FAQ

Everything you need to know about BHA exfoliation

BHA (Beta Hydroxy Acid), also known as salicylic acid, is a chemical exfoliant that penetrates deep into the pores. It works by dissolving the oils and dead skin cells that clog pores, helping to unclog them from within. BHA is particularly effective for oily and acne-prone skin types.
Yes, most people can use BHA daily, but it depends on your skin sensitivity and the strength of the product. Our 1% BHA is gentle enough for daily use, while we recommend starting with our 2% BHA every other day and increasing to twice daily as tolerated. However, if you are new to BHA exfoliants, you can start with 2-3 times per week to allow your skin to acclimate.
Our 1% BHA is ideal for sensitive, rosacea-prone skin, providing gentle exfoliation with minimised irritation. Our 2% BHA is more potent and delivers advanced strength exfoliation, making it perfect for oily, combination, or acne-prone skin that needs stronger treatment. Choose the BHA strength based on your skin type and tolerance level.
Yes, but with caution. BHA pairs well with hydrating ingredients and antioxidants. However, avoid combining BHA with other strong actives like vitamin A, vitamin C, or AHAs on the same day, as this can lead to irritation. Use them on alternate days or apply them at different times of day to allow your skin to adjust properly.
BHA exfoliation can slightly increase sun sensitivity as exfoliated skin becomes more exposed and vulnerable to UV damage. Always apply a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen daily, even on cloudy days. Consider using BHA in your evening routine and always protect your skin with sunscreen when going outdoors during the day.
