To renew the skin in depth we will have to take into account the importance of exfoliation.
If for many people the basis of a good facial and corporal hygiene is the use of soapy substances, or of a cleansing milk and a tonic, these should begin to take into account the great importance of a good exfoliation that regenerates and prepares the skin for the application of a specific cosmetic product such as a moisturizer or a serum.
And why stress in this exfoliation? Very easy, because a bunch of dead cells create a barrier on our skin and, no matter how much you apply a serum and a cream, without having exfoliated the skin previously, it is to throw away the product and discard money, as simple as that. But let's go by steps, and explain deeply why the importance of exfoliating the skin.
On the skin accumulate remains of dead cells that have already fulfilled their work of nutrition and oxygenation, as well as protect against external factors: sun, wind... Along with these dead cells, are also traces of environmental dirt, remains of sweat and sometimes makeup that has not been removed properly.
When a peel, exfoliation or scrub is performed.
- Immediately the skin is smoother, brighter and smoother.
- The color is revived thanks to the circulatory stimulation and acquires a very healthy tone.
- The skin is oxygenated and helps eliminate small wrinkles and imperfections.
- Prevents the signs of premature aging.
- By reducing part of the stratum corneum (the superficial layer of the skin, which we palpate) and exerting a deep hygiene of the skin, the cosmetic products penetrate better.
- The skin tans evenly.
There are many types of exfoliants
- Mechanical exfoliants, which contain small granules: as marine salts, apricot kernel powder, coconut, bamboo particles ...
- E exfoliates chemicals such as glycolic acid, based on cane sugar and AHAs renewing skin thoroughly removing spots and blemishes, scars or acne.
- Exfoliants enzyme with fruity pineapple or papaya enzymes which are anti-inflammatory and respect the natural pH, ideal for sensitive skin. Some can be found in the form of shower gel, sea salt with oil, or even in the form of soap with botanical particles. There is an endless amount of exfoliating cosmetics. Try them and do not forget to hydrate the skin afterward with a lotion, cream or an oil.
