Exfoliation and removal of dead skin is a skin care method that everyone does regularly. It would be ugly to have layers of old dead skin on your face, and it is important to exfoliate correctly. So, how do you use exfoliating cream? Let’s take a look together.

How to use exfoliating cream

First clean your face with facial cleanser, then wipe off the water drops on your face with a towel. Squeeze an appropriate amount of exfoliating cream on the palm of your hand, add one or two drops of warm water, and apply it on your face a little bit with your other hand. You can apply it a little thicker on the T-zone and not on the cheeks. Use both hands to start rubbing gently for two or three minutes to rub out the dirt. Finally, wash off the dirt with warm water and then apply moisturizer.

How often should you use exfoliating cream?

This mainly depends on the metabolic rate of waste keratin. Oily skin produces more oil in the T-zone and the keratin is metabolized faster, so you need to use exfoliating cream more frequently.
