On the method of alternating the use of fruit acid and retinol
There is a way of skin care today. Alternating the use of fruit acid and retinol has a significant effect. Fruit acid, that is, glycolic acid, has the ability to gently exfoliate, which can make the skin's surface old and waste exfoliation fall off, making the skin smooth and delicate again, as if it were new. And it can promote skin metabolism, help moisture absorption, and make the skin hydrated and shiny.
Retinol, a derivative of vitamin A, can penetrate deep into the bottom layer of the skin, stimulate collagen production, reduce wrinkles, improve skin firmness, improve skin texture, and rejuvenate the skin.
However, both of them are irritating. If used at the same time, the skin may be intolerant, causing redness, swelling, tingling and other discomfort. Therefore, alternating use is a wonderful method. Fruit acid should be used during the day, because it can resist the damage of the external environment to the skin. After cleansing in the early morning, take an appropriate amount of fruit acid products and apply them evenly to the face, gently massage until absorbed, and then do a good job of moisturizing and sunscreen. Fruit acid can play its skin rejuvenating effect even more after being exposed to sunlight during the day.
Retinol is used at night. When the skin repairs itself at night, retinol can take advantage of this time to penetrate into the skin and exert its repair and anti-aging effects. After cleansing your face before going to bed, first use toner as a base, then take an appropriate amount of retinol products and gently apply it to your face, massage for a while. Initial use can be used several days apart, and after the skin gets used to it, gradually increase the frequency of use.
In this way, fruit acid and retinol are used alternately to rejuvenate the skin during the day, repair and resist aging at night, which complement each other, so that the skin always remains youthful, which is a good strategy for skin care.
