Why do you need to exfoliate?

Maybe exfoliation is part of your skin care routine, maybe you have yet to discover the wonders of exfoliation. Turns out that exfoliating is actually a key step of a good skin care routine. The concept of exfoliation is actually pretty straight forward: It clears dead skin cells from your face and breathe new life into your complexion. Sounds too good to be true? Well, here are the top benefits of exfoliation.

  • It evens out your skin tone. Exfoliation helps to smoothen the rough texture, acne scars or dark spots on your skin, leaving your skin feeling smoother and softer. 

  • It clears your complexion. Exfoliating can clear dead skin cells from the surface, clean pores and fight acne while lightening scars or hyperpigmentation. 

  • It helps skincare products penetrate deeper. When dead cells are sitting on your skin, they can block oils and moisturisers from penetrating into the skin. By exfoliating your skin, your products can penetrate deeply. The last thing you want is that face serum you got from Sephora to be hindered by dead skin and pore-clogging material. 

  • It boost circulation and new cell formation. Age, sun damage and hormonal changes can slow down your body’s natural shedding process. Exfoliation helps to remove toxins and unhealthy debris while boosting cellular health to a glowy, radiant skin.
