BHA + Moisturiser
1. This BHA is an acid and the use of a moisturiser is necessary especially for combination skin or dry skin.
2. Using it with only gels like aloe vera gel can be drying to your skin based on your skin type. so follow up with a proper cream instead of gels only.
3. If you prefer to use only Gel-based moisturiser or Aloe gel you can add 1-2 drops of Squalane to the gels and use as a moistruiser.
4. This is important if your skin is combination or dehydrated.

I use twice weekly ( 2 months now).
I find neither helpful nor any adverse effects.
Will wait and see. I understand skin takes time.
After using for almost two months my acne reduced to an extend.
Started using this from first week October, got many breakouts, which I attributed to purging; however till the time I'm writing this review, my skin is still filled with bumps, I'm going to stop using it. I don't think purging goes on for more than a month. Maybe my skin couldn't tolerate this.
Had high Hope's for this to de-congest my skin, but I'm getting the opposite.
Kindly do a patch test before you use it on your entire problem areas.
It is not harsh. My face feels less bumpy after using this. Don't forget your sunscreen while using this.
After using a month still having acne. Waste of money. Not able to see any difference.

Hie so i have a combination skin with small bumps, whiteheads and blackheads on my face should i use an aha or a bha serum?
BHA is an excellent choice for your issue. BHA can also be drying on combination skin , so we request you to use BHA with a hydrating moisturiser ( White lotus moisturiser )

BHA exfoliates skin and reduces Acne due to its anti bacterail properties.
But for your mom, Helichrysum Serum may be a better option along AHA Exfolaiting serum. -
