti-Aging Routine guidance and the Fine Lines & Firmness collection for related steps. The Azelaic Acid Suspension 10% Cream and Alpha Arbutin 2% + HA are aimed at uneven-looking skin tone and redness-prone complexions, while THE ORDINARY Caffeine Solution 5% + EGCG is formulated for the eye area specifically. THE ORDINARY MULTI-PEPTIDE + HA Serum targets firmness and elasticity, and can be browsed alongside other options in our general Serum collection. The Natural Moisturizing Factors + HA is a finishing-step hydrator that fits well with the Moisturizer collection or the Hydration Routine range. For lash and brow density, THE ORDINARY Multi-Peptide Lash and Brow Serum pairs naturally with our Hair Care Products range, and the Argireline Solution 10% rounds out the line's expression-focused formulas.

Anyone introducing a new acid, retinoid or active for the first time should patch-test and space new products into a routine gradually. A pharmacist can help you sequence actives like glycolic acid, niacinamide or retinaldehyde so they don't overlap in ways your skin isn't ready for — check the full ingredient list and usage guidance on each label, and ask our team if you're unsure what to pair.
