We love incorporating a good exfoliator into our skin care routine.
Exfoliators increase blood circulation, help activate skin cell turnover, and keep your skin glowing and bright. Buffing two to three times a week is all you need in order to maintain proper skin health.
We’ve got some good options for those of you looking for a new member to join your top shelf.
For body: Harper + Ari Exfoliating Sugar Cubes $22
These are the most conveniently-packaged little cubes of sugary scrub goodness for the bod! Not only are they perfectly portioned out for each use, but they actually work wonders at sloughing off dead skin cells. Made of sugar and moisturizing ingredients, these are a must have for anyone who likes to pamper their skin and prep bod for a fresh tan.
For an at-home microdermabrasion session: Dr. Brandt Microdermabrasion Age Defying Exfoliator $79
Don’t feel like heading to your dermatologist for a microderm sesh? No need to. With the coveted Dr. Brandt Age Defying Exfoliator, you can get the benefits and experience of a facial right at home. The aluminum oxide crystals buff and polish away lingering debris and dead skin to keep your skin looking youthful, healthy, and even. Stubborn dark marks don’t stand a chance against this cleanser.
For sensitive skin: Caudalíe Gentle Buffing Cream $35
Want to start incorporating exfoliators into your skin care regime but are afraid your skin will reject the action of scrubbing? Well, this product is formulated to work magic on those with sensitive skin, and will leave your face feeling smooth and luxe without any irritation afterwards. It’s also a great alternative for those with dryer skin types since the creamy texture works to hydrate the skin as it gently exfoliates.
For acne-prone skin: Fresh Umbrian Clay Mattifying Face Exfoliant $33
Due to the umbrian clay’s high mineral content, this exfoliator works to absorb excess sebum that when left lingering on the skin may cause active breakouts. Impurities and dead skin are quickly removed from the pores, while calming ingredients like chamomile and lavender soothe the skin — a must-have for those who are oily or blemish prone.
For a chemical exfoliation: The Ordinary Lactic Acid Superficial Peeling Formulation $6.79
Chemical peels have been known to deeply exfoliate and rejuvenate the skin, but who has time for two weeks of recovery?! On a more subtle level of chemical exfoliation, facial acids in beauty products are just as effective at exfoliating the skin as the textured cleansers out there. We’re currently living for The Ordinary’s Lactic Acid Formulation, as the lactic acid effectively removes debris and dead skin, all while brightening and re-texturizing the skin’s surface. Plus you really can’t beat the price.
