Glycolic Acid and Lactic Acid Compatibility
Can glycolic acid and lactic acid be used together?
Glycolic acid and lactic acid are both common fruit acids and are widely used in the field of skin care. However, whether the two can be used together is a matter of concern to many beauty lovers.

Glycolic acid, with very small molecules, has strong permeability. It can quickly exfoliate, smooth pores, make skin glow, and is effective in improving dull complexion and fading fine lines.

Lactic acid, compared to glycolic acid, is slightly milder in nature. It not only exfoliates, but also has a good moisturizing effect, which can help the skin retain moisture and make the skin soft and elastic.

As for whether the two can be used together, it is necessary to be cautious. Both are acidic substances, and when used together, the skin may be enhanced by acidic irritation. If the skin is well tolerated and used in moderation, a more significant skin care effect may be obtained. If you want to improve rough and dull skin, in the same skin care process, first use glycolic acid products, a little cleansing and exfoliation, and then use lactic acid products to moisturize and gently condition, or complement each other.

If the skin is sensitive, use them together rashly, which may cause skin discomfort, such as redness, tingling, itching, etc. Therefore, for sensitive skin, if you want to use both of these, you should try it on a small area of skin first, and then gradually expand the scope of use after observing that there are no adverse reactions.

All in all, whether glycolic acid and lactic acid can be used together depends on the individual skin condition. Only with caution can you use the power of both to achieve the ideal skin care effect and protect the beauty of the skin.
