Reaping the Skin Moisturization Benefits of Lactic Acid

If someone tells you to apply spoiled milk on your skin to moisturize it, would you follow what they say? Of course not. It simply sounds like a weird hack that your grandmother used to tell you. But in reality, science has proof for its working. It has been proved that sour milk contains lactic acid that has extraordinary skin cleansing and moisturizing properties. That is why this acid is added to a wide range of medical and commercial skin moisturizers, and their users report of improving their skin tone and texture within a few uses.

What Lactic Acid is?

Lactic acid is a larger molecule of the water-soluble, alpha-hydroxy acid family, which is known to stay on the outer layers of the skin for long. Apart from milk, this acid is also present in some fruit sugars. By staying on the top layer of your skin, it removes dead cells from there, as a result of which you end up revealing an even, brighter and moisturized skin that was kept hidden underneath all this while.

The best thing is that lactic acid is suitable for all skin types. So, whatever your skin type is, if you long for an even, hydrated, and brighter skin, lactic acid could be the one that can give you extraordinary exfoliating and moisturizing effects. The purest medical-grade high-strength Lactic Acid 12% (Ammonium Lactate) cream you may order in OKDERMO Skin Store – just check the link.

How Lactic Acid Works?

Lactic acid is a great skin exfoliator that causes dull, old skin cells to slough away and accelerates the process of cell turnover and renewal. The acid works on your skin cells to reveal smoother, softer, and brighter skin underneath. If used regularly, lactic acid can bring real changes in your skin by exfoliating and improving your skin texture. The unique thing about this acid is that it improves your skin’s natural hydration factor so that your skin feels less dry and moisturized.

With regular use, it also improves signs of aging by stimulating collagen production. It can fade hyperpigmentation, and smoothen out wrinkles and fine lines. By dissolving skin cell plugs built up around the skin pores, it can smoothen out the bumpiness. It is also used in a wide range of topical products used for the treatment of psoriasis, rosacea, and eczema. However, consult your dermatologist before using lactic acid for the treatment of any of these conditions.

How to Use Lactic Acid for Skin Moisturization

You can find OTC product containing lactic acid in OKDERMO Store. Jumping on to a high potency product will only irritate your skin, which means that you should always start off with a product with low lactic acid concentration. Products with lactic acid are available in a variety of forms, including skin cleansers, creams, serums, lotions, peels, masks, etc. Choose the one that you can easily incorporate into your daily routine. As far as choosing the right concentration is concerned, start with small, and keep increasing until you achieve the desired results.

Remember, whichever lactic acid product you choose, keep your skin protected from the sun while using it, as it can increase your skin sensitivity and make it more prone to sun damage.
