Salicylic acid ne muh jala diya! 😭 Redness, burning, kya galat kiya? Help please!

Yaar need some serious help 😭

I finally gathered courage to try salicylic acid serum for my acne. Sab log recommend karte the so I bought Minimalist 2% one. First day lagaaya, thoda tingling hua socha normal hai. Next morning my whole face was RED and burning like hell. Skin feels so tight and itchy, even moisturizer laga rahi hu toh jal raha hai. Pehle se zyada worse lag raha hai honestly.

Kya galat kiya maine? Maybe I used too much? Ya phir my skin is just too sensitive for acids? Mummy ne kaha "tumhari umar mein kya skincare, bas besan laga lo" but that doesn't work for cystic acne yaar 😤

Aaj filter lagake bhi selfie nahi le paayi, itna redness hai. Kal college hai. Please koi batao - should I stop using it completely? Or maybe start with lower percentage? Koi remedy jisse ye burning kam ho jaye? Also can I use salicylic acid with my regular niacinamide moisturizer ya nahi?

Help a sister out 🙏
