Actually, black folks have higher rates of dying of skin cancer. Your skin may not burn, but the rays are still in contact with it.

Also in terms of exfoliation, your skin has a protective layer. When you exfoliate, you remove that layer making your skin easier to burn. Some folks don’t. I do.


To restore your layer after exfoliating or using a peel, I apply this:

Its key ingredient is Niacinamide, which is a form of Vitamin B3 that helps restore the top layer to your skin while also brightening hyper-pigmentation. I used to use the BHA/AHA 30% peel from The Ordinary, but I've opted to use a daily AHA formula with 10% potency, finding it more consistent.

I used to think I didn't need sunscreen until I went on a trip to Mexico. I was cooked all over, it was painful, and the peeling made me look like I had a disease. Never again.

Go see a professional. I've had a chemical peel done by a dermatologist and my skin didn't react to it too well.

Can you post links to the products when you get a chance?

Sure! Sorry for the delay!

Ole Henriksen Power Peel TJMaxx sells the orange version for 13-15.
The Ordinary BHA Peel
Sunscreen

I'm about to cop both The Ordinary products u suggested:salute:

Any recommendations for the face mask?

Face Mask on Amazon. These are essence-based. So after you use it, just put a moisturizer on to "seal".

With the ordinary peel u suggested it comes in drops, do I just drop it in my hand and massage it in?

I'm used to the peel pads, thought that was how all peels were

It is a three step treatment. Physical exfoliate. Buffer product. Actual peel. It comes with a small pad to remove the final peel. The kit would come with 3-5 peels. I would stretch them a bit so one peel can last 3 different times. So I got 15 peels from one kit. The kit gives more product than you actually need so I didn’t see the point of putting more than needed on.

Peel pads are nice too.

Uneven? Or dry spots

The ordinary has a chemical peel. 8 bucks. It is at ulta, Sephora, and more. I love it. Very simple to use.

Wash your face with a soft gentle cleanser.
Air dry. Make sure your face is 100% dry.
Apply product. It is going to sting. If it burns, I take a q-tip and remove that area.
Wipe off with Luke warm water.
Do a face mask with serum.
Apply a thick moisturizer before bed.

1x a week.

Use sunscreen daily.


What can I do for razor burn on my neck? I look like I have infinite 5 o'clock shadow because I didn't know how to shave when I first started doing it.
