My skin has gradually adjusted to living in dry, dry, dry Colorado and I've adjusted my routine to help it along the way. However, I need a good BHA in order to keep my skin from getting clogged from all the wonderful things that help keep its lipid barrier in place. Until recently I was using Paula's Choice 2% BHA cream (the 1% wasn't strong enough to stop stubborn blackheads and hairline clogs), but it has been out of stock being reformulated seemingly forever.
I'm about at the point where I can't scrape any more out of the bottle even with a spatula, but I don't know what to use since my stand-by is unavailable! I've had really good luck switching most of my daily skincare routine to all natural products from small e-tailers or making my home (I make a great oil cleanser!), but I can't find any BHA that looks suitable.
Suggestions?
