Can't get a professional facial? This new toner from Glow Recipe will deliver the same glow.
and beta hydroxy acids , too, it's gentle enough to incorporate in your morning and nighttime routines. PHAs, for those unfamiliar, offer the most gentle chemical exfoliation of all the acids. A dermatologist I recently met in Korea swears by PHAs because they don't cause redness or irritation while smoothing her sensitive skin. BHAs, on the other hand, targets oiliness and breakouts. It clears pores by dissolving sebum, according to New York City-based dermatologist Patricia Wexler.
The exact combined percentage of both PHAs and BHAs is 6 percent, which might not seem like a lot, but I swear it's the magic number with acid concentrations. Anything more tends to be too harsh and can give your skin an uncomfortable burning sensation. In my experience, a percentage less than six doesn't work as hard for my skin.
To ensure the acids don't happen to irritate and dry out your skin, they're matched with the same percentage of hyaluronic acid. When your skin is freaking out, keeping it nourished with hydration is just as important as treating your pores, so the even balance is essential for instant and longterm results. It took about a day for the all-over glow effects, but it will take a couple of weeks of daily use to banish breakouts.
