Skin that has been exfoliated feels fresher, is glowing and radiant, free of impurities and dead skin cells. This process also makes it easier for skin to absorb moisture and other skin care treatments. 

 

The purpose of exfoliation is to allow skin to breathe, not to harm it. So it’s important to choose a mild exfoliating product that will gently remove dirt and residue from your skin. Fine spherical beads will be kinder to your skin than products containing grainy particles.

 

Exfoliate your skin once or twice a week, preferably in the evening. Exfoliating in the evening, before bed, is better since you don’t need to go out in public with reddish spots that may be left over from the process. Furthermore, cellular regeneration reaches its peak during the night. You freshly exfoliated skin will benefit from the active ingredient in your night skin care products.
