Exfoliation is a crucial process for your skin health but with so many options out there when it comes to it, it can get a little confusing. Let’s get down to the basics. Exfoliation is of two types: Physical and Chemical. While none of these types are necessarily bad for your skin and both are practiced in professional salons, the problem can arise during at-home use. As with all skin care products, it is important to take the following precautions before use, perhaps test on a small area of skin and seek the assistance of a trained beauty therapist. Let’s talk about Chemical exfoliants. While the idea of chemically removing the dead skin cells on the surface of your face might sound scary, it is still a popular choice due to several reasons. The core reason that makes exfoliating serums so ideal is that you are in complete control of the extent of the exfoliation.
How do you control it? The main types of ingredient in any chemical exfoliants are AHAs and BHAs. Each type of AHA or BHA has its own unique set of properties that fit your skin’s requirements perfectly. Several acids like lactic acid have bigger molecules and tend to offer less intense exfoliation, preventing your skin from drying out and hence are always recommended for dry skin. Other acids like glycolic acid are all-rounders that are diversely used in products providing mid-level exfoliation.
Exfoliating serums contain a certain blend of AHAs and BHAs that penetrate the stratum corneum and really work on getting rid of dead skin cells in a controlled, uniform manner. It is also known to trigger your own healing and repair properties of the cells that also tend to decrease hyperpigmentation and play a vital role in healing of any acne scars. Exfoliation is your best friend if your skin is acne-prone, oily with high chances of clogged pores or dry and flaky. We all need the right exfoliation. Discover the right fit for you from our massive range of potent serums that do what they claim.
