Exfoliation!! is an important skincare practice because it helps keep your skin soft, removes dead skin cells and clears out your pores.
Our skin cells naturally shed every month or so. When this happens, it can cause a buildup of skin cells on the surface potentially resulting in dull/dry skin and congested pores.
Exfoliation helps speed up this process by mechanically removing dead skin cells from the surface of your skin. As a result, your skin can absorb skincare products more efficiently, skin texture improves, congested pores clear out, collagen production is boosted and your skin tone/complexion may even out.
*It is especially important to exfoliate when using tallow because it naturally boosts the skin's cell turnover rate which can lead to a buildup of dead skin cells!
It is recommended that one should exfoliate around 2-3 times per week.
Harsh exfoliation (acids and scrubs) can harm the skin's barrier and dry the skin, so it is best to stick with gentle exfoliants.
