Top 7 The Ordinary Skincare Products in Malaysia
1. The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% (30ml)
The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% is one of the best The Ordinary products for acne and blemish-prone skin, and is the best-selling The Ordinary product in Malaysia.
Many Malaysians have combination or oily skin with acne, and this helps with blemishes, skin texture, congestion and controlling oil production.
Niacinamide or vitamin B3 improves the skin’s moisture-retention abilities, regulates oil production and also brightens dull skin and acne scars, while zinc repairs skin damaged by acne and congestion.
It also comes in a larger The Ordinary Supersize Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% (60ml) too for even more value!
What Malaysians say:
I expected so high for this product and it actually worked!!! I have bought this product twice now and it works like a charm. Really helped me to remove acne scars and help my inflamed acne to reduce its redness. Really recommend to people with acne prone skin and scars – Nony
Have been using this for a year and have extremely oily skin. It changed my skin so much reducing oil production and preventing break outs as well as reducing the appearance of my pores. – Lina
2. The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 (30ml)
The Ordinary Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 is a water-based hydrating serum, and one of the most popular The Ordinary products sold in Malaysia.
It contains three different weights of hyaluronic acid, which pulls moisture from the air and infuses it into the skin.
This means it’s amazing for Malaysian weather which is super high in humidity. There is A LOT of moisture in the air that can be pulled into the skin.
Vitamin B5 or panthenol also helps to boost surface hydration and supports the skin barrier.
It has a lightweight watery consistency that sinks into the skin quickly – it can feel a bit sticky at first, but that’s common with hyaluronic acid serums.
What Malaysians say:
Highly recommend this product! My skin always feels so hydrated and plump after apply! – Sara
I love this product ? Price is amazing Great for hydration, I always go back to this, squalene cleanser and NMF as my whole routine. – Jess
3. The Ordinary Alpha Arbutin 2% + HA Concentrated Serum (30ml)
The Ordinary Alpha Arbutin 2% + HA is a potent fast-absorbing serum that is used to even out skin tone and lighten dark spots and hyperpigmentation.
It is one of the most popular The Ordinary products we sell, and our customers love how effective it is on hyperpigmentation!
It contains a high 2% concentration of Alpha Arbutin which is double the standard 1% concentration for faster effects.
It is formulated with Hyaluronic Acid to help boost absorption while hydrating and plumping.

I have hyperpigmentation for many years and this was the only product that helped clear my skin! Been using for over a month and notice big improvement! Already on my second bottle and will always buy more. My skin can’t live without it anymore! – Mimi
4. The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Toning Solution (240ml)
You might have seen this one on TikTok ?.
Designed to smooth skin texture and brighten dull, lacklustre skin tone, The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Toning Solution contains – you guessed it – 7% glycolic acid.
This is our best-selling toner, and our customers love it’s large size, effectiveness and that it can be used all over the body.
Amino acids, aloe vera, ginseng and Tasmanian pepperberry help to reduce irritation that can occur when using a chemical exfoliant.
It also has plenty of other uses, including as a deodorant, for body acne, and more!
What Malaysians say:

I have combination skin and this product really refreshes my skin and leaves a smoother texture after cleansing. Worth the price because the bottle lasts me for many months! – Yee Vonn
5. The Ordinary Natural Moisturizing Factors + HA (100ml)
The Ordinary Natural Moisturizing Factors + HA contains natural moisturising factors (NMF) to keep the outer layer of the skin protected and well-hydrated.
The lightweight, oil-free formula also uses hyaluronic acid and amino acids to hydrate all skin types both instantly, and over time.
Isn’t as watery as other moisturisers, and can feel a bit “dry” because it is lightweight and non-greasy.
Malaysians love the 100ml size to get the most bang for their buck.
What Malaysians say:
Such a good basic moisturiser! Love that there is no fragrance or silicone and it doesn’t make me break out. Its very lightweight and I feel as though it leaves my skin with the perfect amount of hydration and not greasy or oily. This paired with the HA serum is just too good. – Bhuvana
When I first started using, it took some time to get used to. As someone that has always used more ‘fluid’ moisturisers, this one was quite different. It has a thicker formulation, when rubbed in hands & warmed up, creates a white, sunscreen like cream. But on my dry cheeks and oily T-zone, this moisturiser is amazing! Very nourishing and hydrating, but not too heavy. It absorbs into the skin quickly and leave the skin feeling refreshed. The only piece of advice I would add is – BUY THE BIGGER 100ML SIZE!! It’s very easy to go through the small 30ml tube quickly! – ZD
6. The Ordinary Retinol 0.2% in Squalane (30ml)
The Ordinary Retinol 0.2% in Squalane has a whole host of benefits including – reducing fine lines and wrinkles, evening out skin tone and improving elasticity and texture for younger, bouncier-looking skin.
Retinol can be irritating to the skin, so this light 0.2% concentration is low and a great starting retinol product!
One of the most popular The Ordinary skincare products that we sell on myeppo, customers report seeing reduced fine lines and brighter skin
What Malaysians say:
This is my first retinol product. I started with the 0.2 as I have sensitive acne prone and oily skin. Luckily it doesn’t irritate my skin at all. I did have light tingling on the first night but nothing after that. I have been slowly building from once a week to three times. I have started noticing a smoother texture to my skin, which is great. – TJ
Cannot recommend this product more. Feels great on the skin, great results, easy application and not too thick so can be layered with other products. Love applying this before bed and using a Jade roller for better product absorption, I wake up in the morning glowing! – Steph
7. The Ordinary Buffet
The Ordinary Buffet is an all-rounder serum that helps to improve the signs of ageing.
It contains a blend of 6 peptides, 11 amino acids and multiple weights of hyaluronic acid that deeply hydrates the skin and fights visible signs of ageing like fine lines and wrinkles.
The watery serum consistency layers really well with other products, and is suitable for all skin types.
Perfect for Malaysians whose skin is under the sun a lot and have started to develop fine lines and tired, dull skin.
What Malaysians say:
I’ve been using this product for a month and my skin is plumper and more hydrated now than it ever has been! I use it daily withthe Niacinamide and they work really well together! I cannot get enough of this product! – Nurul
This is my favourite must have product. I use it every day morning and night before my other serums and creams. Love the results! Can see changes in my forehead and mouth area with less fine lines and wrinkles, and my skin feels bouncier – Christina
