Which chemical exfoliant is better AHA, BHA, PHA?

All chemical exfoliants are good, you just have to choose the right one for your skin concern. Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) works on the surface of the skin. They are good for dry, dehydrated skin. It helps with wrinkles, dehydration of the skin, hyperpigmentation, enlarged pores, dryness, dullness. So if you struggle with any of these concerns you should look for these acids on the ingredient list: glycolic acid, lactic acid, malic acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, and mandelic acid. AHA is a strong exfoliant so if your skin is sensitive it's better to use Polyhydroxy acids (PHA). They are really similar to AHA exfoliants, but are a bit more gentle. If you have dry, sensitive skin or eczema, or rosacea skin you should try PHA. Beta hydroxy acids (BHA) work in our hair follicles and pores- so they go in the deeper layer of our skin. If your skin is oily, acne-prone you should try BHA. It helps with clogged pores, inflammation, enlarged pores, hyperpigmentation, and too much sebum production. BHA is also a good spot treatment. If you want to try this exfoliant you should look for these ingredients: salicylic acid, willowbark (Salix alba), wintergreen leaves, sweet birch bark, betaine salicylate, lipohydroxy acid. Chemical exfoliants are made of natural ingredients like fruits, vegetables, and flowers so they are good for people who enjoy natural skincare.
