One of the most popular and widely used of all the glycolic products are glycolic acid facial cleansers, read on to find out more about how glycolic acid can turn even the most common of facial cleansers into a potent tool in your daily beautification regime.

Why Would you Want to use a Glycolic Facial Cleanser Anyway…?

Let’s face it (sorry for the pun), when it comes down to it your face is the first thing that you and everybody else in the world notices about you each and every day. Your face is your own unique portal that bridges the gap between your most inner thoughts and desires and that in which you choose to project onto the world around you.

Regardless of whether you consider yourself ridiculously good looking or whether you feel more modest in your physical characteristics it is undeniable that knowing that you’ve worked hard to maintain pimple-less, blotch free, fresh clear skin can help you harness the confidence to embrace the world and make the most of each and every situation that life presents you!

Glycolic acid facial cleansers are very similar to regular facial cleanser’s in their operation and facial health care benefits. However where glycolic facial cleansers really stand out is in their ability to deeply penetrate the skins surface and work deep within your skin cell structure to either hydrate or dehydrate your skins natural PH balance and cure the symptoms of dry or oily skin. The unique nature of glycolic acid gives your facial cleanser additional capabilities to break down the dirt and oils trapped within your skins pores which directly translates into softer, smoother and more glowing skin each and every day.

How does a Glycolic Acid Facial Cleanser Work?

By adding glycolic acid to a regular facial cleanser we are essentially strengthening an already essential skin care product and making it much more effective at combating the day to day dirt, wear and tear that builds up on our skin. Think about regular facial cleansers as a stock standard model with just enough features to help you clean your skin – the equivalent of using only warm soapy water to clean the dirt and grime off your car – sure it’s clean on the extremities but has it really been thoroughly cleaned throughout all the nooks and crannies?

Glycolic Acid Facial Cleanser on the other hand is the feature filled sibling of regular facial cream boasting additional cleansing properties at much the same cost – to follow our analogy glycolic cleansing is like first washing your car with warm soapy water, then detailing every nook and cranny, and finally waxing, polishing and buffing back the finish of your cars exterior – giving you a sparkly clean finish inside and out.

It works like this…glycolic acid when applied to our skin through the cleanser, works deep within your skins porous surface to loosen the rubber like substances that hold our dirty and aging skins cells together on the surface of our skin. The result is that more grime, oil and old skin is loosened and removed than regular facial cleansers; leaving you with soft, beautifully fresh skin shining through that will leave you feeling a million dollars.

How to Choose the Right Glycolic Cleanser for your face…

Everybody’s face is different from shape, height, length and width to color, porousness, texture, complexion and resilience; as such it is incredibly important to choose a facial cleansing product that will complement your unique facial requirements rather than exacerbate any underlying problems that may be evident prior to your cleansing regime.

Below we’ve listed a few simple steps to choosing a product that’s not going to waste your time, effort and money, or worse cause any skin related problems for you.

• Glycolic Acid Facial Cleansers come in a wide variety of strengths; from low glycolic acid concentrations from 10 – 20% to much more potent concentrations of anywhere up to 50 – 60% – until you know how your skin will react to the natural chemical compound you should exercise caution and begin with a mild glycolic concentrration in the range of 10 – 20%
• As you and your skin get more comfortable using a glycolic acid based product you can slowly begin to increase the concentration within your beauty products until you find a level that provides the best results
• Ensure that any product you buy lists the glycolic acid percentage, Ph levels of the product and comes with detailed instructions for its daily use
• Ensure that the product was formulated according the FDA certified guidelines and has a purity no less than 99 percent

In order to achieve a well rounded skin care regime a variety of complementary products should be used in conjunction with your glycolic acid facial cleanser to achieve optimal results and have your skin looking and feeling truly amazing. Try combining your glycolic facial cleanser with a glycolic moisturizer, glycolic facial cream and a glycolic toner for optimal results!
