Sun Week - Day 4 - Chemical Exfoliants

Chemical exfoliants like retinoids (Retin-A, tazorac, etc.), alpha hydroxy acids (glycolic acid, lactic acid), and salicylic acid, can make your skin more sensitive to the sun. Be extra aware of sun protection if you are using any of these products.

    Wow, 10-15 min, a sunburn! Maybe I do need to get an SPF because I like to use the AHA.

    Yeah, I’m only 20 but I’ve been using SPF since 15 or 16. I know how crucial it is, and I completely agree with Dan. Not wearing a SPF is very hazardous for skin. It can cause skin cancer, skin discoloration, and it can age skin prematurely and cause wrinkles.
