“Exfoliating is the process of removing dead skin cells from the surface of your skin using a chemical, granular substance, or exfoliation tool”, according to the Healthline website. By exfoliating your skin before waxing you make the hair removal process hurt less because it will be much easier for the wax to stick to the hair instead of sticking to your skin. Regular exfoliation of your skin is good, but in order to prevent your skin from becoming too sensitive, you should not exfoliate the day of your appointment.
Benefits include:
Reduced Pain: Exfoliation will prevent the wax from sticking to your skin and instead help the wax stick to your hair. Regular exfoliation can also help prevent clogged pores, resulting in fewer breakouts.
Optimized Results: Keeping any dead skin cells away from the wax and hair. Long-term exfoliating can increase collagen production. Collagen is key to glowing, vibrant skin.
Improved Blood Flow: Increasing blood circulation in your skin, helping to break down toxins and fostering new skin cell production.
Regular exfoliation will promote a beautiful, radiant glow that will leave you feeling so confident and proud of your self care to a healthier and gorgeous skin.
Esthetician Recommendation:
