    Other: I recently started slowly introducing BHA into my routine, so I’m using Geek & Gorgeous Porefectly Clear 2% BHA every 3 days.

      I’m very curious about this Geek & Gorgeous brand. They seem to be fragrance/dye-free and very economical! In particular, I see that their Happier Barrier product isn’t in a jar and am off to purchase it lol. How are you liking their products so far? I feel you on the slowly introducing actives into your routine. When I first started tret, I was using it twice a week and still managed to end up with tret burns! These days I’ve cut it back to once a week at most and sandwiching it in between my other products.

        I’ve been trying out a lot of Geek & Gorgeous products recently and for the most part I’m very happy with them! I would say they are similar to The Ordinary but a step better.

        I hope you will like Happier Barrier! I thought it was a good moisturizer but I wouldn’t mind if it was even thicker.
