What Is Glycolic Acid?

Glycolic acid is the smallest alpha-hydroxy acid. It is commonly sourced from sugar cane. It has been widely researched and is one of the most well-studied kinds of Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs). The fact that Glycolic Acid is such a small molecule means that it can penetrate the skin quickly, making it suitable for skincare. 

Glycolic Acid for Skincare

As well as being in use for decades in many popular skincare products by leading brands such as Chanel, the Ordinary by Deciem and Paula’s Choice, Glycolic acid is also commonly used in dermatological peels. 

How Glycolic acid benefits the skin?

Glycolic acid is beneficial in reducing blemishes, scars, or marks on the skin. It is also used to obtain even skin texture and is a vital ingredient in any anti-aging skincare regime. Glycolic acid is also one of the products used in the fight against acne. 

Exfoliation and Anti Acne properties of Glycolic Acid

The main function of Glycolic Acid in skincare is to exfoliate and remove dead skin cells. That is how Glycolic acid is beneficial to acne-prone skin, as it reduces and breaks down clogged pores and built-in sebum. It is this build-up of sebum and proteins that lead to acne. 

Glycolic acid as an Anti-Aging product 

Glycolic acid is also a popular anti-aging product. As we age, our cell turnover decreases which means that our skin looks dull. Glycolic acid gets rid of the dead skin cells. This removal of dull, dead skin cells gives skin back some measure of a youthful, dewy glow. 

Glycolic Acid evens out texture and improves skin tone. 

Exfoliation of the outermost layer means that the build-up of pigmentation and sunspots in the cells is also partially removed. Exfoliation also improves skin tone and evens out the skin’s color. The skin’s texture is smoothened by the removal of irregular and rough cells by Glycolic acid.  

Glycolic acid improves absorption of other skincare products

Using glycolic acid and other mild exfoliators result in a better absorption of actives like  retinol, Vitamin C ,Peptides.
