My face cant tolerate most exfoliants either plus niacinamide , I recently just got azelaic acid though and it works wonders and is the only one that doesn’t break me out.

Try the Paula’s Choice Mandelic acid and lactic acid exfoliant! It’s gentle on the skin. My skin hates salicylic acid tho 😭

Two months of sheer terror and ugly and hundred of dollars spent so here’s the solution. Finally getting over it so trust me: At night 1. Double cleanse and use a soft wash towel for the second cleanse instead of rinsing directly. I use Dieux as 2nd cleanser. 2. Mandelic acid 3 nights a week tops! 3. Followed by super light application of Aestera lotion (like 1/2 a pump). During the day wash cloth cleanse if you’re oily. Then moisturizer and SPF (I use Sofie Pavitt for both. Do not listen to anyone about skin flooding or special serums. It seems the more water on my face the more severe the breakout hence the wash cloth as a substitute. After three months incorporate a retinol. Satin pillowcases, not cotton. Good luck diva

You could have an allergy. I stop breaking out when I used it. I now use lactic acid to exfoliate… it’s an aha.

Not invalidating your experience but I have oily, sensitive, acne prone skin and love chemical exfoliation. I’m on spironolactone, tret, azelaic acid, and birth control for my acne. I love the first aid beauty radiance glow pads. In my early days of healing my acne, I purged bad with chemical exfoliation but it was because of the accelerated cell turnover.

Mine is. Gentle cleanser and building up is the way🙈 I use retinol, glycolic acid, and salicylic acid. I started with benzoyl peroxide cream twice daily though which I also built up to

Salicylic acid is derived from willow bark, so you could be allergic to it

I be exfoliating but I’m not consistent tbh and I like to use mandelic acid 5%. Salicylic acid is too harsh for my skin I haven’t used it in years and glycolic acid burns my skin I hate it.

I used to use wishtrend mandelic acid toner on dry skin after cleansing. I now use the Tony Moly Exfoliating Enzyme Cleanser in the morning. Its a powder cleanser and I only pour about a nickel sized amount. I wash my face with my regular cleanser first, then I use the enzyme face wash as a mask for like ~30 secs. Both worked great for me as someone whose face can't stand salicylic and glycolic acid.

I have acne prone skin & the only exfoliate that works for my skin is Paula’s choice I swear by it & I also use niacinimide/hyaluronic acid. You gotta stick to what works for you while on actives. Keep your skin moisturizer simple & routine basic.
