Exfoliation is very impotant as it removes any dead skin cells but care needs to be taken as over exfoliation can cause broken capillaries and redness.
Why exfoliate your face?
- Removes dead skin cells
- Brighter Complexion
Exfoliating Tips
- Try exfoliating gloves: To get the best results and to softly remove dead skin cells, don’t use a hard sponge to exfoliate. A sponge can create breeding ground for bacteria, because they tend to stay damp. You can get great results for dead skin removal by using exfoliating gloves. Simply lather a cleanser on them and lightly scrub your skin. Just be sure to rinse the gloves well after each use and let them air dry.
- Don’t Scrub Everyday! Remember, you should only be exfoliating two to three times a week.If you exfoliate more than this, you can end up with broken capillaries and redness. Of course, if your climate is warmer and you frequently experience more oily skin issues and oil production or perspiration, you’ll have more dead skin cells and may need to exfoliate more often.
- Don’t use Body Exfoliators! The best exfoliator for your face is one designed for the face. Body exfoliators are way too harsh and will definitely irritate your face.
- Don’t forget to moisturise! Exfoliation can leave your skin extremely smooth and can even give you a healthy glow. To ensure you get the silky results you desire, always use moisturiser afterwards.When you exfoliate, the dead skin cells are indeed removed. However, your skin can begin to dry out and get flaky if you don’t keep moisturiser on it at all times and can even bring on more wrinkles. When you do so, exfoliating can make your skin brighter and your skin tone will be more even. It can also lead to smaller pores and reduce the occurrence of spots.
