  • Our take on the The Ordinary Acne Set

    The Ordinary Acne Set bundles three full-size staples: the Salicylic Acid 2% Cleanser, the Natural Moisturizing Factors + HA cream, and a salicylic acid blemish treatment. It targets oily and combination skin prone to breakouts, pairing a gentle exfoliating cleanser with ceramide-rich hydration so treatment does not leave skin tight. The set is fragrance-free and free of mineral oil, parabens and gluten. Against buying the pieces separately, it is a straightforward starter routine; against stronger prescription-style regimens, it is milder and slower, which most reviewers see as the point.

    Questions and answers

    Is this set good for sensitive skin?
    It is fragrance-free, but salicylic acid can still sting sensitive skin. Start with the cleanser every other day and patch-test the treatment.
    Can I use it every day?
    Yes, but build up slowly. Once-daily cleansing and moisturizing is fine; use the spot treatment only on blemishes.
    Does it include sunscreen?
    No. Salicylic acid increases sun sensitivity, so add a separate broad-spectrum sunscreen to your morning routine.
    What is in the box?
    A salicylic acid cleanser, a Natural Moisturizing Factors + HA moisturizer, and a salicylic acid blemish treatment.
    Is it suitable for men?
    Yes. The formulas are unisex and fragrance-free, and suit oily or combination skin regardless of gender.
    How does it compare with buying the products separately?
    You get the same three products in one box, which simplifies starting a routine. There is no extra serum or sunscreen, so add those if you need them.
