Why Chemical Exfoliants are Better Than Scrubs "Removing built up dead skin with a chemical exfoliant (like AHA or BHA) is a total game changer for obtaining healthier-looking skin. These products work much differently than gritty scrubs or stiff cleansing brushes that scratch and compromise skin’s barrier. Chemical exfoliants work in a completely non-abrasive way by ungluing the bonds of dead skin so it can shed properly. By sloughing off that built-up layer, your skin’s healthy glow can take center stage, plus you’ll remedy other issues like pore congestion and rough texture. The cherry on top? Chemical exfoliants can increase skin’s hydration—talk about a win-win situation!" – Director of Applied Research & Education @desireestordahl . . . . . . . #PaulasChoice #SkinCare #SkinCareEssentials #SkinCareRoutine #Exfoliants
