On the Compatibility of Glycolic Acid and Tea Tree Oil
The glycolic acid has the power of rejuvenating the skin, which can exfoliate the skin, open the pores, promote the metabolism of the skin, and make the skin glow. Tea tree oil is famous for its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory ability, and has many good effects on acne and dermatitis. If the two are reasonably compatible, they may be able to complement each other.
However, the method of compatibility should not be careless. The acidity of ethanol is acidic and has a certain irritation. Although tea tree oil is natural and mild, it may cause discomfort to some people's skin. If the two are used together, the tolerance of the skin must be tested first. Those with sensitive skin should try it on a small area of skin first to see if it has redness, swelling and itching.
When using it, order is also the key. Usually, glycolic acid can be applied first, and the skin absorption is stable, and then the tea tree oil can be thinly applied. In this way, the risk of adverse reactions caused by direct contact between the two can be avoided. And the dosage should be moderate. If the concentration of glycolic acid is too high and the tea tree oil is applied too thickly, it can increase the burden on the skin and damage the health of the skin.
In general, glycolic acid is compatible with tea tree oil, which has considerable potential. Users must carefully review the skin condition, follow a reasonable method, and abide by the principle of moderation in order to keep the skin healthy and obtain the benefits of synergy between the two.
