Skin Perfecting 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant
The holiest of holy grails for preventing acne, minimizing pores and treating sebaceous filaments! It’s strong, but doesn’t feel harsh or damaging, even on my very sensitive skin.
🌹 How I use it: At night, after double cleansing, I take a few drops of this product in my palm and then use my clean fingers to press it into my face (skip the cotton pads). I wait a few minutes for it to soak in, then finish my routine.
🌹 Note: Since this is a strong product, I try to make sure the rest of my routine is gentle and soothing — you don’t want to layer this with other acids. Also, as others have mentioned, using this 1-2 times a day is WAY more than you need in my opinion! Even two nights in a row can leave my face feeling irritated. I use it 2 times a week on non-consecutive nights, alternating with tretinoin and a night off.
It can be expensive, but I only use a little bit 2 times a week, so it lasts a while. You can always try the travel size first!
Also, this is a strong product, so watch for signs of over-exfoliation — stinging, redness, sensitivity, breakouts — and be sure to take a break to let your skin recover as necessary.
