- AHA, BHA, and PHA! Or as we like to say, “Ah-ha! Ba-ha! And Pa-ha!” 😜 We want to thank Naturium for sponsoring a portion of this video to share with you guys our thoughts on what seems like an endless selection of products with chemical exfoliants! It can still get pretty confusing, right?! This is why we decided to update our previous video on chemical exfoliation 101. 🤓 We’ll talk all about what they can do to our skin, what exfoliants we can find in our products, and which best suits specific skin types. And of course, it isn’t Beauty Within without product recs. 😉

Hi lovelies! We noticed some of you asking about why Fel would mention that Salicylic acid was banned in the EU so we thought we’d address it here. In our research, we discovered that salicylic acid is also used as a preservative and is commonly used in rinse-off hair care products and in nearly all cosmetic products for this very reason (excluding mouthwash, toothpaste, eyeliner, and mascara).
We also learned that SA has a close relation to aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) which is what led to its ban around 2014 over concerns on salicylate poisoning and Reye’s syndrome in children and in young adults. Keep in mind that this is poisoning from oral intake of aspirin, not from topical usage. But it was interesting to hear that there were restrictions over this ingredient. (And as a brief tangent, that kind of explains those DIY remedies on using crushed aspirin pills to help your pimple, huh?) In 2018, the EU Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety updated its opinion on SA and basically said it’s generally safe to use, given that they’re formulated at specific concentrations depending on what SA is being used for in the product.
As for topical usage, SA is considered safe when “used for purposes other than preservative at a concentration up to 3%” and doesn’t have an impact on buying and selling skincare products containing salicylic acid in the EU.

ec.europa.eu/health/sites/health/files/scientific_committees/consumer_safety/docs/sccs_o_223.pdf
And on another fun fact on SA that didn’t make the cut: SA is technically not even considered a BHA! Apparently when looking at it in terms of chemical structure, SA doesn’t match the structure of true beta-hydroxy acids. Even the FDA states in their regulations for products containing salicylic acid that “from a chemist’s perspective, salicylic acid is not a true BHA.” But because cosmetic companies and brands often refer to SA as BHA, this is what stuck. We’ll spare you the technical terms that make SA different from true beta-hydroxy acids but we thought it was super cool to share!

Hope that clears some things up a little bit for you! As always, thank you so much for your amazing support! We love you to infinity and beyond! 💕
Thank you girls for this interesting information!🤗love from Malaysia ♥️
Wow ive never known that SA is not a BHA. But then what BHA types are there because when I search for BHA products they all appear to have SA
So that's why I couldn't find it anywhere in italy, not even online! So interesting
Can you talk about the labels.. “clean” products/cruelty free/vegan ingredients...
Consult a dermatologist
I'm tired of trying to find what I want to recheck in a video. So I'm going to note down the time stamps.
1:35 chemical exfoliators
3:58 AHA
13:10 BHA
19:12 PHA
Thank you so much
TYYYYY ‼️‼️
Omg same
thank you
THEY TALK A LOT DON'T THEY
I love how they give all the details so smoothly and every understand, and it's not just serious that makes you want to skip the whole video, there really fun and sweet
Can you both start a line of videos expanding to body care? Lotions, scrubs, oils, body wash, dark spots, scars, or any skin issues we all struggle with?
me watching this with large pores ,acne marks and blackheads 😅
ko mal, you need to go and check Dr. Jayashree Ramana channel. I got really amazing results. The channel is all about acne and scars.
Veronica Rodriguez what about blackheads?
@@jenniv8267 This lady doctor will answer better. I am not expert, sorry.
@。。i stan too many groups Ayyy kpop stan.... I love your profile pic!! Wonyoung is so pretty
I exfoliated too much and it led to damage in my moisture barrier, my skin was super dry but at the same time I started having a lot of pimples because of the damage itself (the skin is weaker and that can result in infections and inflammation) I also had this weird pink marks on my cheeks (PIE). I stopped for a whole month and now the acne is completely gone and the pink marks are fading quickly. Just remember to be very gentle with your skin because you can actually end up causing more damage than good.
Can I ask you what you were using on a daily basis? Like your old day/night routine? I’ve been switching between retinol and tlc fambroos glycolic every other night. in the morning i use a niacinimide serum. i have been breaking out tho and now i’m wondering if it’s too much and i should just cut it all out!! or stick with it bc results are coming... 🤔
Thank you.
