I have
Normal Skin
Normal skin can be characterised by an
oily t-zone and even some dryness and sensitivity
in some areas. Although you may feel like you
don’t have any particular concerns, you still need
to exfoliate your skin to ensure it doesn’t
develop congestion or dullness.
The REN Gentle Exfoliating Cleanser is
great as it can be used daily to keep on top of
good skin hygiene, but is powerful enough to
leave you with a brighter and
more even complexion.
I have
Sensitive Skin
If you have sensitive skin, chances are that
you are nervous to try any form of exfoliating
scrub for fear of it causing a reaction,
but Caudalie’s Gentle Buffing Cream will leave
your skin soft and super smooth.
Made with 97% natural ingredients including
Jojoba Beads, Acacia Honey and Grape Oil,
the gentle cream feels nourishing on the skin,
as it delicately buffs away dead skin cells
and dry areas.
I have
Acne-Prone Skin
If you have blemish-prone skin, physical
exfoliants can further irritate it and cause
more breakouts. Instead, opt for chemical-based
ones that will help keep your skin a lot more
stable and comfortable.
The MÁDARA Brightening AHA Peel Mask is
perfect for this skin type as it contains
Lactic Acid to decongest the skin, as well as
Elderflower to soothe and protect, so any sign
of redness and inflammation is reduced.
I have
Dry Skin
Dry skin can be a buildup of dead skin cells,
oil and impurities that need to be exfoliated
away so your skin can begin to repair itself.
The Origins Never a Dull Moment Exfoliant
is infused with crushed Papaya to slough
away dead skin cells, while its conditioning
formula helps to rehydrate and keep
skin smooth and healthy.
One of the most important steps in your skincare routine for a gorgeous
complexion is exfoliation. It helps to clear out impurities, remove dead skin cells
and refine the pores for a brighter and more even finish.
Finding the right exfoliant for your skin type however is super important to help
make sure your skin stays balanced. We have put together our exclusive guide
to help you find the right one for you, and give you the confidence to go
barefaced and show off your natural beauty.
EXFOLIATING THE SKIN: WHY?
If your complexion looks a little dull or
lacklustre, it can be a combination of
anything from poor diet and lack of sleep,
to stress and hormones. However, did you
know that your skincare, or rather the lack of it,
can cause a dulling complexion too?
Exfoliation is key to maintaining a healthy
glow that makes your skin radiate.
It’s an essential step in removing dead
skin cells to prevent pores from becoming
blocked and spots forming. Without it,
dead cells build up on the surface, trap oil
and sebum, and cause a vicious cycle of
blemishes, dullness and uneven skin tone.
EXFOLIATING THE SKIN: YOUR SKIN TYPE
When it comes to exfoliating the skin,
it really isn’t a one rule fits all approach.
Depending on your skin type and condition,
you need to take precautionary measures
to choose the right products that will
give you the best results.
