The SkinMedica AHA BHA Exfoliating Cleanser was designed to serve as a gentle yet extremely effective exfoliating cleanser. For many of us, exfoliating cleansers are an excellent multipurpose option as it helps to lightly remove dead skin cells while also removing impurities from the skin. While exfoliating cleansers do not offer the same amount of exfoliation as a leave on product, these types of cleansers can be a great option if you’re new to chemical exfoliants. The Skinmedica Exfoliating Cleanser is especially unique within this category because it contains both AHAs as well as BHAs. This combination of active ingredients ensures that you’re getting an adequate exfoliating treatment at both the surface as well as within the pores to smooth out the skin from both angles. Its also worth noting that this product doesn’t just contain one AHA, but an entire range of alpha hydroxy acids including lactic acid, glycolic acid, citric acid and malic acid to provide a well rounded exfoliation. Finally, jojoba oil rounds out this formula by delivering hydration and nourishment to counteract the more drying aspects of cleansing and exfoliating.

If you have an allergic reaction to one of the ingredients in this product, like retinol, discontinue use of the cream immediately. It’s a good idea to go to a dermatologist before using a new skin cream, to make sure it’s suitable for you. The SkinMedica HA5 review notes that the Vitalize Peel can result in yellowish skin that lasts for up to three hours. Your skin also may look red after the peel. This is completely normal and you should be sure to stay out of the sun or use a physical sunscreen when you do go out. Panzica advises working with a dermatologist or skin care professional to find “a good, lower concentration retinol” to try. For example, one review says, “The texture is smooth due to the silicones so it slides over the face. Not what I wanted. It pills if you put another product over it. Would not recommend it. I will try another brand next time. So disappointed as I was hoping to love it.”
