INCI: CITRIC ACID - Citric acid in skin care: Natural freshness for your skin
What is citric acid?
Citric acid, an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) that occurs naturally in citrus fruits, is known in skincare for its exfoliating and skin-brightening properties. It is a popular ingredient in many skincare products.
The benefits of citric acid for the skin
Citric acid promotes skin renewal, combats pigmentation spots and improves skin tone. As an AHA, it helps to remove dead skin cells and gives the skin a fresher and more radiant appearance.
Exfoliating effect
Citric acid's ability to gently exfoliate the top layer of skin makes it an effective ingredient for products aimed at clearer and smoother skin.
Brightening the skin tone
Citric acid helps to reduce pigmentation and even out skin tone. It helps to minimise the appearance of sun damage and age spots.
Improving skin texture
By promoting cell renewal, citric acid helps to improve skin texture and minimise the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Use of citric acid in skin care
Citric acid can be found in a variety of skincare products, including facial cleansers, scrubs, serums and creams. It is particularly suitable for oily and acne-prone skin.
Safety and tolerability
Although citric acid is generally safe, it can cause irritation to sensitive skin. It is important to use sun protection as AHAs can make the skin more sensitive to light.
Conclusion
Citric acid is an effective and versatile active ingredient in skincare. Its ability to exfoliate, brighten and rejuvenate the skin makes it a valued ingredient in many skincare formulations.
