Acid peeling at home. Learn the rules of safe exfoliation of the epidermis

Do we need peeling?

Regular exfoliation of the top layer of the skin stimulates the cells to rebuild. The use of peels also has a smoothing, cleansing and detoxifying effect. Exfoliation is not a process intended only for oily, contaminated skin with enlarged pores, although it is often mentioned here. Experts of Drogeria Pigment emphasize the importance of exfoliating dead epidermis also in the case of dry, sensitive skin with age-related wrinkles. Moreover, the peeling is not only intended for the skin of our face. Let us not forget about comprehensive care for the whole body. A good example is , which is intended not only for the skin, but also for use on various parts of the body, such as arms, back or buttocks.

AHA peeling 30% in the assortment of the Polish brand

What is the mechanism of action of AHA acids? They reduce the adhesion of the cells of the stratum corneum, resulting in its gentle exfoliation. In the aforementioned Lynia product, we find an effective combination of several different acids. AHA constitutes ± 30% of the total composition of the product.

• Almond – lightening discoloration and moisturizing. It stimulates cells to produce collagen and elastin, smoothes and regulates the secretion of sebum by the sebaceous glands.
• Glycolic – has a very strong absorption due to its small molecule. It has a smoothing effect on small wrinkles, helps to cope with discoloration of various origins and tightens enlarged pores.
• Wine – is responsible for slowing down the aging processes and evens out the skin tone.
• Lactic – has strong moisturizing properties. It works well in the care of skin with enlarged pores, discoloration, and at the same time dry, damaged, for example, excessive exposure to the sun.
• Lemon – dedicated to contaminated skin, affected by the problem of loss of firmness, rough skin with numerous discolorations – it inhibits the synthesis of skin dyes.

Why does such an acid complex turn out to be exceptionally hit? The peeling, thanks to the combination of acids with a different spectrum of action, will work in the care of all skin types, including sensitive skin. Let’s not forget that sensitive skin also requires regular exfoliation. An interesting ingredient in Lynia peeling is gluconolactone. It is one of the PHA acids that show strong antioxidant, moisturizing and regenerating properties. Its advantage is the strengthening of the hydrolipid barrier. It is worth paying attention to this, because the disturbance of the protective layer is a problem that affects both oily, acne and dry skin with hypersensitivity.

Precautions During Acid Treatment – What You Should Know?

The skin after acid peeling is definitely more sensitive and susceptible to damage. Therefore, try to avoid full exposure to the sun. Regardless of the season, protect your skin with a sunscreen. In addition, adjust the frequency and duration of the acid peel application to the condition of your skin, and do not forget to use complementary skincare. In the field of sun protection, the experts of Drogeria Pigment recommend Algodrops from the Sensum Mare brand. It is a product that provides high protection of SPF 50 against a wide spectrum of radiation – not only UV, but also blue and infrared light. This cosmetic contains a combination of as many as 6 different filters – chemical and mineral. Innovative, light formula, such as drops, allowed to minimize the bleaching effect.

Is acid peeling a panacea for all skin ailments?

AHA acid peel can be an effective solution to many skin problems. However, will one cosmetic help you deal with all imperfections and skin dysfunctions on your own? It is worth considering enhancing its action with additional active ingredients that do not conflict with AHA acids. Acid peeling reduces the adhesion of the cells of the stratum corneum, which results in its exfoliation. The next step will be to rebuild the top layer of the skin. For this purpose, the peeling itself with a well-thought-out complex of ingredients comes to the rescue. One of the most important rules that should not be forgotten is the time of using the product. Initially, let’s not exceed 3, and ultimately 10 minutes – as the manufacturer informs us. Keeping peeling for too long may lead to micro-damage to the structure of our skin.

And after acids … Time for hydration and soothing

Immediately after the exfoliation treatment with acid peeling, we may encounter a feeling of skin irritation, which after a while – longer or shorter – should pass. However, it is worth helping our skin to rebuild. Experts of Drogeria Pigment especially recommend Microbiotic soothing and moisturizing cream from Bielenda Professional. There are valuable ingredients here – trehalose and squalane. However, that’s not all – the cream, thanks to the content of a complex of probiotics and prebiotics, will help restore the skin’s balance.
