Lactic Acid 5% + HA

product review positives
𝘈𝘣𝘰𝘢𝘡: ☁️ β€œA milder exfoliator that works to reveal smoother skin.” ☁️ ph 3.60 - 3.80 🐰 vegan and cruelty free π˜’π˜¦π˜Ί π˜ͺ𝘯𝘨𝘳𝘦π˜₯π˜ͺ𝘦𝘯𝘡𝘴: ☁️ 5% Lactic acid which is an AHA that offers gentle exfoliation of the skins surface. ☁️ Tasmanian pepperberry extract which helps reduce irritation and sensitivity caused by usage of acids. π˜”π˜Ί 𝘦𝘹𝘱𝘦𝘳π˜ͺ𝘦𝘯𝘀𝘦: πŸ’­ This was my first experience with chemical exfoliation and I chose this product because it is targeted towards dry skin, which is my skin type. It's also great for beginners since it has a low concentration of lactic acid. The exfoliator is supposed to target uneven skin tone, textural irregularities and dullness. I did not experience stinging or burning sensation when I used this product. I applied it 2x a week in my pm routine.
product review negatives
However, when I started using this product more regularly little bumps popped up all along my jaw which I have never seen before. My skin also started looking redder than usual and kind of splotchy (my friends even pointed out how bad my skin looked πŸ™ƒ)… I thought that I might have introduced the product into my routine too quickly so I stopped using it for a while and focused on repairing my skin barrier until the bumps disappeared. I gave it a shot again recently but even though I only applied it once the same bumps appeared on my skin the next day AGAIN, so I immediately stopped using it. I really wanted to like this product but I guess it just goes to show that not every product will work for you and that's ok! Thank you so much for reading my review! πŸ₯°

I’m sorry about your experience. This was my first leave-on exfoliant and it really came through.
