Advice on My Back Acne/Hyperpigmentation
Hi everyone,
I’ve been struggling with back acne and hyperpigmentation for a while. I’m really trying to stay consistent with my skincare routine and would love some advice to make sure I’m not overdoing anything.
Current Skincare Routine for Back Acne:
- Cleanser: AHA BHA PHA 30 Days Miracle Acne Clear Body Cleanser by Some By Mi (1x daily night)
- Vitamin C+ Garnier 4% niacinamide+salicylic acid+melasyl
- Toner: Eqqualberry swimming pool
- Moisturiser: Purito pat calming gel cream
- Exfoliation (1x/week): Pink sugar scrub from Rituals
In the past I’ve used Panoxyl Acne Foaming Wash 10%, kojic soap, Eucerin Anti-pigment, Vaseline Gluta-Hya but didn’t see any big differences at all. (Also tried the brightener vitamin c body wash from naturium but it was too much and triggered my eczema)
My Concerns: I still have hyperpigmentation but less annoying pimples. Curious about how to adjust products to help speed up healing and fade marks, I’ve heard people mention azelaic acid or retinol helps but idk.
