The Ordinary - The Bright Set is a curated 4-step routine designed to cleanse, exfoliate, brighten, and target dark circles for visibly healthier, more radiant skin. It includes the Squalane Cleanser for gentle, moisturizing makeup removal; the Caffeine Solution 5% + EGCG to reduce puffiness and dark circles around the eyes; the Ethylated Ascorbic Acid 15% Solution to improve uneven tone and signs of aging; and the Glycolic Acid 7% Toning Solution to mildly exfoliate for clearer, glowing skin.
Perfect for normal, combination, and oily skin types, this set addresses dullness, uneven texture, acne, and fine lines, making it ideal for those seeking a simple yet powerful brightening routine.
The Ordinary - The Bright Set
- Squalane Cleanser - Dispense product into hands. Rub together to warm the product, allowing it to melt into an oil. Massage well onto dry face. Rinse with warm water.
- Caffeine Solution 5% + EGCG - Apply a small amount onto the eye contour in the morning and evening.
- Ethylated Ascorbic Acid 15% Solution - Apply a few drops to the face in the morning and evening. Avoid the eye contour and contact with eyes. Use sun protection during the day.
- Glycolic Acid 7% Toning Solution - Use no more frequently than once daily, ideally in the evening. After cleansing, saturate a cotton pad with the formula and sweep across the face and neck. Do not use on sensitive, peeling, or compromised skin. Avoid the eye contour and contact with eyes. Do not rinse off. Continue with additional skincare products as needed. Contact of the product with the skin must be of limited frequency or duration.