This exact thing happened to me about a month and a half ago. I have now as of two weeks ago stopped breaking out (a problem that I NEVER had - even as a teenager) and the marks are fading but not very fast. Do you have any advice on how to expedite the fading?
This is what has been kept me from using chemical exfloliation
Oh my god this is so meee
I seriously only trust ro & fel to come in clutch with the in-depth / easy to digest explanations of this heavily overlooked topic that many people don't realize can drastically change your skin for the better or lead to extreme skin barrier damage THANK YOU TO BEAUTY WITHIN FOR ALL THE HELPFUL ADVICE THROUGHOUT THE YEARS 💜💜💜💜
Feelin like a pro skincare guru with these informative tips about Chemical exfoliants! Always a recipe for success, thanks gals ✨
In case any vegan is watching this and thinks, so why is The ordinary vegan if they use lactic acid?
Lactic acid has that name because can be extracted from the fermentation of lactose (the sugar in milk), BUT it is usually extracted from the fermentation of other sugars like cane sugar, beetroot or grapes for cosmetic use.
This came at the PERFECT time! I heard BHA’s can help with blackheads and I really wanna even my skin tone. ✨👌🏽 so happy to have this video!
Omg I'm cry because you girls are so educated on skin care, and I'm studying to become a dermatologist and I learned some stuff here
I appreciate how informative this is, as always. 😊
This is exactly the kind of content I needed today. Thanks, pretties! And those dresses!
I can’t imagine how smooth your hands are because of all these product recommendations 😂
AHA- Glycolic acid, lactic acid - act on the surface
BHA: help uneven skin tone, sebum and pore size.
Salicylic acid, betaine salycilate, lipohydroxy acid
PHA - gluconolactone and lactobionic acid
Nat - That is super helpful 😘💜
Thank u u spared me 25 precious minutes. Ima watch the avengers now :)
Thanks
Can I use Aha toner and then BHA?
@Nat, hi Nat. Can u tell PHA is for which type skin & for what problem it can be used
Ladies you are looking so fresh and glam. Especially Ro: love your hair. You are on fire girl 🔥😎
Capryloyl Salicylic acid is also called LHA; which is an exfoliant that is anti inflammatory and also restores dry, damaged skin barrier especially good for sensitive skin types and gives that natural glow & suppleness😁.
I'm new to chemical exfoliating. So if im 35 with dry skin this sounds like a good one too try out...Im just trying to figure out which one is best for my skin type...Thank you for bringing this up ❤❤❤
@@ambilove6727 i feel like you can never go wrong with the paulas chice 2% bha exfoliant. i have sensetive skin too and it's not irritating on my skin at all! 😊
@@ezgi8256 I just ordered mine and I'm really hopeful that it will work.
Will forever be in awe of how much research and effort is put into your videos. You guys are my favorite and definitely my go-to skincare youtube channel, these videos help a lot! Love and appreciate all you do ♥️
Hi i just wanna say that I've been watching your vids since last year when i knew nothing about proper skincare. I learned a lot from your vids and I was able to apply them to me when choosing products and how to use them. Now I can say that I'm on my way to having a clear skin 💓
Perfect timing... I'm breaking out right now You guys are Lifesavers !!! ❤️
Two lovely dressed ladies in a beautiful setting. Elegent vibes always. Loved the video!
I want to try Mandelic acid! ✨ I would love to see a dedicated video to the best wash off masks for both skin types!
This video is incredible!! It answered every question I have ever had on these topics, I love the scientific explanations. Thank you thank you 🙏🏼
the video that we all need!! guys and girls should take notes 🤩
I have been waiting for this video for so long thank you guys a billion 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I really shouldn’t be binge playing BW episodes on my Ipad while working from home...but here I am...
So much good info! Keep it up ladies! I feel like I’m missing out not having a set of girlfriends like you to chill with :-)
Haha I’m not the only one who plays the videos while I work then 😂
I’d love to know your favorite cotton pads and towels for after you wash your face!
Glycolic acid is amazing! I use a 5% wash mixed with a gentle wash on a daily basis. Out of my entire toolkit, it's the one item that if missing, everything else falls apart or stops working. I've had acne for decades but my dermatologist recommended toolkit consists of: antibacterial cream (benzoyl peroxide at the moment), some retinol (differin at the moment), birth control, and spironolactone (at varying levels over the years). My skin care targets hyperpigmentation so I use licorice root serum, fermented rice essence, and SPF. You don't need to spend a ton on these basic ingredients, maybe shell out only for serums. Also, save your money for microneedling sessions at your dermatologist, honestly that's the only treatment worth your money for acne scars.
