La Roche Posay Burned My Skin!!!

this picture is so bad but there’s no good angle with how swollen my face is 😭

so i got the #larocheposay acne treatment kit and used it last night before bed. now i didn’t mix any products aside from the 3 that are provided in the kit. i did use it in the morning just to see how the formula was on my skin and i liked it! but later in throughout the day my skin became itchy with small red spots popping up. i figured it was just hives (i breakout in hives quite often) so i ignored it and washed my face again at night.

But this morning i woke up to my skin feeling tight and leathery!!! i quickly hopped on my phone to take a picture to see why i feel like this and saw i have what looks like sun poisoning all over my face!

can somebody please tell me if they have had this experience with the kit before or maybe if it was user error bc i really wanted to love it 😫

... Read moreLa Roche Posay is known for its dermatologist-recommended skincare products, particularly for sensitive skin. However, reactions like sunburn, redness, or rash can occur, often attributed to ingredients like salicylic acid or glycolic acid found in their formulations. It's essential to patch test new products, especially if you have a history of skin sensitivity. Always consult with a dermatologist before starting a new skincare routine to avoid adverse effects. Understand the potentially harmful effects of chemical burns from topical treatments and learn how to mitigate risks. Proper application, adhering to directions, and knowing your own skin can prevent unwanted reactions. If you experience irritation, discontinue use immediately and seek professional advice. You’re not alone; many others sharing similar concerns can be found in community forums dedicated to skincare reviews and recommendations.
