I have VERY sensitive skin when it comes to exfoliating acids. I mean it when I say VERY sensitive. the beauty of joseon green plum toner which contains 2.5% glycolic acid and 0.5% salicylic acid always destroyed my skin whenever I tried it, but this PHA peel did not do that at all! I'm left with very supple skin that doesn't feel sensitised.
