Dead cells: how can I gently exfoliate my skin?
Additionally, minor issues can appear, such as blackheads or skin that appears oilier than usual. To avoid this, simply incorporate a fundamental treatment into your beauty routine: facial scrubbing, or exfoliation. Exfoliating your skin once or twice a week helps to deeply cleanse it and eliminate dead cells, thus promoting cell renewal, the basis of a luminous complexion and healthy skin.
What is exfoliation?
Exfoliation is an essential facial treatment for maintaining healthy skin and a radiant complexion. Facial scrubbing is done with an exfoliating treatment that helps free the skin of impurities and dead cells accumulated on the surface of the epidermis and responsible for the appearance of imperfections, blackheads or shiny areas. There are two types of exfoliation: mechanical exfoliation, which is done with a scrub that contains grains that remove impurities and dead cells by rubbing the surface of the skin, and so-called "chemical" exfoliation, carried out with a grain-free exfoliant composed of active ingredients capable of dissolving impurities.
Why do you need to exfoliate?
Our skin regenerates itself constantly, thus leading to the renewal of cells in the different layers of the epidermis. However, dead cells remain attached to the surface of the skin and create a veil that visibly dulls the complexion and does not allow the skin to breathe properly. The skin needs to be freed from the dead cells it accumulates to reveal itself clearer, softer and more luminous. Exfoliation, a true radiance booster, helps refine the skin texture, fade small imperfections that occur when pores are clogged by dead cells and reveal a smoother and more luminous complexion. In addition, allowing for deep cleansing of the skin, exfoliating the skin improves the effectiveness of skincare products by promoting their absorption and the penetration of their active ingredients. Exfoliating your face once or twice a week helps stimulate cell renewal and thus maintain the skin's youthfulness.
Which scrub is right for my skin?
Regardless of your skin type, it's essential to incorporate a weekly facial scrub into your skincare routine to remove dead skin cells and accumulated impurities. However, to avoid damaging your skin, it's equally essential to choose a gentle exfoliating treatment that's tailored to your needs.
Combination to oily skin needs a purifying scrub capable of regulating sebum production to limit shiny areas. The Gentle Exfoliating Emulsion is a deep cleansing, unclogging facial scrub which, through the action of its exfoliating particles, frees the skin of impurities and eliminates dead cells that dull the complexion. Sensitive skin appreciates the delicacy of a grain-free scrub. Soft Peeling is a gentle exfoliating treatment with a melting balm texture that, upon application, fuses with the skin to lift away dead cells, impurities and pollution particles which are eliminated by rinsing. Mature skin, subject to the effects of skin aging, needs a specific exfoliating treatment. The Luminous Exfoliating Cleanser provides double exfoliation and gentle cleansing to reveal the skin's luminosity. This treatment cleanses, hydrates, exfoliates, activates skin renewal and helps reduce the appearance of dark spots linked to skin aging.
Exfoliation is a treatment that shouldn't be overlooked when you want to take care of your skin and maintain a luminous, flawless complexion. By helping the skin get rid of dead cells, pollution particles, and accumulated surface dirt, exfoliation stimulates cell renewal and limits the appearance of imperfections that can result from clogged pores or poorly oxygenated skin. Once a week, take the time to do a facial scrub with an exfoliating treatment suited to your skin type.
