Choque de activos: cuidado al mezclar estos productos con retinol

Crédito: Disney/Marvel

Imagínese hacer un batido y verter todo tipo de ingredientes en la licuadora, desde manzanas hasta helado y salmón. Si bien estos alimentos saben bien por sí solos, cuando se mezclan, se convierte en una gran taza de bleh.

Del mismo modo, si bien los activos para el cuidado de la piel pueden ser buenos por sí solos, cuando aplicas demasiados, corres el riesgo de que los productos choquen. A veces, causa irritación y, en otros casos, los activos pueden anularse entre sí. Eso sería un desperdicio, ¿no?

Si está usando un producto con retinol para combatir el acné, como nuestro todopoderoso Clear Out, aquí hay algunos ingredientes comunes para el cuidado de la piel que debe tener más en cuenta:

Peróxido de benzoílo

Como uno de los productos más populares que existen para eliminar el acné, el peróxido de benzoílo es efectivo para matar la bacteria P. acnes que causa las espinillas y elimina las células muertas de la piel. Es algo bastante fuerte, pero cuando se combina con retinol, los activos pueden terminar desactivándose entre sí, haciéndolos menos efectivos.

Qué hacer: Elija uno. No hay necesidad de tener ambos titanes en tu rutina. Pero si lo desea, intente usar peróxido de benzoílo por la mañana y retinol por la noche.


AHA

Los AHA, como el ácido glicólico y el ácido láctico, actúan exfoliando la capa más externa de la piel. Si bien el retinol y AHA pueden funcionar bien juntos en una rutina de cuidado de la piel, también existe la posibilidad de que irriten la piel, dejándola roja, con escozor, ardor y descamación. Esto es especialmente preocupante si tienes la piel sensible.

Qué hacer: Experimente cómo reacciona su piel a estos activos comenzando con uno de ellos primero. Si no hay irritación, puedes empezar a introducir el otro activo en tu rutina. Aún así, es mejor espaciar estos ingredientes. Considere aplicar AHA por la mañana (seguido de su protector solar) y retinol por la noche.


BHA

Al igual que los AHA, los BHA como el ácido salicílico son excelentes exfoliantes. Los BHA penetran profundamente en los poros para descomponer las células muertas de la piel y el aceite, lo que los convierte en excelentes adiciones a la rutina para la piel propensa al acné. Pero, también pueden estar secándose. Dependiendo de la concentración, cuando se usa junto con retinol, existe el riesgo de irritación.

Qué hacer: Use BHA por la mañana y retinol por la noche.

Nota: mientras que Balancing Cleanser, nuestro limpiador recomendado para personas con piel grasa, está formulado con ácido glicólico y ácido salicílico para descomponer el sebo, es perfectamente seguro usarlo con Clear Out todas las noches. Esto se debe a que hemos agregado productos botánicos para mantener el limpiador efectivo pero suave para la piel. De hecho, es uno de los lavados AHA + BHA más suaves que existen.


Vitamina C

La vitamina C es un célebre antioxidante que nos protege de los villanos que atacan nuestra piel, como los rayos UV y la contaminación. Pero cuando se mezcla con retinol, algunos pueden experimentar irritación y sensibilidad.

Qué hacer: Nuevamente, esto no significa que deba eliminar completamente la vitamina C de su rutina. Simplemente aplique su producto de vitamina C durante el día y use retinol por la noche.


Más retinol

El retinol, y especialmente el retinol de grado médico en Clear Out, ya es un activo poderoso. Así que no hay necesidad de usarlo dos veces en tu rutina. Al hacerlo, incluso podría correr el riesgo de irritación.

Qué hacer: ¡Elija un producto potenciado con retinol y estará listo para comenzar!

Al final del día, lo mejor es escuchar a tu piel.Su rutina de cuidado de la piel debe ser personal para usted, así que si encuentra que aplicar capas de estos activos potencialmente conflictivos funciona para usted, ¡adelante!

Comments: Any ideas on how to get rid of brown skin damage
Skin defence

Marks of sun damage are still there they haven't faded much after using twice a day for 60 days. . I will continue until product is finished. I'm a bit disappointed

Skin Type: Combination

I am so happy that I stumbled upon clearly basics on instagram. I was skeptical at first but decided to give it a try and bought clear out clarifying lotion. It's been 2 months and my skin has improved a lot. I can see significant reduction in pores and acne.

