BHAs/Salicylic Acid
The world of skincare acids is not limited to AHAs but in most cases AHAs and BHAs go hand in hand especially when it comes to enzyme therapy or chemical peeling. Beta Hydroxy Acids are your other skin-care friendly chemical exfoliants. Despite having a wide range to choose from, the most commonly used BHA, known by the masses is salicylic acid. Salicylic acid has been a staple in the beauty and skin care industry for its therapeutic effects on acne and breakouts.
Salicylic acid has been a best friend to several masses having acne or acne prone skin. How does it work? This exfoliant is commonly derived from willow bark extract. Its mechanism of action involves breaking of intercellular bonds between the dead cells sitting on the top of your skin leading to its removal, revealing a youthful glow. The biggest difference between AHA and BHA is its solubility i.e AHAs are water-soluble, making them perfect for dry skin whereas BHAs are commonly oil-soluble and are used in skincare products formulated for oily or acne prone skin.
BHAs have been the star of the show in many products. Your priority when it comes to choosing between an AHA or a BHA will completely depend on your skin type and the type of penetrability or the exfoliating power that you are looking for.
