On the Synergistic Application of Glycolic Acid and Salicylic Acid
The nourishment of the skin is related to the glory of the face. Glycolic acid and salicylic acid are both wonderful skin care products, but the method of synergy between the two cannot be ignored.

Glycolic acid is an alpha-hydroxy acid, whose molecules are slender and can quickly penetrate the surface of the skin, rejuvenate the keratin, and make the skin tender and shiny. Salicylic acid is a beta-hydroxy acid, which has lipophilic properties. It can enter the depths of pores, purify fat and remove scale, and relieve skin discomfort.

If you want to combine the two, you should use it according to the nature of the skin. If the skin is oily and acne-prone, you can cleanse the skin with salicylic acid first, wait for the skin to be slightly dry, and then apply glycolic acid products thinly. This sequence can first clear the filth of the pores, and then promote the renewal of the keratin, which complements each other. However, both glycolic acid and salicylic acid are irritating to a certain extent. When using them for the first time, it should be less and thinner, and the amount should be gradually increased. And when using them during the day, you must add protection to avoid direct sunlight to prevent skin damage.

As for the frequency, at the beginning, it is better to use it once or twice a week. When the skin adapts, it can be increased to two to three times a week as appropriate. If the skin feels uncomfortable, such as tingling or redness, stop using it immediately, and try again after recovery, or reduce the dosage and frequency

In short, the synergistic application of glycolic acid and salicylic acid can beautify the skin if used properly, but it will hurt the skin if used improperly. Therefore, users should be careful, follow the law according to the nature of the skin, and get the beauty of skin care.
