hello,

i am on the regimen for a few years now and want to add AHA to it.

now my question is if i should use AHA after applying BP at night alone or with moisturizer mixed together for the best result.

my skin is clear but very flaky neutral.gif

Obviously for the best result is AHA+ alone ,but the first times or unitl your skin gets use to it ,either use a very small amount of AHA or mix it with moisturizer.

I find it easier to mixnitnwith my moisturizer. That way I won't forget to put it on!

Mix it in with your moisturizer... Moisturizer acts like a neutralizer for AHA... Personally, using AHA+ alone was extremely irritating to my skin, no matter which way I tried to use it. However, other regimen users have success using it alone as their night moisturizer. It really depends on how sensitive your skin is. Good luck!! :)

Yeah its a good idea to build up to using it straight, but as some have said above, sometimes using it straight is just too irritating. It took me 3 weeks using it every 2-3 nights mixed in with moisturiser until I could use it straight, but the stuff is brilliant....your face should be glowing within a month. Good luck! :)

Hey guys,

I tried AHA+ for the first time last night! I squeezed out a big glob and mixed it with another big glob of moisturizer and a little bit of grapeseed oil which I always mix in. I don't actually think I'll be needing the grapeseed oil when I do this...it ended up way too much/too watery. I add the grapeseed because Dan's regular lotion seems a bit too think and not hydrating enough for me on its own. But the AHA seems a lot more watery and hydrating. So next time, I think I'll just use the AHA and the lotion and stick to mixing the grapeseed on the night's I do the lotion only.

I'm glad I mixed it and didn't apply it straight because it BURNED, even the tiny bit that I used. I actually rubbed the excess on the back of my hands (hands really show a woman's age so I figure it can only help) and it burned so much I had to wash it off. So it's powerful.

I was thinking of doing it every other night. Will this be okay?

Only you can really answer that... but i would leave it 2/3 days to begin with, as mentioned above. I can only use it about once a week, otherwise it over dries my skin.

Ok i applied it first time today. It only burned 10 minutes a little and now everything is fine. I just would like to know if i should expect a little breakout due to AHA till my skin gets used to it or should it help and clear up the skin straight?

In my experience with AHA I didn't had any initial breakout only stinging the first few weeks but that pretty much it.

I used the AHA+ full strength last night.This stuff is amazing. It didn't cause any irritation at all! And when I woke up this morning my skin was all smooth and glowing and some of my red marks were already fading! I'm honestly getting better results with this stuff than I did with my lactic acid chemical peels. :)
