9 Exfoliating Pads That'll Make Dull Skin Glow AgainSwipe away dead skin to reveal a glowing complexion |
Considering how many skin issues there are — fine lines, acne, dullness, etc. — it's hard to believe there's actually one treatment that can help them all: exfoliation. We're not talking about scrubs and other forms of manual exfoliation, which can sometimes be too harsh and actually exacerbate the problem. We're talking about chemical exfoliation that penetrates the skin to help heal it from the inside out.
If you're not a skin care junkie, chemical exfoliation can seem pretty scary. You probably think back to movie scenes where women are left with skin that is flaking and peeling all over the place. While there are some high-potency peels that may have that effect, many chemical exfoliants — like those found in exfoliating pads — are gentle enough to use as often as twice a day.
Exfoliating pads typically contain a mild concentration of acids, like glycolic or lactic, to help slough off dead skin cells and address issues like breakouts and fine lines, without fear of irritation. The acids are often combined with brightening vitamin C, hydrating hyaluronic acid and other actives that provide a multitude of skin benefits.
Read on for 9 exfoliating pads to add to your beauty routine for bright, glowing skin.
