Why your skin needs Exfoliation
It is a known fact that skin naturally sheds dead skin cells every 30 days or so. And new skin cells form the top layers of your skin. When the old dead cells are not properly shed off, skin can have numerous dry patches and may result in a flaky skin.
Exfoliation unleashes the power of your skincare routine. It can help speed up the process of shedding dead skin cells by removing dead skin cells from the surface of your skin.
