Quick Answers
What types of exfoliators are available?
Exfoliators come in physical forms (scrubs, brushes) that manually buff away dead skin, and chemical forms (AHAs, BHAs) that dissolve the bonds between dead skin cells for a gentler, more even exfoliation.
How often should I use an exfoliator?
Most skin types benefit from exfoliating 2–3 times per week. If you have sensitive skin, start with once a week and increase gradually. Over-exfoliating can lead to redness, irritation and a compromised skin barrier.
What is the difference between AHA and BHA exfoliators?
AHAs (alpha hydroxy acids) like glycolic and lactic acid work on the skin's surface to improve texture and radiance. BHAs (beta hydroxy acids) like salicylic acid penetrate into the pore lining, making them ideal for oily, acne-prone or congested skin.
Can I use an exfoliator if I have sensitive skin?
Yes, but choose a gentle formula. Enzyme-based or lactic acid exfoliators tend to be the most tolerable for sensitive skin types. Always patch test first and avoid exfoliating over active breakouts or irritated skin.
What exfoliator brands do you stock?
