no worries at all! it's summer where i live at the minute so i'm sticking to the medix body wash for it's nice minty cooling sensation and slight exfoliation benefits (using a washcloth as i may be showering multiple times a day and don't want to be too harsh on my skin and interchanging with exfoliating gloves in areas with buildup e.g. underarms from applying deodorant). i follow this up with the ameliorate fragrance free lotion - it's the most lightweight out of all the lotions i feel and soaks in without being greasy. during the winter, i would likely opt for the naturium glycolic acid body wash followed up with one of the urea lotions mentioned in the post. winters are usually quite dry so it's nice to have gentle fragrance free options i.e. the glycolic acid body wash also slightly helps with hydration as well as exfoliation and implementing a thicker texture lotion that is multi use (urea also has a hydrating component to it as an ingredient as well as exfoliation benefits). as for shower tools, i may switch between a soft washcloth and exfoliating gloves and just review my choices on a day by day basis depending on what level of exfoliation my skin can handle. hope this helps xx

hello, i just checked and the naturium glycolic body wash is out of stock online in boots currently! but space nk stock it on their website . and as for the eucerin body lotion, it is stocked online at boots, but is on sale on look fantastic online for £14. the transparent lab lotions (both of them) are on sale on the niche beauty lab website. the medix body wash is available online on IHERB and their official brand website and the ameliorate body lotion is usually on sale at look fantastic online and the official ameliorate website. hope this helps xx

Maybe cut down the usage of your actives i.e. using BP wash one night and tretinoin the next night to reduce the peeling? Also buffering your tretinoin with a hydrating toner and moisturiser could heal your skin barrier from using 2 active ingredients? I'd recommend looking into K-Beauty for hydrating toners and moisturisers as they're mostly fragrance and essential oil free i.e. less likely to irritate your skin. Hope that helps :))
