Importance of Exfoliation
After you cleanse your face, you should "exfoliate." This is very much like the process of peeling an onion or removing tiles from a roof. Exfoliating is necessary for getting the blood flowing into the face, as well as for removing grime and dead skin flakes that form daily. Exfoliating encourages the skin to renew itself at a faster rate and brings new skin cells to the skin surface at a faster rate.
When new skin cells rise to the surface of the skin they die and turn to flakes. If these flakes remain on the surface your skin can look oilier, drier, duller and clog the skin pores. When these flakes are removed the skin looks smoother, cleaner, more radiant and younger.
How to Exfoliate

- Apply an exfoliating cleanser to your skin and scrub it using a sponge or a loofah circularly.
- Take extra care with the sensitive parts of your body.
- Follow up with a good moisturizer
