Ageing Skin Care: Understanding Common AHA Molecules
Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs) are gaining popularity in the fight against aging skin. Widely added to beauty and skincare products, AHAs help maintain youthful-looking skin. Let's explore some of the most common AHA molecules and their benefits.
Glycolic Acid
Glycolic acid is among the most frequently used AHAs in skincare, naturally derived from sugar cane. Its small molecular size allows it to penetrate the skin swiftly, aiding in the removal of dead skin cells by loosening the “glue” that holds them. This exfoliation process leaves the skin looking cleaner and fresher. By promoting faster cell turnover, glycolic acid can also smooth fine wrinkles and treat blackheads by reducing excess surface oil. It may even stimulate some collagen production and helps retain skin moisture by binding water. Additionally, glycolic acid enhances the effectiveness of other skincare ingredients by helping them penetrate deeper.
Lactic Acid
Derived from milk, lactic acid has been a skincare staple for centuries?"think luxurious milk baths for softer skin. It is an excellent moisturizer that helps the skin retain water and a gentle exfoliator that removes dead skin cells. Often, it is combined with other AHAs in skincare products for synergistic effects.
Citric Acid
Citric acid, found in citrus fruits, is another AHA that boosts collagen production and reduces skin spots. While not a strong exfoliator, citric acid is a powerful antioxidant, neutralizing free radicals that contribute to skin aging. Its use in skincare has been a part of traditional home remedies for a long time.
Malic and Tartaric Acids
Although malic and tartaric acids are not typically used alone in skincare treatments, they are valuable when combined with other AHAs. These mixes provide a broad range of benefits, enhancing the effectiveness of AHA-based skincare products.
