Exfoliation is the Key

5 Reasons Why You Shouldn’t Skip Exfoliation

Exfoliation may be one of the most overlooked steps in any skincare regime, considering it requires some extra time commitment. But make no mistake – exfoliating is an essential step for achieving and maintaining healthy skin! Skincare professionals have long stressed its significance not just within a facial treatment but also at home. Here are the top reasons why you should never forget to exfoliate!

Bring a Healthy New Glow to Your Complexion

The natural and continuous process of cell regeneration, also known as skin turnover or renewal, is a fundamental component to our overall dermatological health. Skin cells are born from the Stratum Basale (base layer) within the deepest epidermal layer and termed keratinocytes. These young cells are brimming with 80% moisture content.

The skin cell begins its voyage upward, traveling through the layers of the epidermis until it arrives at the Stratum Corneum – located on top. As it shifts from lower to uppermost layer, the nucleus is lost and the cellular structure transforms into a corneocyte; thus gaining thickness and rigidity as moisture content decreases while keratin increases.

The foremost purpose of the skin is protection, and corneocytes are essential for this. They create a robust barrier to ensure that moisture is kept in while external pollutants and irritants are locked out. This process eventually leads us to desquamation, where old surface cells shed off and new ones replace them on top of the epidermis layer. In effect, we can say that our bodies naturally renew themselves – all thanks to these remarkable components!

In the ideal situation, this cell renewal process will continue without us having to intervene. Unfortunately, as we age it begins to slow down and take longer than usual. You may be asking yourself: How long does skin cell turnover usually last? Do I really need an exfoliant if my skin cells regenerate by themselves? On average, here is how quickly your old cells are replaced with new ones:

• Little ones – approximately fourteen days
• Teenagers, on average, require 3-4 weeks
• It takes approximately 30-40 days to reach adulthood (up until age 50), and 45-90 days after the age of fifty.

If you’re looking for a simple way to estimate how long your skin cells take to regenerate, simply add about one week to your age (in years). When cell turnover and renewal are slow, it can result in dull-looking skin with an inconsistent texture as well as other issues like breakouts. Exfoliation is key here since it helps accelerate the process of fresh new cells coming up on top which leads to supple, radiant skin. Consider trying a Pumpkin Enzyme Scrub, its gentle action works wonders by eliminating dead surface cells while moisturizing the face at the same time.

Exfoliating your skin regularly can help break up areas of discoloration, leaving you with a brighter and more radiant complexion.

Melanin, the natural pigment generated by melanocyte cells, is responsible for our hair and skin color as well as eye shade. In response to stimuli like sun exposure, trauma or injury to the skin area in question, hormones and medications – these melanocytes may produce more of this pigment than necessary. Thus resulting in an uneven distribution of too much melanin which causes darkening of that particular spot on your body otherwise known as hyperpigmentation.

For example, Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation is a discoloration of the skin that appears as a shadow following an outbreak – regardless of what has caused it. Sun exposure can only worsen hyperpigmentation, making sunscreen the ideal product for anyone suffering from this issue. Protecting your skin should be priority number one!

Applying sunscreen on a daily basis is the most effective way to prevent excess melanin production and further sun-induced damage. To clear up already darkened areas of skin, exfoliation proves useful by breaking down discolored cells so that they can be easily removed from the surface of your skin. This will result in brighter complexion as well as an overall more even tone!

Regular exfoliation is essential to maintaining clear skin, as it removes any dirt or debris that may be clogging your pores.

Our skin cells are on their own natural cycle, where they regenerate and shed in order to bring fresh cells up to the surface. As we age, this process slows down significantly; however, other factors can also impede the shedding of these dead skin cells too – from our own oil production that’s naturally occurring in our bodies to how we take off skincare and makeup products (which tend not to be done properly). When mixed with oil buildup and trapped debris within follicles, it becomes a major issue for many people all over the world.

If you’re someone who experiences frequent breakouts, exfoliation could be your saving grace. It helps clear away any debris and oils that are clogging up pores – which can lead to congested skin and acne. In particular, try the Gentle Enzyme Exfoliant: it does all the hard work for you by supporting natural exfoliation with enzymes and fruit acids – but without those harsh fragrances or dyes! Unlocking clearer skin is just a few steps away; give this product a go today!

Exfoliation maximizes the absorption of your skincare products, optimizing their effectiveness.

Dull skin cells are thick and can be dry, making it difficult for products to penetrate them. By exfoliating regularly, these surface cells shed away and make it simpler for your skincare products to absorb into the skin quickly and evenly. Not only will this help maximize product efficacy but you’ll also get more uses out of each bottle since you won’t need as much!

Exfoliation Equals Seamless Makeup Application

Rid yourself of dull skin cells for an impeccable complexion and seamless makeup application. Facial Polish is the perfect exfoliant that effectively clears pores, revives tired skin, and removes dead surface cells – resulting in a more uniformed texture with softer feel. When you apply your favorite makeup products on top of this fresh canvas, enjoy natural-looking coverage all day long!
