TO peeling solution and PC BHA liquid exfoliant

Can I use the ordinary 30 AHA 2 BHA peeling solution once a week and the Paula’s Choice 2% BHA liquid exfoliant for the remaining 6 days of the week? I don’t have any issues with TO peeling solution as I have used it for weeks. Same with PC liquid exfoliant, I’ve used it on a daily basis and no irritation. Just wondering if I can use both products in the same week.

That is a lot of exfoiliation 😅 since you have used PC’s everyday of the week and not noticed any irritation (hopefully), your skin must be really resilient and be able to handle that. I know some people would suggest to not use it so much but I have seen people who use 2% salicylic acid everyday and their skin is fine with it - just be extremely careful and make note of any irritation/compromised barrier on your skin, and follow up with a good hydrating routine as the PC’s one can be quite drying. In general though, many skins don’t really need this much exfoilaition. Too much can lead to even more issues and you may not notice it now but you may see it in the future. I wouldn’t use both of these in the same week personally - the ordinary peel is extremely potent and it’s 30% AHA content along with BHA 2% is of good use once a week. I’d probably use the peel on one week, and then the second week I’d use the PC’s. You might like to try cut down on your PC’s usuage to 2/3 times a week if you feel your doing too much and are noticing excessive dryness/breakouts/sensitivity to your products.

I wouldn't do that actually. Cz TO aha bha percentage is more than enough. So if I do only bha 2% for the next days it still too much for my skin as i gone through a strong peeling. So for safety either use the TO or the Paula's choice
