On the burning feeling of fruit acid
There is a strange thing in the world, containing fruit acid ingredients. When used on the skin, it often generates a burning feeling, which is called "Glycolic Acid Tingle". This feeling is unique and known to those who use fruit acid.
Those who use fruit acid are quite effective in skin care. It can rejuvenate the skin, exfoliate the old, make the skin delicate and smooth, and make the complexion radiant. However, its strong nature touches the skin and often causes a burning feeling.
When first used, the skin is like a slight thorn, like an ant walking on it, and gradually there is a burning feeling, like a light fire. This feeling may be strong or weak, your mileage may vary. Those with delicate skin feel it especially; those who tolerate it are also difficult to avoid it.
Investigate the reason, fruit acid can loosen the connection between keratinocytes, accelerate the shedding of the stratum corneum, and stimulate the metabolism of the skin. In this process, the skin is affected by its action, and nerve endings sense it, resulting in a burning sensation.
Although there is a burning sensation, those who make good use of fruit acid can control its benefits and avoid its harm. Try it at a low concentration first to make the skin gradually suitable; when using it, follow the norms and avoid contact with sensitive areas such as eyes and mouth; if the burning sensation is too strong, stop using it immediately and wash it off with water. When the skin is soothing, use it as appropriate.
Looking at this "Glycolic Acid Tingle", although it is a sign of the use of fruit acid, it is also a sign of the road to exploring skin beauty. Only by observing and using it well can you get the beauty of fruit acid and the beauty of the skin during skin care.
