The concentration of the AHA/BHA toner is quite low and most probably wonât show immediate purging. The possible cause maybe that your skin barrier is already weak to begin with such that AHA/BHA can quickly causes an irritation on your skin. Before the toner, have you ever introduce other exfoliating acids* or retinoid* or benzoyl peroxide* in your routine?
Since your skin is currently irritated, I would highly recommend to stop using it! You may patch test it on skin region behind your ear to test it out again after a few days. If irritation still occurs, you may want to slowly introduce it in your routine. Rules of thumb, avoid using exfoliating acids daily. As your skin barrier seemed to be weak, you should try using it 2-3times per week, mon wed fri or so. Avoid using it with the three ingredients stated above with a â*â. Always use a sunscreen the next day after using it, and that use the toner at your PM routine.
The mentioned weak skin barrier can be remedied with moisturizer that consists of ceramidesđ

Hi there, there are many factors which lead to acne, and hormones maybe one of the top causes. If your skin doesnât show any signs of irritation before, it could be hormonal change in your body. Sometimes, itâs really hard to figure out the cause. However, we suspect the root of issue being the cosrx instead of hormones as you started breaking out after introducing it to your routine. Since itâs the only change you made, I would strongly recommend to stop using the product and patch test it again after a few days. We canât say for sure what maybe the cause, it maybe the acids or the formulation is just not suitable for your skin. If you were to filter the cosrx toner review into one to two stars, youâll see many facing the same issues.

I would wait a few days before trying again, and then only on one patch of skin. It may have been a reaction to other skincare. Sorry to hear that happened to you!

It's the only thing I've changed, aside from just not using some of the serums I usually use. I probably should've mentioned that in the og post, just in case. When I bought this, I decided I was going to hold off on everything else to try and clear my face up and shrink pores, and then once it's clear I was planning to start doing other things again by adding one thing at a time over a period of days/weeks. Mainly because I'm not extremely well versed in skincare, but I at least know stuff with AHAs/BHAs can be harmful if mixed with the wrong things. So for right now, it's just my usual cleansers and then this toner.

Strenghtening the skin barrier will be crucial, I really think thatâs the issues. Thatâs not purging, itâis a damaged barrier đ˘
