I'm quite new to the forum and the acne.org site and I'm still finding my way around. I'm currently experimenting with BHAs but not really getting any results. I have a couple more to try before I move onto AHAs and see if they work any better. I just wondered if anyone had any recommendations for AHAs that are suitable for sensitive skin? I also prefer products that contain as little ingredients as possible other than the active ones.

The Acne.org AHA is awesome! It helped speed up getting rid of all those red acne marks left behind by acne.

Start of slow with it by combining it with moisturizer...then eventually you can use a full face of it on its own. It is definitely a game changer to my skin care regimen.

SkinMedica AHA/BHA brightening cream changed my skin for the better. I mix a small amount with aloe and moisturizer and apply twice a day. My skin is sensitive in every way (rashes, redness, i get it all) and this stuff makes my skin smooth and keeps it calm.

Hi TaneBabe, I'm currently using a AHA/BHA lotion after not seeing any results with BHA alone. Did you ever try BHA alone by itself? I haven't seen any (positive) results from it and I'm wondering if the combination is better.
