The key to successful exfoliation lies in balance
Over-exfoliating can strip the skin of its natural oils, disrupt its barrier, and cause redness or sensitivity. On the other hand, insufficient exfoliation may lead to buildup, breakouts, and a lack of radiance.
Exfoliation not only improves texture and clarity but also enhances the absorption of moisturizers, serums, and treatments applied afterward. It stimulates cell turnover, contributing to a smoother and healthier appearance over time.
Alpeor’s skin experts recommend exfoliating once or twice a week, depending on skin sensitivity. For sensitive skin, ultra-gentle exfoliants with soft particles are preferable. Normal to oily skin may tolerate more frequent or deeper exfoliation, but always with attention to the skin’s response.
