[misc] recovering from BHA overuse / DRY AF SKIN
Author Summary
whisp1es is in MISC
Post Body

i normally have combo-oily skin and accidentally used a toner with BHA in it for a week straight. my bad for not reading the label but it resulted in warm to the touch, red, dry AF scaly skin.

went to my appointment for laser hair removal on my face and my esthetician was like nope, go home and gave me a cream to take care of it. (triamcinolone acetonide)

the temperature dropped pretty intensely this last week and with all of these things combined my skin is no longer angry about the BHA but dry as hell. still scaly on the parts of my face that are normally average, and then just normal on the parts of my face that are regularly oily.

does anyone have any advice on how to remedy this? my normal moisturizer works well when my skin is fine but it’s not enough now and i’m getting very dry/itchy 2-3 hours after application.

help :(
