Frequently Asked Questions

Can Purity Balance be used if I have sensitive skin?

Purity Balance contains Salicylic Acid and Lactic Acid, which may be too active for very sensitive skin types. Cosmedix recommends Benefit Balance - a gentler, hydrating antioxidant toning mist - for sensitive or dry skin types. For skin that is oily with some sensitivity, start by using Purity Balance every other evening and increase frequency based on your skin's response.

How does Purity Balance differ from Benefit Balance?

Both are toners but serve different skin types and concerns. Purity Balance is an exfoliating prep toner with Salicylic Acid and Lactic Acid, formulated for oily, combination, and acne-prone skin needing pore-refining and oil control. Benefit Balance is a hydrating antioxidant mist with L-Lactic Acid, formulated for normal, dry, and sensitive skin needing gentle exfoliation and moisture.

Can I use Purity Balance morning and evening?

Yes. Cosmedix recommends using Purity Balance morning and evening after cleansing. In the morning, follow with an SPF moisturiser. In the evening, follow with your treatment serums and moisturiser. If your skin is new to acids, start with evening use only and introduce morning use gradually.
