As I have already mentioned you skin type will also determine whether these ingredients are safe to use, so always check with a medical professional before applying any new formulas to your face.
Soak a cotton disc with an exfoliating toner enriched in salicylic acid and sweep it around the face, avoiding the eye area
Whilst the skin is still slightly damp, apply a serum enriched in hyaluronic acid to lock moisture into the skin and counteract the drying effects of salicylic acid and retinol
Follow this with an eye cream, remembering to use your ring finger for application to avoid skin tugging
Apply another serum or face oil packed with retinol all over the skin avoiding the eyes and mouth
Lock extra nourishment into the skin with a rich moisturiser
Can I use BHA in the morning?
Yes, you can but many feel that because BHA, such as salicylic acid often increases the skin’s sensitivity to UV exposure leading to skin damage. This is why you’ll find many apply a BHA enriched product in the evening as this will allow the ingredient to work on the skin undisturbed whilst you sleep. Not forgetting to follow this with a daily SPF of 30 and above to keep the skin surface fully protected from further skin damage.
There you have a little more information about mixing retinol and AHA with BHA, don’t forget if you have any more skincare questions come and follow us on Instagram, you’ll find me in the direct messages, see you there!
