To correctly apply facial exfoliant, start by cleansing your face with a cleanser suitable for your skin type. Rinse with warm water and pat dry with a clean towel.
Next, take an appropriate amount of exfoliant with a spatula and mix it in a small bowl or in the palm of your hand with clean water or floral water until it forms a paste.
Apply this exfoliating paste to your face, avoiding the eye and lip area. Begin with gentle circular motions across your entire face, focusing on areas with rougher or problematic skin, such as the forehead, nose, and chin. Avoid applying the exfoliant to irritated or open-wound skin.
After massaging the exfoliant into your skin for about 1-2 minutes, using gentle circular motions and ensuring you've covered your entire face and neck, avoiding the eye area, rinse the exfoliant off your face with warm water. You can use a soft cloth or sponge to help remove the exfoliant.
The solid exfoliant particles resulting from the application should be collected and disposed of along with solid waste.
After exfoliation, apply a moisturizer suitable for your skin type to soften and hydrate the skin. This step is crucial to maintain the skin's hydration balance after exfoliation.
It is recommended to exfoliate your skin 1-2 times a week, depending on your skin's needs. Avoid excessive exfoliation or applying too much pressure, as this can irritate or damage the skin.
