Purging on the face after using serums

2023-07-04 13:55:47
I have started using Kojic Acid serum for pigmentation on my face. It started giving me purging. Shall I stop using or continue it as some say this is normal. It's been little over a month now. I use it everyday at night. Recently started using as sandwich method too. Also, I use Salicylic serum & Retinol too once a week only.

You can stop using the product. Salicylic and retinol can be used on oily skin type. Using actives on skin depends upon factors like basic skin type etc. Use actives only with consultation.