Skin Type: Combination
Amazing

After years of medication and products, I decided to try clearly basics. In just 6 weeks my skin has calmed and I am now able to treat scarring.

So glad to have found these products!

Finding products that helped to control my acne without irritating my sensitive skin has always been a huge challenge. The clearly basics products have been my saviour, I can't recommend them enough ☺️

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Excellent and actually works

I am so incredibly impressed with the TLC for pore minimising - it 💯 works and has transformed my skin.

I’m in my 50’s and always had hormonal flare ups with larger pores as I age - this is a game changer and have just reordered my 3rd bottle !

❤️❤️❤️❤️

This is the stuff.

So, long time sufferer of acne. Started when I was 12 and I'm 28 now still battling it. I've tried all kinds of different things to try and get it under control and besides birth control, nothing has helped long term. I never want to take birth control ever again and I just happened upon this brand and decided well, why not try? To my amazement, it has helped more than anything else I've tried, I'd say it has improved my skin to the level it was at when I took BC. Of course I still get pimples every now and then, and tiny flare ups during PMS but my skin is nowhere near as bad as it used to be. I highly recommend this company. To those who are considering trying this out, be aware that during the first week or so your skin will go through a purge and your acne will appear to get worse at first. Stick with it! Once that phase is over is when your skin will begin improving. I do need to use it every night for it to be fully effective, but even when I do forget, the pimples don't get too out of control. I just can't say enough good things about this product. It has helped my confidence improve immensely and I definitely recommend trying it to those who have skin as finicky as mine.

Here one day, gone the next!

After success with Clearly Basics for my acne scars, I stocked up with all of the active acne products to prepare myself for how angry my acne would get when going off hormonal birth control. I have tried and failed twice as my acne comes back so bad that I just start taking it again. This time I have been using clearly basics without fail every day (lighten up and clear out). I have had 3 pimples start to form and I use ‘Stop Spot’ and the next day instead of a much redder, much angrier pimple with a big white head - the pimple is gone! I have been very happy with this product. I’m one month down (typically when acne gets the worst) - let’s do this!

I love that these products are gentle on my daughter skin.

This skin care routine is the o lay one that has helped clear up my daughters skin.

My daughters skin is really starting to look better!

So far so good

Bought this for my daughter that has struggled with acne for years. She has seen improvement and less frequent breakouts.

Best moisturizer I have found!

Fresh Feeling

My skin feels so clean and still hydrated when I use this cleanser. It’s balancing and refreshing. My skin has responded really well to it and at times my skin can be sensitive. I highly recommend this product to anyone with relatively oily t-zone area

Very happy!

Love the texture, the minty scent and the lather.
I wish the bottles were a bit bigger HOWEVER they are just small enough to fly with.

Comments: The only thing I now need to use to keep my skin clear.
The holy grail for clearing hormonal acne.

This is the only product that I have needed to keep my skin clear since discovering it about 2 years ago, after suddenly developing cystic hormonal acne at the age of 25. I now only need to use it every second night, so it's incredibly affordable. It has also never irritated my sensitive skin and it has faded previous acne marks to truly clear my skin. After years of trying expensive supplements/products/harsh prescription creams, Clear Out was the only thing that gave me long-lasting results.

Skin Type: Oily
Clearly Basics is the only product that has helped my Adult Acne

I have always struggled with dehydrated acne prone skin. Every month like clockwork I would get a new breakout on my chin or cheek area. These included large cystic acne that by the time they came to a head would take me months to clear. With new breakouts each month this created more & more spots before the first could heal leaving more hyper pigmentation spots that never have time to clear. Clearly basics changed all that for me. It gave my skin a chance to heal and reduced the number of breakouts each month. When I do get a new breakout it resolves itself quickly with less scarring and redness. Now that the acne is under control the products are helping to eliminate the remaining hyper pigmentation spots left from years of acne. I have not been using the product for long but I will continuing relying on this product and look forward to the day I can happily look in the mirror at a smooth clear & even complexion some day soon.

Comments: Product consistency in terms of smoothness/coarseness/stickiness/ is sometimes a miss, don't believe it affects the result provided.
Great Combo

Have seen great improvements by using these 2 items concurrently, hard to fault and wil continue purchasing.
