Do you sometimes have too many products you need to use up? Have you had a reaction to something and no longer wish to use on your face? Don´t throw it away, have a look at some of these fabulous tips.
Would you think of using Glycolic Acid as a deodorant? I didn´t until one of the Deciem Addicts mentioned it. The fact that I´m allergic to most deodorants made me give this a go and it works (for me)! Some people pour this into a spray bottle, some use a cotton pad and wipe.
Some of the Deciem Addicts also use The Ordinary Glycolic Acid where they have Keratosis Pilaris on their upper arms or thighs.
Marine Hyaluronics makes a fabulous 7 skins toner if you´ve run out of your usual toner and Squalane is fabulous for soft silky lips. Continue reading for more fabulous The Ordinary tips.
Remember – always patch test!
The Ordinary Glycolic Acid
I use The Ordinary Glycolic Acid on my elbows.
I use The Ordinary Glycolic Acid or any other The Ordinary Lactic Acid on my lower legs for razor bumps, ingrown hairs, etc! The Glycolic Acid, I apply to my legs with a cotton pad, and I’ve tried a few drops of Lactic 10% mixed with lotion for my legs too. Both work. FINALLY smooth!
I’ve used The Ordinary Glycolic Acid as a deodorant for about a year now..and hell yeah it works!
I use glycolic acid on my arms where I have keratosis pilaris, anywhere I have ingrown hairs, my under arms, and also great for softening hard dead skin on your feet and elbows!
The Ordinary Amino Acids
Amino Acids for chapped lips
The Ordinary Argan Oil
The Ordinary Argan oil removes waterproof eye makeup like a dream!!
Argan oil and Marine Hylauronics in my hair make it sleek and glossy
The Ordinary Natural Moisturising Factors
Natural moisturizing factors for the under eye area. For me it works wonders as an eye cream. It really helped with the fine lines.
The Ordinary Squalane Oil
Squalane on my toe nails at night after wiping with glycolic.
I love using The Ordinary Buffet + Copper Peptides for scalp. First used it for hydration, now I feel like it would also improve hair growth. Squalane also amazing for scalp, I use it night before washing my hair.
Squalane works best on tangled hair.
I love Squalane on my lips and use an old toothbrush to gently exfoliate with the oil. Leaves lips feeling lovely and smooth.
The Ordinary Rose Hip Seed Oil
The Ordinary Rose Hip Seed Oil in hair to help keep it healthy!
I’ll rub Rose hip oil into my cuticles before bed.
The Ordinary Marine Hyaluronics
For those of you who do 7 Skins (basically 7 layers of a hydrating toner), Marine Hyaluronics works wonders if you´ve run out of your usual toner. 30ml won´t last long with 7 layers!

I use the Lactic Acid on my heels…no more cracks.
