People often doubt whether glycolic acid and hyaluronic acid can be used together. Glycolic acid is a fruit acid and the like, which is active, can exfoliate, promote skin metabolism, and rejuvenate the skin. And hyaluronic acid is good for moisturizing, can keep water in the skin, making the skin moist and full.
However, when using both, be careful. If the skin has strong tolerance, use it in moderation, or you can get the double benefits of exfoliation and moisturizing. After exfoliation of glycolic acid, the skin's permeability increases, and hyaluronic acid can better penetrate and replenish water at this time.
But those with sensitive skin, use it rashly, for fear of discomfort. The stimulation of glycolic acid may temporarily weaken the skin barrier, and although hyaluronic acid moisturizes, it may also cause tingling, redness, etc.
Therefore, those who want to use glycolic acid and hyaluronic acid together should try it on the local skin first. See if it is uncomfortable, if there is no abnormality, then gradually expand the scope of use. And the frequency of use should be low, and it can only be adjusted after the skin adapts. In this way, you may be able to take the best of both and avoid its harm.
