Interrupt exfoliation if you experience sunburn, rash or an open cut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Normal skin<\/strong> and anti-aging issues<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>People with normal skin should start by exfoliating one to three times a week. The frequency also depends on the product, its PH and acid concentration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Dry, sensitive skin<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For dry or sensitive skin, exfoliating twice a week is the maximum frequency. You might consider exfoliating only once a week or even every two weeks if you use products likely to cause dryness and irritation, such as retinoids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Rosacea-prone skin<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have rosacea, I advise you to avoid exfoliation with AHAs (glycolic acid\/lactic acid) to avoid further redness, irritation or stinging. Exfoliation with BHA at 1% is possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Combination skin<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>People with combination skin can generally exfoliate their face twice a week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Oily skin<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have oily skin, you can probably exfoliate three or four times a week with<a href=\"https:\/\/www.beautydecoded.com\/en\/this-lotion-sold-every-6-seconds-is-very-effective-against-blemishes\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"17526\">salicylic acid<\/a> which is limited to 2% in cosmetics.  Note that this recommendation applies to salicylic acid and not to glycolic acid and lactic acid, which may be more irritating than salicylic acid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The benefits of facial exfoliation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Exfoliation helps eliminate dead cells<\/strong>This helps skin appear softer, smoother and more radiant, while improving the overall appearance of tone and texture. By removing these dead cells, exfoliation also helps prevent clogged pores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"575\" src=\"https:\/\/www.beautydecoded.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Exfoliation-2-1024x575.jpg\" alt=\"azelaic acid exfoliation\" class=\"wp-image-2875\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.beautydecoded.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Exfoliation-2-1024x575.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.beautydecoded.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Exfoliation-2-600x337.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.beautydecoded.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Exfoliation-2-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.beautydecoded.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Exfoliation-2-768x431.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.beautydecoded.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Exfoliation-2-1536x862.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.beautydecoded.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Exfoliation-2-260x146.jpg 260w, https:\/\/www.beautydecoded.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Exfoliation-2-50x28.jpg 50w, https:\/\/www.beautydecoded.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Exfoliation-2-134x75.jpg 134w, https:\/\/www.beautydecoded.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Exfoliation-2.jpg 1924w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>For those prone to blemishes and pimples, they should favor the use of a chemically formulated exfoliant.\u00a0<strong>with salicylic acid<\/strong>\u00a0which will help reduce the amount of bacteria present on the skin while exfoliating and clearing clogged pores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"EXFOLIATE YOUR SKIN LIKE A PRO!
