Ingredient Dictionary

Hi everyone! I'm starting a skincare journal but also making my own little referral type journal, particularly focusing on ingredients: what concerns they target, what they can be used with in routines and alternate days (AHAs, BHAs, Retinol, Vitamin C, etc). I've been doing lots of research but thought I'd ask here for people to share their knowledge to see if I've maybe missed something or if there's any lesser known gems out there I should check out to add to my information book. Thanks in advance for sharing ☺️

Thank you! The Paula's choice site is more what I'm going for, looking for ingredients as opposed to searching for them 😊

www.incidecoder.com is a good website if you learn since they give you resources. I know that chemist.confessions released book skincare decoded - I plan to buy it, it might be useful. I don't know where are you from, but in some countries you can find books for cosmetic chemistry or books for aestheticians with informaiton on skincare ingredients - they usually cost a lot, but they are totally worth it.

I've tried looking at skincare books and they do look good but I wanted something more personalised hence the journal. Incidecoder looks really good to expand on my already noted ingredients, thank you! 😊
