Hello,
I currently use a zinc soap bar with cetaphil gentle cleanser, Benton BHA aloe toner (0.5% BHA), with the regimens 2.5% benzoyl peroxide and the regimens 10% glycolic acid lotion as the moisturizer (I also have the regimens regular moisturizer, which I used to mix half and half with the glycolic, but for whatever reason my skin doesn't like the moisturizer as much anymore).
Anyway, I'm trying to go up to 1% BHA in a toner, and one of the only ones I can find that also has calming ingredients like the benton one, is the Exposed skin clearing tonic with the following ingredients:Active Ingredient: Salicylic Acid (1.0%) Inactive Ingredients: water, glycolic acid, propylene glycol, azelaic acid, hamamelis virginiana (witch hazel) distillate, dimethylethanolamine, phenoxyethanol, sodium hydroxide, camellia sinensis (green tea) leaf extract, passiflora edulis (passion) flower extract, aloe barbadensis leaf extract, salvia officinalis (sage) leaf extract, fragrance.
However, since it also includes glycolic acid and azelaic acid, I wasn't sure if that was too many actives to add with the regimens benzoyl peroxide and glycolic acid lotion?
The other option is the Exposed skin care clear pore serum with the following ingredients:Active Ingredient: Salicylic Acid (1.0%) Inactive Ingredients: water, hamamelis virginiana (witch hazel) distillate, propylene glycol, glycerin, spiraea ulmaria (meadowsweet) extract , polyacrylate crosspolymer-6, triethanolamine, dl panthenol, glycyrrhiza glabra (licorice) root extract , camellia sinensis (green tea) leaf extract , fragrance, ocimum basilicum (basil) extract.
Or would this one be a better fit with the benzoyl peroxide and glycolic acid?
Thanks in advance for any advice!
