There Is Such a Thing as Too Much Exfoliation

And the results aren't good

If your skin is normal...
If your skin is normal... You can really take your pick between chemical or physical exfoliation, says Gohara, though she recommends a little bit of both. She suggests using a retinoid nightly; not only is it an effective exfoliator, but it also packs a hefty anti-aging punch. Our pick: Differin Gel, $11.29. If you want a little extra boost, add an electric cleansing brush, like Mary Kay Skinvigorate Cleansing Brush, $50, into the mix a few times per week, she adds. Pair it with your normal cleanser and let it do the work for you, gently buffing off dead skin cells.
