Function of Glycolic acid:
- Glycolic acid is an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) with a small molecular structure, which allows it to easily penetrate the stratum corneum of the skin.
- Glycolic acid increases the skin’s ability to retain moisture.
- It can stimulate the metabolism of skin cells and promote the proliferation and differentiation of epidermal cells.
Application of Glycolic acid:
- Skin care ingredients: widely used in various skin care products, such as creams, lotions, essences, etc.
- Treatment of skin diseases: In dermatological treatment, glycolic acid can be used to treat some skin diseases, such as acne, seborrheic dermatitis, etc.
- Since glycolic acid has good solubility and acidity, it can be used to clean oxides and dirt on metal surfaces.
