- Be sure to test your skin tolerance before using this mask for longer than 10 minutes at a time. Some skin types are too sensitive to use the mask longer than 10-15 minutes or you may need to build up tolerance to AHA/BHA application.
- Start out using weekly, once you determine your skin's tolerance for AHA/BHA application you can increase use if desired.
- To increase effectiveness cleanse first with an exfoliating facial brush, loosening debris and dead skin cells will make the mask more effective.
