I can't be thankful enough to have found BHA as it has been helping my acne and skin tremendously. When I started using The Ordinary SA 2% all over my skin, my active acne has definitely subside and the irritation reduced. However at that time, my bottle was already opened for a while and it has changed colour slightly.
So when The Inkey List launched their BHA product, I bought it immediately! This didn't disappoint at all and I love using it. It reduce the irritation overnight and no more bumps. Sometimes I even mix it with Niacinamide or Lactic Acid.
