Myths and truths about exfoliation
Exfoliation is a deep cleaning process that consists of removing dead cells and impurities that accumulate on the surface of the skin and results in a stimulus for cell renewal, unclogs pores and increases the absorption of actives present in cosmetics that are used in the period between one exfoliation and another.
The expected result is a soft, shiny and uniform skin, but for that it is necessary to have some care and a cleaning routine suitable for each type of skin, in addition to using products that maintain the balance, the PH and the integrity of the skin barrier, since if done in the wrong way, exfoliation can harm the skin.
Know myths and truths about exfoliation:
Myth: It is not indicated to exfoliate the skin in the cold
In the colder seasons, the skin’s oiliness decreases and it becomes drier, so it is said that if you exfoliate your face it will become even more dry, however, this is not true, impurities and pore obstruction continue to happen even in the cold , so it is not necessary to avoid exfoliation, although it is recommended to look for products with natural actives that propose a smoother exfoliation.
Myth: You should exfoliate your skin twice a week
There is no correct amount to do deep cleaning, the interval will depend on the skin type and must be guided by a dermatologist. In general, more oily skins can include plundering in the routine of skincare at least twice a week, since the driest and most sensitive skins, once every 15 days is enough.
Truth: Exfoliation prevents ingrown hairs
With skin free of impurities and oiliness controlled, the hair follicle, responsible for hair growth, is released without problems, so a cleaner skin reduces the chance of ingrown hair.
