~ Exfoliation as part of your skincare regime will help deliver clear, fresh, healthy skin ~
Each year our natural skin’s functions slow down and you may notice that you find visible changes within your skin. For example dull or drier skin, more fine lines and possibly loss of elasticity. These changes take place due to hormone fluctuations, less production of our skin’s own natural lubricant (sebum) and cell turnover slows down. The cooler, dryer months of Winter causes moisture in the skin to evaporate more quickly and we often accelerate this by our lifestyle choices. Hot showers, the use of heating in the home, car and office for example. What’s more, we often don’t exercise as much which provides our skin with nutrients and increases blood and lymph circulation.
What can we do to stimulate healthy skin functions to achieve a glowing complexion?
Regular gentle exfoliation will increase circulation, eliminating dead skin cells that can clog the skin’s surface leaving the skin soft and smooth.
