How to get through the acid-brushing acne breakout period

Do not eat irritating foods and wear as little makeup as possible during the acid-exfoliating period. During the period of acid acne treatment, you should eat a light diet and avoid spicy food, seafood and other irritating foods. When using cosmetics, try to simplify the makeup steps, abandon liquid foundation, and choose BB cream with less foundation content or primer with color-correcting function.

Things to note when using acid peeling during acne breakouts

1. Stop using functional skin care products

The skin will become thinner and more sensitive during the acid treatment. You should stop using all functional skin care products, especially those with scrub function, otherwise it will make the skin more fragile. Therefore, you only need to cleanse + moisturize + sunscreen during the acid treatment. In order to prevent skin sensitivity, it is best to choose a milder sunscreen product.

2. Try not to wear makeup

You cannot apply facial masks or creams during the acid peeling period, and it is best not to wear makeup. If you want to put on makeup, try to simplify the steps as much as possible, abandon liquid foundation, and choose BB cream with less foundation content or primer with color-correcting function.

3. Do not eat irritating food

Try to eat light food during the acid flushing period and avoid spicy food. Also try to avoid absorbing sugar and avoid eating dairy products, cheese, bread and other foods. Excessive intake of sugar will increase the chance of developing abscesses.

What is acid scrubbing

Acid peeling is like peeling bark. Using products containing substances such as fruit acid, salicylic acid, mandelic acid, etc., depending on their concentration, they penetrate and peel off layer by layer from the stratum corneum to the epidermis, promoting the growth of new skin. Finally, the effects of whitening, removing acne, anti-inflammation, dissolving acne, shrinking pores, improving skin quality and anti-aging are achieved. Acid peeling is a "destructive construction". Blindly doing it will destroy the normal function of the skin and easily cause skin allergies. Therefore, it is not recommended for people with sensitive skin to do excessive acid peeling.
