[10 ways to balance the pH of your skin] Part 4 **Appropriate use of peeling agents**

Peeling agents may be used to promote skin turnover, but be sure to use them at an appropriate frequency to reduce skin irritation.


Peeling agents are used to accelerate skin metabolism and promote smoother, brighter skin by removing dead skin cells and sebum. However, care must be taken when choosing a peeling agent and using it properly. Below are some general guidelines for choosing and using a peeling agent.


### How to choose a peeling agent:


#### 1. **Peeling agent type:**

- **Chemical peeling agents:** Products containing acids such as glycolic or lactic acid. Effectively dissolves dead skin cells.

- **Physical peeling agent:** Contains small particles and fibers that physically remove dead skin cells.


#### 2. **Choose according to your skin type:**

- **Sensitive skin:** Physical peels may be more suitable than chemical peels.

- **Oily skin:** Chemical peels may be effective in controlling excess sebum.


#### 3. **Pay attention to ingredients:**

- **Avoid Sensitive Ingredients:** Make sure there are no irritants, such as fragrances or alcohol.


#### 4. **Product Reliability:**

- Choose reliable brands and products. Checking reviews and reputation can be helpful.


### Proper use of peeling agents:


#### 1. **Adjust frequency:**

- If you are using it for the first time, start with once a week and gradually increase the amount depending on your skin's reaction.


#### 2. **Use after face wash:**

- Peeling agents are most effective when used on clean skin. Suitable after washing your face.


#### 3. **Use in moderation:**

- Follow the instructions and massage gently without applying excessive force.


#### 4. **Avoid around the eyes and mouth:**

- Avoid using exfoliants around the eyes and mouth as these areas are sensitive areas.


#### 5. **Daytime UV protection:**

- Your skin will be sensitive after a peel, so it's important to moisturize well and use sunscreen.


#### 6. **Signs to be aware of:**

- If you notice any abnormalities such as itching, redness, or rash on your skin after you start using it, stop using it.


#### 7. **Expert advice:**

- Depending on your skin condition, it is important to seek advice from a dermatologist or beauty specialist.


The use of peeling agents differs from person to person, so it is important to pay attention to the condition and sensitivity of your skin and take appropriate care. Also, be careful about how often you use it so as not to remove necessary exfoliation.
