Why You Need to Exfoliate
Exfoliating your skin goes beyond just washing your face during a shower. It's a deeper cleanse that not only removes dead skin cells but also unclogs your pores, allowing fresh skin cells to emerge. Unlike traditional shower gels that leave some residue, proper exfoliation leaves your skin feeling refreshed and smooth. Interestingly, simply washing your face with a regular washcloth in the shower only cleans about 40% of your skin surface, and sometimes even less of your pores. If you're using a washcloth or loofah, there's also a risk of transferring bacteria back onto your skin, which isn't ideal.
What You Need
Here’s the good news: you don’t need much to start exfoliating effectively. Toss out that old washcloth or loofah—they’re notorious for harboring bacteria. Instead, opt for an antimicrobial brush if you prefer using one. The key tools? A solid cleanser and your own clean hands. Use warm water to prep your face, ideally while you’re already in the shower. Make sure to choose a cleanser tailored to your skin type—scrubs and brushes can be harsh, and remember, quality often correlates with price.

When to Exfoliate
Depending on your skin type, the frequency of exfoliation may vary:
Oily Skin
With oily skin, you can safely exfoliate daily without worrying too much about irritation.
Normal Skin
If you have normal skin, exfoliating every other day is a balanced approach. However, always follow up with a moisturizer, regardless of how often you exfoliate.
Sensitive Skin
For those with sensitive skin, consult your dermatologist before starting any new skincare routine. Our guide on Exfoliating Sensitive Skin might also be helpful.
