Exfoliate w/ NOVACleanse by Sur

As they say, thereβs a 100 ways to βskinβ a cat, the same thing goes when it comes to exfoliating your skin. There are 3 types of exfoliation: Physical, Mechanical and Chemical! What type of exfoliator are you? π€
I like to exfoliate at night to help get off all the layers of sunscreen, sweat and debris and to prep my skin to receive my nighttime elixirs! Sometimes I do all 3 at the same time!! ππΎββοΈπ§πΎββοΈπ€·πΎββοΈ (I use an exfoliating cleanser that contains an AHA + a mechanical exfoliation tool).

Chemical:
- AHA (Alpha Hydroxy Acid) * All skin types benefit

- BHA (Beta-Hydroxy Acid) *Acne prone skin / overly active oil production

π Exfoliating at least 2-3 times a week can be so beneficial when it comes to maintaining a healthy glow as it helps prevent clogged pores, resulting in fewer breakouts.
π Long-term exfoliating can increase collagen production.
π Collagen is key to glowing, vibrant skin. The protein also promotes skin elasticity, minimizing the appearance of fine lines and related sagging.
π Lastly, giving your skin a fresh canvas, allows your products to penetrate and help increase effectiveness of your targeted treatments.
