When to exfoliate?

Hey guys! Recently I just started using chemical exfoliants and I wanted to ask when you guys put it in your routine Nd what does it clash with? I rotate between Benton Bha aloe toner and wishtrend mandelic acid. I read that it shouldnt be used with vitamin c which I have been doing in the past so I really want to correct my routine Edit: exfoliate in morning or evening

So I don't like exfoliating toners....just not my favorite delivery mechanism. I like either this salicylic acid cleanser, which I use after my foaming cleanser, or this wonderful wash-off mask (and I am *not* into wash-off masks, generally)! I usually exfoliate once a week in the evenings!

I use the Isntree Chestnut BHA liquid after cleansing my face every other day. AHA and BHA should not be used with vitamin C or retinoids. If you apply BHA or AHA in the morning make sure to apply SPF 😊
