Description
Acid exfoliants can help refine the look of uneven texture, dullness and congestion. In this category you’ll find AHA / BHA / PHA options across professional products, from daily cleansers and toners to targeted leave-on formulas.
The range includes products filtered by AHA acids, BHA (salicylic) and PHA acids, plus supporting ingredients often paired with exfoliation such as niacinamide, centella (cica) and hyaluronic acid. If you already use other actives, it’s easy to build a routine alongside Niacinamide or Hyaluronic acid.

How to choose
- Pick your acid type: AHA acids are often chosen for surface smoothness; BHA (salicylic) is commonly used when pores feel congested; PHA acids are a gentler-feeling option for many routines.
- Decide on format: choose a cleanser/toner for regular upkeep, or a leave-on product when you want more focused exfoliation.
- Balance with hydration: pairing acids with Hyaluronic acid can help keep skin feeling comfortable.
- Keep other actives in mind: if you already use Retinol, consider alternating rather than layering, especially at the start.
Questions & answers
What’s the difference between AHA, BHA and PHA?
They’re different types of exfoliating acids used in skincare. AHA acids are typically chosen for improving the look of surface texture and radiance. BHA (salicylic) is often preferred when you’re focused on the look of pores and congestion. PHA acids are a milder-feeling option many people choose when they want exfoliation with extra comfort.
Can I use AHA/BHA/PHA with niacinamide or hyaluronic acid?
Many routines pair exfoliating acids with supportive ingredients. In this category you’ll find products that include niacinamide and hyaluronic acid, and they’re also available as separate categories. If you’re building a routine, keep it simple at first and add one active step at a time so you can see how your skin responds.
Are there options for different budgets?
Yes. This category covers a wide price range and includes products across multiple professional brands. You can narrow down by acid type (AHA, BHA or PHA) and then choose the format that suits you—such as a cleanser, toner or leave-on product.
Which brands are available in this category?
You’ll find AHA / BHA / PHA products from SKIN1004, GIGI Laboratories, ISISPHARMA, YON-KA, Bye Bye Blemish, Medicube, Mizon and Lierac. If you already know the brand you like, start there and then filter by the acid type you want.
