Acids (AHA, BHA, PHA)

[stradivarius]

Hello sisses! Gaano katagal ang hinintay nyo bago kayo nakagamit ng AHA/BHA everyday? Sabi kasi sa simula, 2x a week for a few weeks. Then increase to 3x a week for a few weeks, until kayanin na ng skin ang every day.
OK na ba yung one month na 2x a week lang tapos the next month, every day na? Thank you!

^^ Dahil may vitamin c... Natawa naman ako. hahaha. thanks sis! I don't plan on using the oil naman sa umaga. Hehe. Saka baka 2x a week ko lang gagamitin. Pang-alternate lang din sa LG, tret and sleeping masks ko.

May tingling na yung cosrx aha sakin. Dahil ba every mwf ako naka bha-aha tapos everyday bha? Dapat naka pixi glow tonic din ako sa non aha days kaso out of stock pa din.

Hi mga sis, nagbasa basa ako ng mga blogs about acids. Particularly yung kay snowwhite and mas naappreciate ko yung bha at aha.

Ask ko lang gumagamit paba kayo ng ph adjusting toners pag nag aacids kayo? If yes, ano? Plano ko sana yung cosrx aha/bha clarifying toner kaso parang hindi maganda effect kay snowwhite.

Eh what if gumamit ako ng cosrx good morning cleanser (may mababang ph level cleanser), edi ko na need ng ph adjusting correct ba?

Depende din kasi, pag itchy and very dry, I stop for one or 2 nights to let my skin heal, serums/oil and moisturiser lang.

[budzwhiz]

^^ Tama. Kaso yang mga pH-balanced cleansers na yan depende pa sa pH ng water. Lol pero IMO that's too much ek-ek na. Haha. Okay na yung magdepend sa cleanser or toner. Sa akin okay naman yung Cosrx AHA/BHA.

How to properly apply acids using (clean) hands? Same po sa lahat ng acids?

(In particular Cosrx, Mizon)
Gentle patting motion like essence?
Tap?
Wipe hands against skin (I'm doing this sa AHA/BHA toner, mali ba?)

[ataypool]

^Ginawa ko noon first use of Liquid Gold and P50, no cotton, ang sakit! So I use cotton now by dabbing it gently pag may time. Pag antok na, I wipe it quick (may konting hapdi pero tinitiis ko pag grabe antok). CosRX and Mizon baka less ang tapang niya, you can try. Your hands or fingers can also look younger than your face. :-)

^^cotton  try mo both kung anong mas type mo. Pero ok yung cotton pads ok din yung sa althea ang nipis lang

P50 too harsh on my face now that I'm using it with Retin A .05. 2 days nang may patches of red, dryness, itchiness and peeling however tret with Liquid Gold works well. Buti na lang sample bottle lang binili ko.

Where to buy CosRX? I want to try sana.

At last na-try ko na kagabi yung CosRx AHA liquid powder.  Ok naman at walang allergic reaction ang skin ko.  ok lang bang 3x a week sa simula? or kelangan na 2x a week talaga?

[angelvenus]

Hi sis. Ask ko lang paano ang skin regimen niyo with alpha liquid gold if isasabay sa tret? Everyday ba ang liquid gold niyo? Thanks

[ataypool]

^night after Alpha H I use tret. 2 or 3 times a week ako with Alpha H and tret, depends on the dryness and peeling. I let them 'heal' by just moisturising with oils and cream and using my serums on the nights I don't use them.

[budzwhiz]

^^ Mine once a week lang ang Alpha H if with tret, without naman twice. Yun lang kaya itolerate ng skin ko.

I experienced tingling and redness from Pixi Glow Tonic. I was advised to add water to the cotton to dilute the formula because my moisture barrier might be damaged. Currently using some Mandom products to help me with this. I want to try CosRX, BR P50 (especially the mild formula) sana mas hiyang sa akin.

[angelvenus]

Sisses regarding alpha liquid gold, nakalagay kasi sa sephora dapat wala na iadd na creams on top of alpha liquid gold. Paano ginagawa niyo? Gusto ko kasi isabay siya with my serums and creams. Hope you can advice.
Thanks sisses in advance.

[budzwhiz]

^ Mas effective kasi sis kapag Liquid Gold lang. Pero pwede pa rin naman mag-lagay underneath or on top, wait ka lang 30 mins. before/after iapply LG. Personally, meron talaga ako Liquid Gold nights na, yun nga, LG lang ang nilalagay.

[ataypool]

^agree with this and never tried putting creams/serums on the same night. Sa website nila it says best results with just this (like giving your skin a workout). Maski wala akong retin-A basta may liquid gold ako I'm okay.
