Did you know this effective skincare product has more uses? Let's take a deeper look at one of our bestselling face products.
What are the benefits of using an Exfoliating Face Mask?
Exfoliating removes dead skin cells from the surface of the skin which also helps to unclog pores and prevent breakouts. It gives your skin a circulation boost and aids in lymphatic flow and drainage. It can also help with product absorption, to remove dead skin cells on the surface of the skin which could prevent serums and moisturisers from penetrating the skin optimally.
How often should I exfoliate?
That depends on your skin type. If you exfoliate too much, you risk damaging the skin barrier. For ourExfoliating Face Mask, as a general guideline, we would recommend the following:
- Sensitive skin: Once a week
- Dry skin: 1 - 2 times a week
- Normal skin: Twice a week
- Oily skin: 2- 3 times a week
