On whether it is feasible to use salicylic acid after fruit acid
There are many types of modern skin care methods. Both fruit acid and salicylic acid are commonly used in skin care. However, people are often confused: after using fruit acid, can you continue to use salicylic acid?
Fruit acid is mostly extracted from fruits and other things, which can exfoliate, rejuvenate the skin, and smooth the pores. It is often used by people with rough and dull skin. Salicylic acid is famous for its excellent oil control, anti-acne, and anti-inflammatory properties. It is especially suitable for people with oily skin and acne skin.
From the perspective of the characteristics of the two, fruit acid mostly acts on the surface of the skin to exfoliate and promote metabolism. Salicylic acid can not only exfoliate, but also penetrate deep into pores and clean up oil. If used successively, in theory, it can synergistically exert the effect, make the skin renewed, and also improve oil secretion and prevent acne.
There are also reasons to be careful when using it. Both fruit acid and salicylic acid are irritating to a certain extent. Use them successively, or superimpose the irritation on the skin. Those with sensitive skin are prone to redness, swelling, tingling, and peeling. Therefore, use fruit acid first and then salicylic acid to check your own skin tolerance. You can try it on a small area first to observe the skin's reaction. If there is no discomfort to the skin, then gradually expand the scope of use. And the frequency of use should not be high, it should be less in the early stage, and it can be increased as appropriate when the skin adapts.
In general, the use of fruit acid followed by salicylic acid may yield better skin care effects for some skin tolerants; however, for sensitive skin, it should be done with caution and should not be mixed rashly to avoid skin damage. Users should weigh the advantages and disadvantages according to the condition of their own skin to achieve the purpose of skin care.