The video that I have needed for so very long... is finally here. Thank you :')
yey new upload. so informative this will help me choose my next chemical exfoliador product.
Hello ladies, thank you so much for the very informative video and detailed explanation! Waiting for more to come! Love and Support from Myanmar🇲🇲🇲🇲!
I know you’re skincare focused but I need links to these dresses!!!!
Yes!
ASAP
They have mentioned that they get their clothes from rent the runway
They mentioned once most of their outfits are from revolve!
@@Sal9862 their filimg outfits are all rent the runway. their regular clothes might be revolve
I was never really sure what to choose in terms of chemical exfoliants as I don’t have any major problems to fix apart from large pores (which ain’t going anywhere!😆). Your explanations of the differences between the chemical types is so helpful. Anyway, I was happy to see the some by mi AHA BHA PHA 30 day miracle toner in your picks as I have recently started using this and I really like it.👍
Okay seriously this video came in the right time 😳😳😳 thank youu💕
So glad to see the girls wearing coordinated outfits again 😍
I love the Naturium products that I have and can't wait to try more. Naturium and Good Molecules have been my go to recently and my skin has been flourishing.
Just in time fel & Ro. I need thisss video soo bad 🤩
My fav channel ✨ you guys are lifesavers
This was helpful! I have been experimenting with a natural exfoliant by Savor Beauty- their Cherry Enzyme peel and I am loving it a few times a week!
I just looove these two. And the way the break it down is just beautiful. Thank you beauty within😙❤
Thank you for making this video! I’m just beginning a skin care routine.
Hey Beauty Within skincare gurus :) Can you please also highlight which of these chemical exfoliants are safe to use during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Thanks!
I love this thank you gals. I just started doing chemical exfoliants and i love it never goin back
You always explain so well. And y'all are cute as can be! 💕
Looking lovely ladies! Paula's Choice BHA is my favourite and my bottle has lasted so long!
hey! I recently came back to the channel after a few years, and I just wanted to ask where Mia is? Love this video!
I love this channel so much
Love this!! 🤩 very interesting! Thanks for the information 👍🏻
I love what they're wearing! 😍
Thank you so much for this video. Very educational. 💕
You ladies are so beautiful! Keep up the great content!!
Omg rowena looks so beautiful in that beautiful dress she has on like omg so stunning. Wish you guys all luck so beautiful you too
Exactly what I was looking for!! Thank you!!!
Row looks stunning !
Hi ladies. Loved the video. Is Cosrx a good brand? It's hard to find some of the other ones mentioned.
I just love these two ❤️❤️
I love the Naturium BHA! It has improved my skin SO much.
This video was very helpful! And I love that you guys explain the science and differences behind AHAs and BHAs.
I have a question: Is it better to put chemical exfoliants on when your skin is damp or dry? For example, right after cleansing or after applying a toner. Does it reduce the potency if your skin is wet? I have
but it on when the skin is dry
Dry!!
Thank you for another awesome video, just bought mandelic topical 12% by naturium. I hope it will works good with my skin
For PHA, try cnp laboratory invisible peeling booster. Gentle yet effective
learning about skin care has never been so easy and engaging. Just discovered your channel and i love it here! definitely sharing with everybody who needs it
Love their dresses!!!
Can y'all do a video on night time moisturizers?? The day time moisturizer is oil absorbing which is not necessarily something I need at night, also I put a facial oil on at night
Have you tried Dr. Jart Dermaclear Micro Milk Peel? This is the third week I’m using it and I love it.
What would you recommend for someone who is allergic to niacinamide + salicylic acid but also has oily, black-head prone skin and acne ?
What is better for certain skin types? An exfoliating toner or an exfoliating serum?
Could you guys touch on Dr Dennes Groth Alpha Beta exfoliating pads? Love you guys!
Hi girls , do u have any products for lightening the full body? I have hyper Melasma all over my body huge patches so anything in a lotion format PLEASEEE
I just had a realization moment😱 I have a pore reducing toner and products that reduce pore size and I’m here thinking it’ll take my black heads away. Buts that’s not the case!!! Thanks!
I tried the Ordinary 5% lactic acid serum and immediately fell in love! I don't really feel like I need anything stronger.
How often do you apply it
Do you use it everyday morning and night or just night?
Yorcy Barrios I don’t use it LOL that’s kind of why I was asking you 😅 i’d like to give it a try. Are you supposed to use it twice a day? Or just once? And do you apply it daily? Or just a few days out of the week? Thank you again for your help 🙏🏼
@@velvetkitty8883 @Yorcy Barrios I apply it 3-4 times a week, at night. I use six drops for my face and four on my neck. It's really worked well for the dark marks that linger after acne.
