What is fruit acid?
Although citrus fruit peeling is superficial,  it is a chemical  process used  to close pores, even out  skin and  give the face a  real glow.
What are its features? Are there any  risks to the  skin?
Peeling is a medical- cosmetic  technique that  involves destroying the  surface layers of the  skin in a  controlled  manner to  effectively  improve  the overall  appearance of the  skin. Contrary to  popular belief, exfoliation does  not weaken the  skin. On the contrary,  it will  allow you to refinish it and  give it elasticity, erasing small defects that  change its smoothness. The  result is a uniform complexion and a radiant complexion.
Exfoliating with fruit acids (AHAs) like glycolic acid is great. Because  it is non-allergenic and with  good  results in  most cases,  it is  one of the  most  popular peels.
There are  different  types of peeling: superficial, medium and deep. It all  depends on  the size of the scars and blemishes you  want to  reduce or  remove. The acidic peeling of the fruit is the so- called superficial peeling, which makes it  possible to  obtain new  skin.
The  doctor  often uses glycolic acid,  which is  obtained from sugar cane, beet or grape extract. Used in a  more or  less  concentrated solution with a more or  less acidic pH, this compound reduces the adhesion of keratinocytes,  dead cells  in the outer layer of the epidermis.
It  will be  eliminated in  favor of  the new cells,  it’s a  real “coup”!
How do I make fruit acid?
To exfoliate the  skin and  remove  dead cells, a chemical peel made at  home  can be  done  using  natural acids  that are  found in  fresh  fruits  rich in antioxidants.

The fruit acid leaves the  skin  bright and rejuvenated,  removes spots, regulates sebum secretion, reduces wrinkles and leaves the  skin velvety. This  remedy is the archenemy of sunlight, and  the ideal is to do it  in the winter,  it can  start in November and  continue  until March  before spring and  good  weather begins.
How  to use fruit acid
