Many of us might hesitate to purchase a chemical peel or visit a salon for one. That’s why we’re sharing a simple method to create your own alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) chemical peel at home.
Chemical peels are an excellent way to exfoliate your skin, leaving it smooth and radiant. They effectively remove impurities like acne, pimples, or blackheads. In fact, using a chemical peel is one of the most efficient methods to eliminate blackheads at home.
Another major benefit of chemical peels is their ability to remove the top layer of skin, which often contains dead skin cell buildup and damage from tanning.
So, why not try making a DIY chemical peel and experience its amazing effects for yourself? It’s easy to prepare and can do wonders for your skin. Let’s get started!
Steps to Make a DIY AHA Chemical Peel# Step 1:Start by adding white cane sugar to a bowl and mix it with plain yogurt. Both ingredients are rich in glycolic acid (AHA).
# Step 2:Stir the mixture until it forms a thick, slightly grainy paste. For best results, use powdered sugar instead of granulated.
# Step 3:Using your fingertips, generously apply the mixture to your face, avoiding the eye area.
# Step 4:Let the homemade peel sit on your face for 15–20 minutes, gently rubbing it in intervals. Once it has dried completely, peel it off and rinse your face with cold water to close your pores.
Results:After rinsing, your skin will feel incredibly soft and smooth, with a noticeable glow. The sugar's texture effectively removes dead skin cells, while the lactic acid in the yogurt brightens and moisturizes the skin, leaving it baby-soft and radiant.
And that’s how simple it is to create a chemical peel at home!
