Exfoliation can make skin look smoother, brighter and more refined—but it is also one of the easiest steps in a routine to overdo.
The purpose of exfoliation is to help remove accumulated surface cells and buildup. Appropriate exfoliation can help improve the visible appearance of texture, radiance and congestion.
Exfoliating is not the same as cleansing
Cleansing removes makeup, oil and everyday impurities. Exfoliation addresses accumulated surface cells and texture. That is why REGENYXIA has both a Gentle Barrier Cleanser and an Exfoliating Renewal Cleanser; skin does not necessarily need the same cleanser every day.
What about masques?
A clarifying masque can provide a targeted step for people concerned with excess surface oil, congestion and visible pores. REGENYXIA Clarifying Masque can be incorporated periodically rather than treated like another daily cleanser.
Can you exfoliate too much?
Yes. Frequency depends on the product, skin type and other active ingredients in the routine. The goal is smoother-looking skin without unnecessarily compromising comfort. Adjust exfoliation and retinol use according to skin tolerance.