Kendall Stark thank you! I appreciate it ♥️
Nice one✔️✔️ thanks for sharing. I'm getting into BHAs, AHAs and glycolic acids. ❤️❤️❤️
LOL girls! the way you say PA-HA is exactly how you say the word "armpit" in Polish 🤣🤣
I love Rowena's bangs😍😍
Can you do an updated video on retinol and product recommendation please??
Love your dress Felicia😍
I would love an in-depth video on serums!! Especially hyaluronic acid, niacinamide, peptides, or retinol. I would love to know if its good (or bad) to combine serums.
they have many videos on serums
Just here to comment about the dresses! Soo pretty!! 😍😍 Mind dropping the brand or where to buy it? 🙂
Hi!! love your videos as always 😍 but if im not mistaken i think i saw cosrx aha bha clarifying toner (?) and kinda sad tho that u didnt mentioned it 🥺 it’s one of my first chemical exfoliant and my ultimate fav 😍
every time i try to change the chemical exfoliant into sunday riley / innisfree pore mask, my skin always break out >
Rowena you have to tell me where you got that dress please!!! Im in love with your dress! ❤❤
rent the runway
Hello! I would like to ask, how often should these chemical exfoliants be used in a day or in a week? can these products be used in the same day but not everyday? i'm new to these and everything is overwhelming haha.
I loveeee the patterned dresses ❤️ you guys forgot about LHA.
Love Rowena and Felicia💗💗
Hello what is the best cream and serum for the hyperpigmentation and dark spots
Hi could you do a video on what makeup you wear?? U always look amazing and I know a lot of it s having good skin but I think it would be such a cool video!!! Thanks!!!
watch their off duty routines on this channel
Hey beauties,
I am new to skin care routine and would like to more how I can use the products so that I can enhance my skin. My skin is dry skin (sometimes combination) with large pores, acnes (during periods) & sensitive. For my night routine, I use rose water toner followed by Klairs Vita C serum & Clinique 72-hours moisture surge moisturizer and finally using face shop collagen volume lifting eye cream (for my dark circles)
I would love if you advise me how I can carry my skin care routines (day & night)
They didn’t talk about the COSRX clarifying toner right?☹️ I want to know if it is recommended for normal to dry (a bit) sensitive skin😩
Can you suggest products for rosacea with combination skin?
Can you please recommend what product to get from cleanser to moisturizer and sunscreen (idk what combination of product is it for me) I have dry and sensitive skin but oily and pores on the T zone. Please help!! btw I’m the new subscriber I enjoy and appreciate the videos!!!
I don’t know why I literally lol’d when she sang “sugar beeeeeets”
You didn’t talk about the Bliss toner (only the pads) and that’s why I clicked on here!
Paula's choice launched 25% AHA and 2% BHA peel off exfoliant, what do you think? Since you said let leave 20% AHA to the professional?
I used Naturiam Niacinamide and Zink Serum and its alright, it kind of stings and is very sticky. Wouldnt buy again nor would I use any of there other product. I love niacinamide and have had much better feeling and confidence in my skin while using other products for the same price.
U both were looking so beautiful!!!!🥰
Thank you for the explanation and recommendation of aha bha and pha. The pha is a new one ha. I didn't know that salicylic acid is banned in eu. Hmm. Always watching you guys and wishtrend, i learned a lot about skincare
Hey loves🥰 I have a crazy doubt is there any way to use salicylic acid without undergoing purging....bcus I don't want to purge all over my face for about 2 months...
Is it good for daily use the AHA/BHA Toner that has citric acid and salicylic acid. It is from Face Republic. Idk bc as far as I know, it is recommended to use an exfoliant every other day (but not all products)
Fel, the Dr Wu should be used as your first step before toner/esssences.
Please test out and let us know your thoughts on the Freck cactus water toner! It’s a Lactic acid toner like the Ren but without all the irritating citrus oils. I’m so on the fence and want to know if it’s worth it!
wow the ingredients are super good. it has hydrating ingredients like glycerin and butleyene glycol. it also has cactus water which is super hydrating and rice which helps to brighten. it also has kelp which helps to retain moisture. GET IT NOW. the ingredients look soooooo good
Is 4% glycolic acid effective? How long would it take for the peeling to happen?
I've normal skin type with only a oily nose😅going great with my nose
