Choosing the right chemical exfoliant for sensitive skin means finding a product that renews and brightens without triggering discomfort. Look for formulas with polyhydroxy acids (PHAs), low-strength beta hydroxy acids (BHAs), and soothing botanicals. These ingredients help gently smooth skin, support hydration, and minimize irritation—making them ideal for sensitive complexions.
Serums and face washes offer different benefits for sensitive skin. Serums, like the Papaya & Niacinamide Brighten & Glow Skin Clarifying Super Serum, are best for targeted brightening and texture refinement. Face washes, such as the Papaya & Vitamin E Insta Glow Exfoliating Face Wash, suit those seeking everyday cleansing and mild exfoliation. If your main concern is dryness or dullness, opt for a serum; for mild congestion or regular maintenance, a face wash is a practical choice.

1. What is the best type of chemical exfoliant for sensitive skin?
The best chemical exfoliants for sensitive skin are polyhydroxy acids (PHAs) and low-concentration beta hydroxy acids (BHAs) like 1% salicylic acid. These offer gentle exfoliation without causing irritation or redness.
2. Can a chemical exfoliant for sensitive skin be used every day?
Most chemical exfoliants for sensitive skin are designed for use 1-3 times per week. Daily use is generally not recommended unless the product instructions specifically state it's suitable for daily application.
3. What ingredients should be avoided in chemical exfoliants for sensitive skin?
Sensitive skin should avoid chemical exfoliants containing high concentrations of AHAs or BHAs, alcohol, sulfates, and synthetic fragrances, as these can increase irritation and dryness.
4. How do PHAs differ from AHAs in exfoliants for sensitive skin?
PHAs have larger molecules than AHAs, so they work on the skin's surface and cause less irritation. This makes PHAs especially suitable for those with sensitive or reactive skin.
5. Do chemical exfoliants help with acne on sensitive skin?
Gentle chemical exfoliants with low-strength BHAs or PHAs can help manage mild acne by unclogging pores and reducing inflammation, making them beneficial for sensitive, acne-prone skin.
6. How long does it take to see results from a chemical exfoliant for sensitive skin?
Visible improvements such as smoother texture and brighter skin usually appear within two to four weeks of consistent use, but sensitive skin may require a slower approach for best results.
7. Are there natural chemical exfoliants suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, natural exfoliants containing fruit enzymes like papaya or botanical extracts can provide gentle exfoliation and are often well-tolerated by sensitive skin types.
8. Should sunscreen be used after applying a chemical exfoliant for sensitive skin?
Yes, sunscreen is essential after using any chemical exfoliant, especially for sensitive skin, as exfoliation can make skin more vulnerable to sun damage.

Lotus Botanicals offers gentle exfoliating solutions like the Papaya & Vitamin E Insta Glow Exfoliating Face Wash and Papaya & Niacinamide Brighten & Glow Skin Clarifying Super Serum, both suitable for sensitive skin.
