Your Guide to AHAs & BHAs

August 28, 2025 by Natalie

The skincare acids that refine and renew for a healthier complexion.

AHA, BHA—you’ve likely seen these acronyms everywhere, from skincare blogs to product labels. While the word “acid” might sound intimidating, these ingredients are actually gentle, powerful exfoliants that can transform your skin. But before you dive in, it’s important to understand the key differences between alpha-hydroxy acids and beta-hydroxy acids to find the right one for your specific skin concerns.

With so many exfoliants available, how do you know which one is best for your skin?

In this post, we’ll explain the differences between AHAs and BHAs, their unique benefits, and help you find the perfect exfoliant for your skin type!

What are AHAs?

Alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) are water-soluble acids, including glycolic, lactic, and mandelic acids. They are particularly suitable for dry or sun-damaged skin. AHAs promote moisture retention and improve the overall radiance of the skin.

If you want a fresh, luminous complexion, incorporating AHAs into your skincare routine could be the ideal solution!

What are BHAs?

Beta hydroxy acids (BHAs) are oil-soluble acids, the most common of which are salicylic acid and lipohydroxy acid (LHA). If you tend to suffer from acne, blackheads, or enlarged pores, incorporating BHAs into your skincare routine can promote clearer, healthier skin.

Why use both?

Incorporating both AHAs and BHAs into your skincare routine can help you achieve perfectly balanced skin.

AHAs exfoliate the surface of the skin, improving its texture and radiance, while BHAs penetrate deeper to unclog pores and fight acne.

This combined approach addresses multiple skin concerns: AHAs promote hydration and radiance, while BHAs regulate sebum production and prevent breakouts.

You can tailor your skincare routine to your specific needs.

Whether you choose to focus on one type or incorporate both, these exfoliants can significantly improve the texture, clarity, and overall health of your skin.

Embrace the power of these acids and watch your complexion transform into a true work of art—glowing and radiant!

Retinol FAQ

August 27, 2025 by Natalie

The most frequently asked questions about retinol, answered.

Retinol has earned its place as one of the most researched and effective ingredients in modern skincare. From reducing fine lines and wrinkles to improving texture, tone and breakouts, it offers a wide range of benefits. Yet, because it’s also known for potential side effects like dryness or irritation, many people have questions about how to use it correctly.

In this FAQ, we break down everything you need to know about retinol so you can incorporate it into your routine with confidence.

1. What is retinol?

Retinol is a derivative of vitamin A used in cosmetics for its anti-aging and anti-acne effects and to improve skin texture. It stimulates cell renewal and collagen and elastin production.

2. At what age can you start using retinol?

In general, you can start using it in your twenties to prevent the signs of aging, or earlier in cases of persistent acne. It is especially recommended for people aged 25-30 and above.

3. When should you apply it?

Always in the evening, as retinol can make the skin more sensitive to sunlight. In the morning, it is essential to apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher).

4. Should you moisturize after using retinol?

Yes! Moisturizing is crucial to limit side effects such as dryness or irritation. Apply a moisturizer after retinol.

5. What are the side effects?

– Redness

– Dryness

– Flaking

– Increased sensitivity

These effects are normal at first and diminish over time. If irritation is too severe, reduce the frequency of use.

6. Can it be used with other active ingredients?

Avoid combining retinol with:

– AHA/BHA (exfoliating acids)

– Vitamin C (in the same routine)

– Strongly scented or irritating products

You can combine it with:

– Niacinamide (soothes and moisturizes)

– Ceramides

– Hyaluronic acid

7. How long before I see results?

The first results (smoother skin, radiance) appear after 4 to 8 weeks. The deeper anti-aging effects take 3 to 6 months.

8. Should I stop using it in the summer or if I go on vacation?

No, but you should increase your sun protection. If you have very sensitive skin or plan to be exposed to strong sunlight, you can reduce the frequency or take a break.

I Have Dark Spots: How To Best Treat Them?

August 27, 2025August 26, 2025 by Natalie

Ingredients to look for and treatments that can help fade hyperpigmentation.

Dark spots, sun damage, and post-acne marks – hyperpigmentation wears many faces, but the frustration is always the same. The good news? Today’s most effective treatments, from brightening serums to powerhouse actives, can help restore a luminous, even-toned complexion.

Here are the main ways to treat pigmentation and dark spots:

1. Topical Creams & Serums

The most effective active ingredients include:

Niacinamide: Reduces dark spots and soothes the skin.

Vitamin C: A powerful antioxidant that brightens the complexion.

Azelaic Acid: Ideal for sensitive or acne-prone skin.

Retinol: Stimulates cell renewal and fades dark spots.

Exfoliating Acids (AHA/BHA): Remove pigmented cells from the surface.

2. Dermatological Treatments

For more severe or resistant cases:

Chemical Peels: based on glycolic or trichloroacetic acid.

Laser: targets deep pigmentation.

