I have a simple and little bit silly question here. how to know the pH of skin care products? most stuff i'm using do not mark the pH on the package or the bottle. How could I find it? Or I should check the ingredients?
i'm 25-30yrs, should I use neutral pH or acid pH products? thanks for your comments~~~

I do not understand why the PH is so important to you. You could choose the product which is really suitable for you, but not the right PH.

Can't you just buy pH test strips and dunk it in your product?
I believe pH is important for certain ingredients to penetrate so that your skin can actually benefit from those ingredients.

I was under the impression that the pH was only important in cleansers - not in all your skin care products. Here is a thread that you may be interested in.

From what I understand, pH is important for actives like vitamin C and BHA. There might be more, I just can't think of any right now

Are you saying that the pH of C and BHA are important, or the pH of your skin is important before applying those 2 actives?
