Exfoliants remove dead cells and impurities from your skin. Exfoliating scrubs with beads or ingredients from nature have become common and may be used once a week to daily, depending on their formulation. In the winter, regular exfoliation is necessary, and as we grow older, it is recommended to exfoliate more often. The only problem is that this can exacerbate dry skin if not followed up with moisturizer. That’s why you need a hydrating moisturizer for daily use that can replenish the moisture in the skin and nourish the new layer of skin. If dryness continues, consider exfoliating less often or switching to a gentler product.
