Has anyone tried Biologique Recherche p50 lotion pigm400?

I don't know if this is breakout or purging from this product. I'm okay with cosrx aha and cosrx bha but I give this BR a try but it is really pricey that's why I'm hesitant to stop using this 😹

I haven’t try out this product yet but it does contain vitamin c so it might be purging !! U may continue to use this product & observe if ur skin turns well aft a few weeks !! ☺️☺️ ** if it’s a breakout, then it’s better to stop continue using it

I have this, I’m not surprised you purged because it is STRONG. The smell alone is enough to make me pass out 😂 but it’s such a highly spoken about product that you’ll probably see great results with consistent use. I haven’t really reached for it much.

I'm just thinking why I got bumps in forehead and cheeks. My forehead is totally clear before. Also I'm doing okay using cosrx bha and cosrx aha so I know my face is already used to actives but I don't know. Do you use BR everyday?

Active ingredients such as the acids in your P50 may cause purging. I’m sorry you had to go through this. I hope it goes away soon. I have the P50 Phenol-free version which is stronger than the PIGM400 and I can not use it everyday. I started with once a week then twice a week then now, at most is thrice a week. I did not experience purging. I use azelaic acid after the P50 then layer hydrating and moisturizing products. How often do you use your P50 PIGM400? It is still strong compared to Asian exfoliators. It might be good to lessen your frequency of use and observe how your skin reacts. Maybe you need to use it only a few times a week.

Oh no. Two times a day is too much especially if you just started using it. P50 is potent! Your skin might be experiencing a compromised skin barrier. Please heal and strengthen your skin barrier first. Stop using P50 and other actives like AHA, BHA, retinol, or L-ascorbic acid for a few days. Use gentle and super hydrating products. Use rich moisturizers. When your skin feels and looks better, introduce actives slowly. Yes, you can start using P50 twice a week and only once a day. Then increase the frequency after a week or two. Some can use it everyday and you may get to that point too, but please ease into it. Be patient and let your skin get used to the ingredients slowly. I hope this helps.
