Beauty Tip - Exfoliate

Advice on skin, makeup, and everyday beauty

Our Beauty Expert, Charmaine Gooden, shares some beauty tips and tricks

I exfoliate all over every day because I now realize that it makes the biggest difference in how my skin looks. For my face I use a dry facecloth before showering or a grainy face scrub with small granules. On my body I use a loofah sponge or synthetic glove. I also use an AHA (alpha hydroxy acid) moisturizer to slough off dry skin.

Why exfoliate? Young skin naturally replaces old cells with fresh new ones every 15 – 20 days while older skin requires roughly 25 – 35 day for the same process.  Sloughing off dead, dull surface cells exposes new, younger-looking smooth skin that glows.
