Daily use can accelerate the change of stratum corneum cells. In moderation, the skin can be rejuvenated, the color is uniform, and the touch is smooth. Because the old cuticle can be peeled off in time, new cells emerge.

However, daily use of glycolic acid also poses risks. The skin has its own regulatory mechanism, and the stratum corneum is its protective shield. If the daily excessive stimulation with glycolic acid, the stratum corneum or thinning, the skin's defense is weakened. External stimuli, such as sunlight, wind and sand, hot and cold changes, etc., can easily make the skin uncomfortable, redness, itching, tingling symptoms or present.

Beginners should choose low-concentration products, such as 2% - 5% concentration, and then increase the concentration when the skin adapts. In addition, it needs to be accompanied by appropriate skin care steps. After using glycolic acid, you should replenish water and moisturize in time, and apply a mild moisturizer to protect the skin barrier. Daytime use, especially sun protection, because glycolic acid makes the skin more sensitive to ultraviolet rays.

For oily and well-tolerated skin, you can try to use it daily, but you still need to pay close attention to the skin's reaction and adjust the skin care strategy in a timely manner to achieve the best effect of skin care and maintain the health of the skin.
