Five Skin Acids:

Skin acids are natural substances that are produced by the body. They are found in the skin and hair, where they make up a part of sebum (an oily substance secreted by sebaceous glands) to maintain healthy skin and hair, as well as regulate moisture levels in your pores. Our body can lose or lack these acids over time, this is where using skin acids come in handy!
We’re pretty sure that you’ve heard of skin acid products before, They have a no-frills approach that focuses on efficacy and affordability, which we also appreciate. There are so many benefits to these products, but here are the best :

1. Niacinamide Acid
Niacinamide is a powerful anti-inflammatory and can be used to treat blemishes. This product is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive ones. In addition to this, It is a powerful antioxidant that can be used to treat acne, rosacea and other skin conditions. It's also great for hair and scalp health! Vitamin B3 (niacinamide) has been shown to improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while reducing excess oil production on oily skin types. The addition of zinc helps reduce breakouts by regulating sebum production in the skin's pores, causing them to shrink down over time so they don't look as big or pores-y anymore! You can use it as part of your daily routine, or add it as an extra step after cleansing but before moisturizing (or vice versa). Apply one or two drops on your fingertips and rub them together until they turn white; then press gently onto cleansed skin in circular motions all over your face until fully absorbed into the skin.

2. Retinol Acid
Retinol is one of the most powerful ingredients in skincare, but it can also be a little intimidating to use. You only need to use a small amount as it will absorb into your skin quickly and leave no residue behind. It helps reduce fine lines, wrinkles and sun damage while boosting collagen production for firmer skin and It's also used to treat acne and psoriasis. It's one of those products where less is more: start with only once or twice per week until your skin gets used to this powerful ingredient before moving up to three times per week if needed (or even daily). Retinol is also one of the most gentle forms of retinoids available on the market today - so don't worry if you are new to using this ingredient!

3. Hyaluronic Acid
This is a great product to use as either a serum or a moisturizer. It helps to improve the appearance of skin, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, boost hydration and collagen production. It works by attracting water from the environment into your skin cells. This results in plumping up your skin so that it looks younger and healthier. The best thing about this product is that it's very affordable!
Hyaluronic acid (also known as hyaluronan) is found naturally in our bodies, where it's responsible for keeping our joints lubricated, providing cushioning for organs like the eyes and brain, and supporting our connective tissues by retaining water so that they stay plump rather

than becoming dry and brittle over time. Hyaluronic Acid contains two forms: sodium hyaluronate (which is derived from rooster combs) and potassium hyaluronate (which comes from horse chestnuts). These both help boost hydration levels also while improving elasticity.

4. Salicylic Acid
Salicylic acid is a naturally occurring chemical found in fruits and vegetables. It's also an effective acne treatment, and can help prevent recurrence of the condition for some people. It can be used to lighten areas of darker skin, like freckles or age spots. It can also help fade hyperpigmented acne scars, especially when combined with hydroquinone. Salicylic acid works by exfoliating the outer layer of skin to remove dead cells that can clog pores. This also helps clear up blackheads and whiteheads more quickly than other treatments like drying agents like alcohol or witch hazel.

5. Azelaic Acid
Azelaic acid is a naturally occurring acid found in whole grains, yeast and animal products. It's also produced by human skin when exposed to sunlight. Azelaic acid serum helps to reduce acne and hyperpigmentation (brown spots). It also helps in reducing inflammation and has a skin calming effect. It is best to apply a thin layer to the affected spots twice a day (morning and evening) and gently massage it.
These are the top 5 best known acids that can actually improve your skin condition and can be added to your daily skin care no matter your age or what type of skin you have!
