Can Arden powder glue be used together with salicylic acid? These skin care ingredients should not be mixed

Arden is doing very well in the capsule industry. Arden Powder Gel is Arden's star product and is an essence that can effectively solve facial skin problems. So, can Arden powder glue be used with salicylic acid?

Can Arden powder glue be used with salicylic acid?

cannot. Because Elizabeth Arden powder gel contains retinol, it cannot be used with salicylic acid. Just choose one of the two. Both retinol and salicylic acid are highly irritating, and the rate at which retinol is converted into acetic acid decreases in an acidic environment. If used together, the skin will be intolerant and may cause skin peeling and facial pain.

What ingredients can’t be mixed?

1. Acid + Acid

The pH value of acid ingredients such as fruit acid, salicylic acid, mandelic acid, and retinoic acid is relatively irritating to the skin. It is sufficient to choose an acid according to the skin problem. Vitamin C is also an acid ingredient that requires a low pH value to be effective, and it is not recommended to be used with fruit acid and salicylic acid products.

2. Acid + Alcohol

Retinol and high concentrations of acid disrupt the acid-base balance, intensify irritation, and cause the skin to become dry and sensitive.

3. Acid + Alkaline/Neutral pH Products

Using strong acids together with alkaline or neutral pH products will weaken the effectiveness of the acid products.

4. Alcohol + peptide ingredients

Alcohol, that is, ethanol/denatured ethanol, will destroy the protein structure of the peptide component and make it ineffective, so the two cannot be used together.

Which ingredients work best when mixed?

1. Moisturizing + Repairing

It is especially suitable for skin with damaged barrier. It uses a combination of "natural moisturizing factor + moisturizer + intercellular lipid" to moisturize and repair the barrier at the same time.

2. Whitening + anti-aging

3. Whitening + Repair

It is recommended to use anti-inflammatory ingredients + whitening ingredients + antioxidant ingredients to make the whitening effect better.
