Exfoliation should be a key part of any regular skincare routine. Especially as you age! This is because exfoliation gets rid of dead cells and grime that sit on top of your skin, encouraging your cells to renew. As you age your cell renewal naturally slows. Exfoliating regularly can help to stimulate cell production. It can also help clear away dirt and grime. Changes in hormones as you age can also mean your skin produces excess oil, which sits on top of the skin and traps in all the dirt and pollutants. Exfoliating is a gentle process to remove that excess layer and get rid of that dullness.
