“My night time routine is where I use more concentrated exfoliating acid cleansers. I exfoliate one to two times a week with Biopelle’s 10% glycolic acid cleanser. The main ingredient is glycolic acid, a water-soluble alpha hydroxy acid (AHA), which sloughs away dead skin cells for more radiant, even-toned skin. It also unclogs pores which is great for my acne-prone skin. For those who are not used to acids in their skin care, you will get stinging the first couple of times you use the product but it eventually stops as your skin adjusts to it. I’ll recommend it for those with acne and oily skin but not those with sensitive skin as they might find it too hash.”
