Ingredient
How should I read beta hydroxy acids on a label?
BHA is a category name often associated with salicylic acid in cosmetics. A product’s use depends on its formula and labeling, not the abbreviation alone.
Rinse-off or leave-on?
Cosmetic ingredient information is not a diagnosis of a blemish concern. We do not turn an oily-feeling answer into a prescription or automatically combine exfoliating products. Check whether a formula is rinse-off or leave-on and follow its specific directions.
Try this
- Check the exact ingredient and use.
- Distinguish rinse-off from leave-on directions.
- Avoid building a stack of active-focused steps by default.
