Do You Exfoliate?

Exfoliation removes dead skin cells and younger, smoother skin, based on what I read. I am a bit wary because I fear it may be harsh on the skin but since Body Shop is a trusted beauty brand, I went for it. It says do it twice a week, but I think I do it once a month (lol). What about you, do you make it a part of your beauty or self care regimen?

Wow really. You have good skin my friend. But I feel you dont need it as much as you are still young.

@yoalldudes yes many people say that to me too, but I think I like to do this, because it has become my habit

Do it once a week.. Yes doing it regularly like thrice a week can harm your skin.. Is that the body shop brand? How much did it cost?

Thanks for the advice. I kind of forgot but around $30 I think. But it lasts long so worth it, I think.

I think once a month is good, especially for someone young. After 35, I would do it once a week. But never twice a week.

That sounds good. We shouldnt do too much. A fellow worker got her face burnt due to wrong application.

That is also the frequency of me doing it - sometimes not on a regular basis due to busy schedule.

I've used Body Shop's exfoliating products and they seem okay. I exfoliate once or twice a week, depending on the product/brand that I'm using. I just make sure to use brands that use natural organic exfoliants and not microbeads that pollute our water system.

That is really good to hear that we're using Body Shop products. I think organic is better than synthetic.

I exfoliate but not too often since my skin reacts

Yes I do at least once a month. I use St Ives Peach Scrub and it works very well.
