At any time, the skin of our body is regenerating itself: the cells die and are replaced by brand new cells. Day after day, minute after minute, our epidermis is constantly renewing itself. This process would be perfect if the dead cells did not stick to the surface of the epidermis. To get rid of it, our skin needs a little help: an "exfoliation" or a "scrub", that is to say a treatment which consists in eliminating by friction the dead cells on the surface of the skin. the epidermis.
Before starting the exfoliation of the face, be sure to remove the dead cells on the surface of the epidermis and especially not to damage your skin.
• Moisten your face: this will make friction less aggressive.
• Place a dab of exfoliating product on your fingertips and start the facial treatment. Be careful to gently rub your skin without insisting, making small, light circular motions on the area you want to treat and avoiding the delicate area around the eye. Favor the T zone (nose, forehead, chin): it is the most oily.
• Be brief: the treatment should not last too long, so as not to leave the skin.
• Rinse preferably with cold water, to tighten the pores .
• Moisturize and nourish after the facial scrub is complete, don't stop there: it's only part of the routine for clear, beautiful skin. Your epidermis is momentarily weakened, because it lacks its natural protective barrier: the hydrolipidic film, one of the functions of which is to maintain a good level of hydration in the skin, thus helping to provide it with softness and suppleness. Since you have just removed this protective film, take care of your skin with a moisturizer for the face, whatever your skin type: you will help your epidermis to regain softness and elasticity.
