About 13 tips for facial exfoliating

Yesterday I wrote an article on how to exfoliate,suggest that you can take a look at and may have help.Today I’ll sum up some exfoliating details,as follows:

1. Clean the face thoroughly with facial cleanser before exfoliating.In addition,suggest you use the warm water.

2. We know that exfoliating is good for our skin,but it’ll cause the skin to dry out so don’t over exfoliate,especially in summer or in very sunny climates which is easy to make skin becomes sensitive.In general,recommend that neutral skin once a week;oily skin once 3-4 days;dry skin once two weeks and sensitive skin once a month(Of course,this is only areference).

3. Apply a moisturizer containing alpha or beta hydroxy acids which will continue the exfoliating process,because acids cause additional dead skin cells to slough off.

4. Sensitive skin had better use enzyme-based facial exfoliators while beta-hydroxy exfoliators is best for acne-prone skin.Oily skin should choose an exfoliating product with alpha-hydroxy acid.

5. The best time to exfoliate controls in about 2 minutes to avoid the epidermal cells become thinner.

6. When rub your face with the loofah or sponge,you are sure to avoid scrubbing skin around the eyes,because the skin there is thin and particularly sensitive.

7. Rinse with warm water after exfoliation(don’t use too hot water which is harsh on your skin)

8. Don’t press hard facial when you use exfoliating products,while gently pressure is required.

9. You’d better hydrate your skin at once after exfoliation.Have to say that moisturizers are most effective after dead surface cells have been whisked away.

10. If you exfoliate in the daytime,you must wear sunscreen with SPF 30 before going out(Beacuse freshly exfoliated skin is very easy to sun damage).

11. Don’t use any exfoliator that contains pumice.To know that many exfoliating cleansers contain up to 25 percent pumice which should never be used on the face so as not to damage your skin.

12. Don’t use body scrubs on your face which is too rough.

13. If your skin have acne,inflammation and you are ready go out before,don’t exfoliate.

Warnings

Skin should be pink and have slight tingling sensation after using your exfoliating product.If your skin appear peeling red,burning, then you should consider replacing a gentler product.
