On whether it is feasible to use glycolic acid for lips
or some people doubt: "Can glycolic acid be applied to lips?" This question is related to the maintenance of facial skin, which cannot be ignored.
The glycolic acid is often used in skin care. It has the ability to exfoliate and rejuvenate the skin. However, the skin of the lips is different from the rest of the face. The skin on the lips is thin and delicate, and the sebaceous glands are lacking, and its own protection is inferior to that of others.
If you rashly apply it with glycolic acid, there may be drawbacks. The acidity of glycolic acid may cause irritation to the skin of the lips, mild discomfort and slight pain, and severe cases may cause redness, swelling and peeling. The skin of the lips is delicate and weak, and its tolerance is limited, making it difficult to withstand the strong effect of glycolic acid.
However, it is not completely unusable. If the skin has good tolerance and is well prepared, you can give it a try. First, try it with a very dilute glycolic acid solution on the small skin around the lips, and wait a few hours to see if there are any adverse reactions. If there is no discomfort, Fang Xu should be used on the lips, and the dosage and frequency should be observed when using it, and you should not be greedy for speed.
Generally speaking, when using glycolic acid on the lips, you should be cautious. Check the skin's tolerance first, and use it in a moderate way to ensure the safety of the lip skin, so as not to suffer from it due to maintenance.
