¿Did you know...
There are many many reasons to exfoliate your skin regularly to keep it beautiful and most of all healthy?
Well, we hope to give you some lights about it.
But, what is exfoliation?
Exfoliate, according to the Real Academia Española is «divide something in sheets or scales» or «eliminate dead cells from the skin». There it is!
Al exfoliar, estás eliminando la primera capa de la piel. Esta capa que funcionó como la barrera natural del cuerpo contra las agresiones del medio ambiente y, por ende, la que ha sufrido del maltrato de:
- UV rays
- pollution
- chemicals in the atmosphere and the products we use daily
I said worked because this layer of the skin is already dull, old, dry, swell and/or with blemishes. Do you think it is still fulfilling its purpose?
La realidad es que no. Pero, la buena noticia es que podemos ayudar a nuestro cuerpo a regenerar su capa protectora si la eliminamos exfoliando nuestra piel, dando espacio para que crezcan nuevas células.
