Question

Why doesn't citric or tartaric acid cause skin burns?

Answer 1

if you leave enough of it in contact with the skin, for a long enough time, it will cause a chemical burn. ... The skin itself is also naturally acidic, with a pH of about 5.5. The acid mantle of the skin helps protect it, and the sebum and fatty acids work to also neutralize the effects of lemon juice.
