Andrea and Peter address two customer questions about skincare. The first question is about how to incorporate the 2% AHA BHA Pore Minimizing Exfoliant into an existing skincare routine. The second question is about the difference between serums and creams and when to use each. Andrea and Peter provide detailed explanations and recommendations for both questions.

The 2% AHA BHA pore-minimizing exfoliant can be incorporated into an existing skincare routine by using it after the double cleanser and before the hydrating toner step.

It is recommended to start using the exfoliant once or twice a week in a nighttime routine and gradually increase frequency if desired.

Serums and creams have different properties and purposes. Serums are designed to address specific skin concerns and penetrate deeper into the skin, while creams provide hydration and protection for the outer layers of the skin.

Using both serum and cream can provide complementary benefits.

The choice between serum and cream depends on personal preference and skin type. If budget is a concern, it is recommended to prioritize using a cream as it serves a broader array of purposes. It is also possible to alternate between different creams based on seasonal needs.

It is important to start slow when incorporating new skincare products and to listen to your skin's needs. Adjustments can be made based on individual preferences and skin reactions.

Saranghae will be launching a new Furman Lift with triple mushroom complex in the coming months.
