Since this has both AHA + BHA that too strong ones would recommend not to use daily minimize to once a week and then slowly 2-3x week . Also as of now just stop using the product completely and just stick to the basics i.e. - Cleanser ( like CeraVe SA ) followed by moisturizer ( based on skin type - if oily go with gel based like Neutrogena hydro boost and if dry skin then again CeraVe pm moisturizer) and sunscreen in the AM ( whichever one is your favorite & your skin likes ) . Give your skin a break just stick to basics and see if it helps . If it still doesn't gets better give dermatologist a visit . Hope this helps Good luck 👍
