Why It's Important to Exfoliate

Exfoliating your skin is an important step in your skin care routine that is often the most overlooked in the process. It's important
to exfoliate because your skin develops new skin cells every 2-4 weeks, and then the dead skin cells on top will need to slough off in order to allow the newer skin cells to flourish and breathe. If this process is done perfectly, you will have a constant rotation of new skin cells always on the top layer of your skin, providing you with a young and heathly complexion.

However most of the time, these dead skin cells do not get sloughed off and end up clogging your pores and inhibiting the new skin cells from doing their job. Avoid this nastiness by exfoliating once a week to keep your skin healthy.

How to exfoliate:

Dampen your skin
Put some of the exfoliating cream on your fingertips, and gently massage your face in small, circular motions
Rinse skin thoroughly
Follow with a moisturizer
