I Need Help With Dry Skin and Pigmentation but I Want to Keep it Simple!
Exfoliants contain round granules to exfoliate the skin manually, getting rid of dead skin so your skin is healthier. Some exfoliants will also contain alpha hydroxy acids (AHA) to provide deeper exfoliation, clearing out pores as well.
Exfoliants are often used two to three times a week after cleansing, before your serum and moisturiser is applied.
Granulated exfoliants: contain small round granules in a creamy or gel base.
AHA exfoliants: Will contain granules as well as Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHA). Common AHAs are glycolic, lactic, citric and mandelic.
