Designed to gently buff away dull, dead skin cells, these products help unveil a radiant glow while ensuring your skincare products penetrate more deeply for enhanced effectiveness.
A great facial exfoliator not only renews your complexion but also leaves it feeling nourished and hydrated. There are two main types of exfoliators: physical and chemical. Physical exfoliators, often use natural ingredients such as bamboo or walnut shell to gently polish the skin and lift away surface debris.
Chemical exfoliators, such as those offered by Clarins, are enriched with exfoliating acids like glycolic, salicylic, or lactic acid. These dissolve dead skin cells and promote a smoother, more even complexion. Some exfoliators even combine physical and chemical techniques for advanced skin renewal, offering the best of both worlds.
Most exfoliators are best used 2–3 times a week, especially those with active ingredients. Use them after cleansing to remove lingering dead skin and debris. For chemical exfoliators, it’s recommended to apply them at night, as they can increase your skin’s sensitivity to the sun.
