Taurine and citric acid: work well together

Work well together

Use them together in the same routine, applying the exfoliating acid first followed by the amino acid product. Citric acid gently renews the skin surface while taurine helps keep the skin balanced and comfortable. If your skin feels sensitive, you can use a lower strength or apply them on alternate nights.
