Exfoliate to Reveal a New You
When many people think of exfoliant, they envision a gritty, harsh, and sometimes painful cream with granules. However, exfoliant has changed dramatically in recent years. Now, consumers can find a gentle exfoliant with soothing extracts and anti-aging qualities. Nevertheless, as more people are realizing that exfoliating is the key to a fresh, blemish-free face, more exfoliants are being developed for sale. It is incredibly difficult to determine which exfoliant is best for one’s particular skin type. But, here is a quick list with a few suggestions for an exfoliant for each skin type.
For those that suffer from dry or thickened skin, the B. Kamins Bamboo and Rice Facial Polisher will be beneficial. This exfoliant is made of milled bamboo and fine rice beads. It gently removes dead skin cells to reveal a fresh, rejuvenated complexion. Because this exfoliant is so effective, it is considered an at-home alternative to microdermabrasion. Also, the Bio-Maple formula that is found in this exfoliant provides deep hydration, leaving skin looking youthful and invigorated.
The S Solutions Crucial Exfoliating Cleanser works best with oily skin. Its glycolic acid formula removes excess oil while restoring skin’s natural moisture balance. By removing debris, dead skin cells, and bacteria from pores, this exfoliant does triple duty. Also, cucumber extract works to sooth irritated skin and reduce any redness. Not only does the glycolic acid eliminate extra oil, it also aids in skin cell renewal, making the Crucial Exfoliating Cleanser one of the best all around skin care products on the market.
For normal skin, the Vie Collection Renewing Exfoliating Cream is a good pick. The silica beads gently remove dead skin cells, while the diatom powder works to renew and refresh skin. Bacteria are removed without over-drying or irritation, and glasswort oil promotes a youthful appearance. After using this exfoliant, consumers can expect to have improved skin texture and a more radiant look.
