What exfoliant can I use with retinol?

If using retinol, opt for a gentle exfoliant like lactic acid, mandelic acid, or enzyme-based exfoliants, and avoid harsh scrubs or high-strength acids. Use exfoliants on alternate nights to prevent irritation and always follow with hydration and SPF.

When to use exfoliant in a skincare routine?

Use an exfoliant after cleansing and before serums or moisturizer. If using a chemical exfoliant, apply it directly to dry skin. Physical exfoliants (scrubs) should be massaged gently onto damp skin, then rinsed off before continuing with your routine.

Which exfoliant is best for sensitive skin?

For sensitive skin, choose a gentle exfoliant like lactic acid, mandelic acid, PHA (polyhydroxy acids), or enzyme exfoliants. Avoid harsh scrubs or high concentrations of AHAs/BHAs, and exfoliate only 1-2 times per week to prevent irritation.

When to exfoliate my face?

Exfoliate 2-3 times per week for normal skin, while sensitive skin should stick to once per week. Exfoliation is best done at night to allow skin to recover, and always follow with moisturizer and SPF the next morning.
