About a year ago, I used a heavy exfoliant that severely damaged my skin barrier. Ever since then, i’ve had bad breakouts and scarring-like fine lines where there weren’t any before. A week ago I switched to a low ph pore cleanser, a peptide toner, and a ceramide moisturizer. All of which my skin has been reacting positively to with no breakouts and decreasing levels of sebum.

My question is as the title states. Since i’ve started this new routine, my skin has been itching a ton on different parts of my face, primarily where the scarred lines and majorly affected skin is. The itchiness moves around to different spots on my face, with differing levels of intensity for short periods of time, then slowly subsides. There’s no other reaction I can see happening on my skin other than the itchiness.

Just wondering if this is normal and if others have experienced something similar
