Choosing The Right Exfoliation For Healthy Skin In The Summer

During the summer our skin works overtime to keep us hydrated and protected by increasing the amount of sebum or oils in order to maintain hydration within our skin and shield it from external irritants. We also use more sunscreen that needs to be well removed each day if not, it can block our pores and cause a cascade of factors that can worsen the texture of our skin leading to comedones and acne. Skin congestion can also be affected by sun exposure and environmental irritants that can cause our skin cells to multiply faster to repair the damage.

One of the simplest and easiest ways to decongest and rejuvenate our skin is through exfoliation. Exfoliating removes the most superficial layer of dead skin to reveal brighter and radiant skin.  When choosing an exfoliant, it is best to select a physical exfoliant to avoid sensitizing your skin.
