      Yes, it can be too strong. This is Paula's Choice 2% salicylic acid product (BHA), which is left on the skin and has an acidic pH. With rosacea, the skin's protective barrier is often more sensitive and the blood vessels react easily. Exfoliating acid can therefore cause stinging, redness, and warmth, and in the worst case, the acne can worsen. For some with rosacea, a mild BHA is suitable, but as a starting point, I would not recommend such a strong product.

      Hi Silja! 😊 This 2% BHA exfoliant can be suitable for dry skin if the skin has impurities or clogged pores, for example. However, it does not moisturize the skin, so use a moisturizing cream afterward. Start by using the product 2-3 times a week and gradually increase usage according to your skin's tolerance. If the skin starts to redden, irritate, or dry out, reduce usage. Always use sunscreen during the day with acid exfoliation 🤍
