Tip 7. Regular Skin Exfoliation: The Key to Brighter, Smoother Skin
Exfoliation plays a vital role in any natural skincare routine. This essential practice aids in removing the barrier of dead skin cells, thereby uncovering the fresh, new cells underneath. By incorporating regular exfoliation into your routine, you’re paving the way for brighter, smoother skin.
Our skin naturally sheds dead cells, but this process slows down as we age. When these cells pile up, they can leave the skin looking dull, rough, and dry. Furthermore, the build-up can result in excess oil and clogged pores, leading to blemishes and acne. Regular exfoliation can help prevent these issues.
By removing the layer of dead skin cells and opening up your pores, exfoliation allows your skincare products to penetrate more deeply into the skin, which makes them more effective. Whether you’re using natural oils, serums, or moisturizers, regular exfoliation ensures that you’re getting the maximum benefits from your skincare products.
There are two main types of exfoliation: mechanical and chemical. Mechanical exfoliation involves physically scrubbing your skin with a natural scrub or a brush. On the other hand, chemical exfoliation uses natural acids or enzymes to dissolve dead skin cells. Depending on your skin type and sensitivity, you can choose the one that suits you best. (7)
