Whether to use hyaluronic acid after using glycolic acid is the key to skin care. Glycolic acid, a type of fruit acid, has the ability to exfoliate, can make the skin's surface old and waste exfoliation, make the skin more tender and smooth, and can stimulate collagen production and improve skin quality. However, when it is effective, it will weaken the skin barrier function in the short term and make the skin more sensitive.
Hyaluronic acid, known as "moisturizing gold", has powerful moisturizing properties, can grab and lock in a lot of moisture, replenish moisture for the skin, enhance skin hydration, and make the skin full and elastic.
If hyaluronic acid is used immediately after using glycolic acid, in theory, the moisturizing effect of hyaluronic acid can be used to relieve skin dryness and discomfort caused by glycolic acid, which may be beneficial to the repair of the skin barrier. However, in actual operation, caution is required. Because individual skin tolerance varies greatly, some people have sensitive skin. After using glycolic acid, the skin reacts strongly. At this time, hyaluronic acid is added rashly, which may cause skin intolerance, causing redness, tingling and other adverse phenomena.
Therefore, users should first clarify their own skin conditions. If the skin has good tolerance, after using glycolic acid and waiting for the skin to adapt, apply an appropriate amount of hyaluronic acid, or you can get a complementary skin care effect; if the skin is already sensitive and fragile, the reaction after using glycolic acid is obvious, it is recommended to wait for the skin to recover calm, and then try to use hyaluronic acid, and before use, you can try it on the local skin to observe whether there are any adverse reactions, in order to ensure that the skin care is safe and effective, and achieve the purpose of skin care.
