Glycolic Acid in Body Lotion
On the Utility of Glycolic Acid in Body Lotion
There are skin care techniques in the world, among which body lotion is very important for skin care. Glycolic acid in body lotion has unique properties.

Glycolic acid belongs to the class of fruit acids. Its molecules are small and can easily penetrate the stratum corneum of the skin. In body lotion, it can first promote the renewal of the stratum corneum. The stratum corneum of the skin has been around for a long time, and the old cells accumulate, causing the skin to be dull and rough. Glycolic acid can loosen the connections between the keratinocytes, causing the old keratin to fall off naturally, allowing the new cells to move up, and the skin to appear smooth and tender.

Furthermore, glycolic acid can stimulate the synthesis of collagen in the dermis. Collagen is the key to maintaining skin elasticity. With age, the synthesis of human collagen gradually slows down, and the skin is prone to relaxation. The glycolic acid in the body lotion can stimulate the activity of related cells, promote collagen proliferation, make the skin firm and elastic, and reduce the formation of wrinkles.

And glycolic acid has a moisturizing effect. It can combine with water molecules to increase the water content of the stratum corneum of the skin. In dry seasons, the body lotion containing glycolic acid can effectively relieve dry and peeling skin, keeping the skin hydrated at all times.

However, the use of body lotion containing glycolic acid should also be cautious. Because of its certain irritation, those with sensitive skin may feel slightly tingling and redness when first using it. Therefore, such people should try it on a small area of skin before they can use it normally.

In general, glycolic acid in body milk, if used reasonably, is of great benefit to skin maintenance and can help everyone achieve healthy and beautiful skin.
