Choosing a peeling cream
Facial peeling creams vary in composition. Their choice depends on the problem, skin type and age of the patient.
The cleansing effect of the peeling cream is due to the activity of the following ingredients:
- alpha-hydroxy or fruit acids (citric, malic, glycolic, lactic and others);
- resorcinol;
- vitamin C (ascorbic acid);
- carbolic acid;
- salicylic acid;
- polymers;
- abrasive particles of pumice, sea salt;
- chopped almonds, fruit seeds.
To soften the effect of aggressive components, the composition includes plant extracts and oils, antioxidants, and amino acids. To enhance the rejuvenating effect, hyaluronic acid, hydrolyzed collagen and elastin are added to the creams.
When choosing a peeling cream, attention is also paid to the client’s age. It is recommended to start using peeling creams after the age of 25, when the skin quickly becomes clogged and is unable to independently cope with the accumulated dead cells, dirt and fatty particles.
After 40, you should turn to creams containing strong and active acids. But women aged 50+ will need specialist advice and more effective techniques.
Moisturizers with SPF that you will need when using acids
- Avene Hydrance Cream, 1,437 rubles - a pharmacy moisturizing cream also protects from the sun thanks to SPF 30. Nourishes dry skin and prevents age spots and wrinkles.

Judging by the reviews, it does not clog pores and does not provoke inflammation. On the contrary, it moisturizes the skin and soothes it.
