Twice a week. Always.

I exfoliate once a week (or sometimes more.) I like to use sugar to exfoliate, it’s warming and makes my skin feel really smooth.

I exfoliate at least 2 times a week with my Kiehl’s Brightening Surface Exfoliator which I think is quite mild, but does wonders for my pores, esp those around my nose.

Usually I do it once every two weeks, because my skin is very sencitive and if I do it often like once or twice a week I appear pimples.

Jyoan: that’s nice. Exfoliating regularly really makes a great difference in how skin looks and feels
Dao: I often use sugar too. I prefer making my own exfoliant that buying it.
Vonvon: sounds like a nice product, I’m glad it works so well for you
Anastacia: I’m sorry to hear that. But I agree, sensitive skin shouldn’t be exfoliated often, or will react badly.
I try for at least once a week.

Once, twice or three times weekly depending on when I remember.

i exfoliate twice a week… with the kind of environment we have it’s definitely a must to exfoliate

fabulessbeauty: me too, my skin looks so much better when I do that
Anastasia: I used to forget all the time when I first started exfoliating. But if you forget maybe it’s cos your skin already looks good and doesn’t need it
Ayn: where do you live? Is the weather hot and humid there? If it is, exfoliating a bit more is a good idea
Personally , I think exfoliating is overrated, I feel it’s much more suitable for oily or acne-prone skin …I have combo skin so I exfoliate every two weeks in Summer only , in Winter I prefer hydrating my very dry skin with deep hydrating masks ..
Meshmesha, I think it depends on your skin type. Skin can exfoliate on its own, but some conditions, like overproduction of sebum can impair that, in which case some help is needed.
