Glycolic Acid and Deodorant Compatibility
On the Compatibility of Glycolic Acid and Deodorant
Glycolic Acid is quite famous in the field of skin care. It is famous for its skin rejuvenation ability, which can help the skin regenerate and make the skin radiant and shiny. Deodorant is a daily body protection product, which can remove the filth of body odor and keep the body fresh. However, whether the two can be applied together is really related to the health of the skin and cannot be ignored.

Glycolic acid has the property of exfoliating, which can make the outer layer of the skin old and exfoliated, making the skin more tender. However, because of this, the skin's protective ability is temporarily weak, and its resistance to external stimuli is slightly inferior. Deodorants have different ingredients, or contain aluminum salts, fragrances and antibacterial agents. Among them, aluminum salts are often necessary for astringent and antiperspirant, fragrances to mask odors, and antibacterial agents to prevent the growth of bacteria.

If glycolic acid and deodorant are used in combination, consider their mutual effects. Glycolic acid thins the stratum corneum of the skin, and the ingredients in the deodorant may more easily penetrate into the deep layers of the skin. Aluminum salts, such as aluminum salts, or due to changes in the skin barrier, absorb different amounts than usual, although there is no conclusive evidence that they are necessarily harmful, but the latent risk cannot be ignored. Fragrances may also cause allergic discomfort due to the increase in skin sensitivity. As for antibacterial agents, when they encounter glycolic acid, their antibacterial effect may change, or they may react with glycolic acid, forming unknown things that affect the skin.

Therefore, if you want to use both glycolic acid and deodorant, you should try it first on a small area of skin. If you apply a small amount of both to the wrist or behind the ear, wait for a few hours to see if the skin is red, itchy, and tingling. If there is no abnormality, you can use it cautiously in daily use. And it is appropriate to pay attention to the sequence at all times, or apply glycolic acid first, wait for the skin to absorb for a while, and then use deodorant; vice versa. But it is always necessary to have no discomfort to the skin.

Furthermore, individual skin characteristics are different, and the tolerance to the two is different. Dry skin is prone to dry itching. After using glycolic acid, you may need to pay more attention to moisturizing. The deodorant should also be mild and moisturizing. Although oily skin has a lot of oil secretion, excessive use of glycolic acid may also cause skin imbalance. Sensitive skin needs to be especially cautious. Before using the two, or when consulting a professional dermatologist, it is a complete policy.

To sum up, the compatibility of glycolic acid and deodorant needs to vary from individual skin to individual skin. Be careful to use it in order to ensure the safety of the skin and enjoy the benefits of both while avoiding its harm.
