Common conclusions

You should exfoliate your face because it can help unclog pores, because an exfoliation is a treatment that cleanses the skin and removes dead cells. You should try Pixi® skintreats Glow Tonic, Paula's Choice SKIN PERFECTING 2% BHA Liquid, THE ORDINARY Glycolic Acid 7% Toning Solution, etc. You could exfoliate two to three times per week, as long as your skin can handle it.

You may need to exfoliate your face because the more you remove the destroyed surface cells, the more deep spots or visible gouges are removed from the skin and fresh healthy skin cells are formed. With less scarring, the effect is more even-toned skin. After exfoliating, you should dry the area and apply a moisturizer. It is possible to exfoliate as much as every three days.

Your skin may look dull because you are not exfoliating it so it might be time to slough off dead skin cells. You will extract damaged, dry skin cells from your skin's surface by exfoliating with the correct exfoliator. Sloughing dead skin cells off the surface of your skin a few times a week can help your skin appear brighter.You should also know that exfoliator goes before both toner and essence

For dry or brittle skin, exfoliation is essential, but you should stop mechanical exfoliation on dry skin due to the drying process, which can lead to micro-tears.

Peeling can be a sign of over-exfoliation. You should avoid exfoliation, because exfoliating peeling skin can also lead to irritation, infection and even scarring.
