Exfoliation Explained
Regular exfoliation is key to getting + maintaining beautifully clear, radiant skin.
What is Exfoliation?
Exfoliation is the process of removing dead skin cells from the surface of your skin. It keeps our skin from looking rough, flaky and dry, so it's pretty important. And—even better—the actual act of waxing itself exfoliates the skin!
Why is Exfoliation Important?
When we don’t exfoliate, those dead skin cells can lead to an excess of oil, clogged pores, ingrown hairs and breakouts—and no one wants that!
What's the Best Way to Exfoliate?
It depends. There are a lot of ways to get your skin looking and feeling great—and our products are dermatologist-tested and suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin.
Our post-wax aftercare products are packed with a ton of exfoliating ingredients. Here are a few to look for:
Glycolic acid
Jojoba beads
Naturally derived fruit enzymes like papaya + pineapple
Salicylic acid
