The Ordinary Balance Set Review

[@happythoughts559]

Honestly, I love the set. I work two jobs, 60+ hours a week and when i get home, I’m too tired to research individual skin products. Having it on one set helps save me time (and money). I’ll definitely be purchasing this in the future

[@alishaa3275]

My favourite is probably the natural moisturizing factors since it’s the perfect texture for me since I have really dry skin, no other moisturizer has ever left my skin feeling so soft. Thank you for this!!

[@erikamartinez5552]

My favorite is The Ordinary Vitamin C with HA spheres, it makes your skin glow . I LOVE IT. It have improved my skin tone and my confidence

Salicylic acid helps control my acne. Thanks for all of your info, you’ve helped me a ton!
