Any good exfoliators?

I have very sensitive, acne-prone skin and i want to start exfoliating. Any recommendations?

Re: Any good exfoliators?

Before you start any exfoliators, make sure you have a good moisturizer and stand-alone sunscreen for daily use, @Leilanilynn🙂

Sunday Riley Good Genes. I've read that chemical exfoliates are preferred over physical ones for sensitive skin.

The Tatcha Rice Polish Foaming Enzyme Powder makes my skin baby smooth without stripping it or being overly abrasive.

@Leilanilynn I rec BHA for acne-prone skin.  You can start with a low concentration like 1% since your skin is sensitive.  Try Paula's Choice - their BHAs are excellent 🙂

Re: Any good exfoliators?

@Leilanilynn I really like Kate Somerville ExfoliKate™ Cleanser Daily Foaming Wash with AHA & Enzymes 4 oz/ 118 mLas a very light daily exfoliator, but a nice glycolic toner much like The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating Toner 8 oz/ 240 mLis how I got started. Acids are easier on my skin when it's breaking out than the rougher bead-based ones I had favored as a teen.
