Exfoliator

Exfoliation is the key step to clearing dead skin and brightening your complexion especially when using SkinCeuticals products. These formulas help lift away the build-up that can block pores and leave skin dull or uneven. Regular exfoliation also helps your serums and creams work better by giving them a clear path to absorb. SkinCeuticals exfoliators include gentle acids and natural enzymes to smooth your skin without harsh scrubbing

How often should I exfoliate my face?

How often you exfoliate depends on your skin type and the product you’re using. Most people benefit from exfoliating two to three times a week. If your skin is dry or sensitive, once a week may be enough.

What’s the difference between physical and chemical exfoliators?

Physical exfoliators use small grains or particles to scrub away dead skin cells. They give instant smoothness but can be too harsh for sensitive skin. Chemical exfoliators use acids like glycolic or lactic acid to dissolve the bonds that hold dead skin cells together. SkinCeuticals exfoliators focus on chemical exfoliation using safe levels of AHAs or enzymes to smooth and brighten the skin. They’re effective without the irritation that can come from physical scrubs.

Can exfoliating help with acne and blackheads?

Yes, exfoliating can help reduce acne and blackheads by removing dead skin cells and clearing out blocked pores. Build-up in your pores can trap oil and bacteria, leading to spots and breakouts.