Cryotherapy: destroys pigmented cells using cold temperatures.

Microneedling + Brightening Serums: stimulates skin regeneration.

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP): Used for darker skin tones.

3. Daily Sun Protection

This is essential to prevent new spots from appearing and old ones from getting worse. Use SPF 30 or higher, even on cloudy days (365 days a year!).

4. Prevention & Care

Avoid touching or scratching spots (risk of post-inflammatory spots).

Incorporate lightening treatments into your routine, even after having the spots treated.

Moisturize your skin well to strengthen its natural barrier.

Following these tips should help treat or reduce their appearance. We recommend consulting a professional if the spots persist.

FAQ: A.G.E. Interrupter Ultra Serum

August 4, 2025 by Natalie

Your common questions on SkinCeutical's new anti-aging serum, answered.

When it comes to visibly reversing the signs of time, few products blend innovation and elegance quite like SkinCeuticals’ A.G.E. Interrupter Ultra Serum. Crafted to address the loss of elasticity, firmness, and radiance, this concentrated formula is the answer to one of skin’s most complex concerns: glycation. In this FAQ, we explore the science behind the serum, how to incorporate it into your ritual, and why it’s becoming a staple in high-performance skincare routines.

What does A.G.E. Interrupter Ultra Serum do?

A.G.E. Interrupter Ultra Serum visibly lifts and tightens 4 key facial and neck areas. It is clinically proven to reduce fine lines, wrinkles and noticeable signs of aging including those linked to Advanced Glycation End-Products (A.G.E.), which occurs when sugar molecules bind to collagen resulting in loss of elasticity.

How long before A.G.E. Interrupter Ultra Serum shows visible results?

A.G.E. Interrupted Ultra serum instantly hydrates skin, and has been tested to deliver clinical anti-aging results after consistent use for at least 4 weeks.

Can A.G.E. Interrupter Ultra Serum be used every day?

Yes, it is recommended that A.G.E. Interrupter Ultra Serum be used twice daily, morning and night.

How do skin-tightening serums work?

Skin-tightening serums, such as A.G.E. Interrupter Ultra Serum, help reverse the visible signs of aging associated with glycation, a process where sugar molecules bind to collagen fibres in the skin, weakening them and making the skin more susceptible to fine lines and wrinkles. Double-patented A.G.E. Serum technology supports collagen synthesis to maintain the skin’s firmness and elasticity for a lifted look on key areas.

Can I use A.G.E. Interrupter Ultra Serum with retinol?

Yes, you can use a lifting serum like A.G.E. Interrupter Ultra Serum with formulas containing retinol. It is recommended that A.G.E. Interrupter Ultra Serum be applied at night after a retinol formula.

Can I use A.G.E. Interrupter Ultra Serum with hyaluronic acid?

Yes, you can use A.G.E. Interrupter Ultra Serum with formulas containing hyaluronic acid. It works synergistically with hyaluronic acid in lifting and volumizing.

Can I use A.G.E. Interrupter Ultra Serum with vitamin C?

Yes, you can use a face-firming serum like A.G.E. Interrupter Ultra Serum with formulas containing vitamin C, including CE Ferulic. If using A.G.E. Interrupter Ultra Serum in the morning, it is recommended that it is applied after a SkinCeuticals vitamin C serum and before sunscreen.

Top Face Mists & Essences for Summer

July 22, 2025 by Natalie

Cool. Calm. Hydrated.

In hot and humid months, our skin’s hydration levels can decrease due to heat, sun exposure, and increased transepidermal water loss. Adding a face mist or essence to your routine will help restore moisture, calm sensitivity, and improve your skin’s absorption of subsequent skincare products.

These lightweight formulas deliver active ingredients without feeling heavy, making them perfect for summer layering and on-the-go refreshment.

ETIKET TIP: Chill your essence or toner in the refrigerator for an extra burst of freshness!

Benefits of Using a Toner or Essence

Toner vs Essence: What’s the Difference?

Both toners and essences are formulated to target specific skin concerns.

A toner gently primes the skin for targeted treatments and helps balance the pH of the skin.

An essence delivers concentrated active ingredients to the skin’s surface, optimizing hydration and the absorption of active ingredients, and should be used after toning.

**PAI SKINCARE**

A universal, natural-looking tan that won’t dry out or upset sensitive skin, and skips the sun damage. It’s the impossible made possible: a sunless tan with skincare benefits, in an organic formula that’s customizable by you.

“This hybrid product follows in the footsteps of our bestselling low drops to enter a new category, reimagining self tan for sensitive skin and nervous tanners alike.

For best results, we recommend exfoliating first, then applying evenly to cleansed, dry skin. Massage into skin until fully absorbed. Wash hands immediately after use.

The colour will start to deepen after around 2 hours, but allow up to 48 hours for your tan to fully develop. We find it looks best after 24 hours – and if you want more glow, you can always top up.
