Glycolic Acid & Acne

A Transformation You Have to Try

As we grow older, the rate of cells regenerating and remodeling in our skin slows down. Consequently, dead cells accumulate on the surface of our skin. To unblock congested pores that are common among acne-prone complexions, exfoliation is key for creating a smoother texture and encouraging cell turnover. Therefore it’s essential to find solutions with potent smoothing properties so you can experience polished results from regular usage.

Are you familiar with Glycolic Acid? 

Glycolic Acid has the benefit of being an Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) with a smaller molecular size than any other type of Hydroxy Acids. Its tiny molecules allow it to penetrate deep into your stratum corneum, loosening the bonds that keep surface skin cells attached together. As Glycolic Acid stimulates exfoliation and removes dry skin, healthier-looking layers are revealed underneath.

The Journal of the German Dermatological Society published that products with AHAs have been proven to successfully address moderate acne. Besides, Glycolic Acid is an impressive anti-aging ingredient that works wonders on fine lines, dry patches and hyperpigmentation too. You will find it in all types of skincare items such as cleansers, toners, exfoliants and serums.

Glycolic Acid Toner

SkinCeuticals’ LHA Toner is the perfect solution for anyone looking to target skin prone to breakouts. This potent triple-action formula cleanses and purifies pores, eliminating excess residue and dead skin cells while also actively treating your complexion without causing any over drying or irritation. Spray a small amount onto a cotton round after cleansing, then gently sweep it across the face until fully absorbed – this can be done daily or as tolerated in order to uncover vibrant new healthy cells.

Benefits for Acne

Incorporating a Glycolic acid toner into your skincare regimen will manifest remarkable results. Users with sensitive skin have noticed improvements after just two days of use! Others, who continued to utilize it for an entire fortnight without changing any other aspect of their routine, reported that their complexion had noticeably softened and evened out – in short, they were left feeling “flawless”. Don’t miss out on this opportunity: add a Glycolic Acid Toner to your regime today!

Notably, Glycolic Acid makes your skin more vulnerable to the sun’s rays so using a sunscreen of SPF 15 or higher is crucial. The Skin Cancer Foundation recommends that you apply an adequate amount of broad spectrum sunscreen every day – think about it as a size equivalent to a nickel when applying on your face.

To maximize the effects of powerful, active formulas in your skincare regimen, introduce them to your routine one at a time. Additionally, we advise that you supplement this with regular professional treatments from an experienced skin care expert for best results.
