Question

Can Activated Resorcinol™ be used with other skin exfoliants besides AHA, and which skin brightening ingredients are compatible?

Answer

Activated Resorcinol™ (4-Butyl Resorcinol) should not be used together with AHA because the acidity of AHA may affect the quality and stability of Activated Resorcinol™.

However, Activated Resorcinol™ can be used together with other skin brightening ingredients without issues, such as Vitamin B3 (Niacinamide) and N-Acetyl Glucosamine.
