  • Beta Hydroxy Acid (BHA) is an oil-soluble exfoliant renowned for its ability to deeply penetrate pores, effectively exfoliating dead skin cells and unclogging pores. This makes it particularly effective for treating acne and blackheads. With anti-inflammatory properties, BHA helps to calm irritated skin and reduce redness, making it a preferred ingredient in products for sensitive or acne-prone skin. Its deep penetration and exfoliation capabilities also regulate oil production, benefiting those with oily skin. Salicylic acid, the most common BHA, is widely used in acne treatment products for its ability to unclog pores, reduce inflammation, and prevent new breakouts. Additionally, BHA promotes cell turnover, improving the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles for fresher, younger-looking skin. However, like many exfoliating acids, BHA can increase skin sensitivity to the sun, so it is crucial to use sunscreen daily to protect your skin from UV damage.
