Do you use any particular product to exfoliate? How many mornings/nights per week?
Does your exfoliation routine change in the winter months?

Re: How you do exfoliate?

[ Edited ]

My AM routine Monday thru Friday includes an AHA treatment, which helps the dead skin let go, but I'll use a specific exfoliating product two mornings a week (Mon. & Wed.) to get it sloughed off, and have an assortment of products to choose from - Cure Natural Aqua Gel, Skinn DermAppeal, Eminence Organics Strawberry Rhubarb Dermafoliant.  On Friday , or sometimes Saturday, I'll do a peel with either Skinn's ABC Triple Action Peel or Michael Todd's Wild Berry Exfoliating Peel.

I use Paula's Choice 2% daily and her Weekly Resurfacing 10% AHA treatment on Sundays if I need some extra help. (If I've been lazy about the 2% daily, then the weekly gets me back on track.)

I use my microdermabrasion 360 twice or 3 times a week, works great!

I use a muslim cloth to wash my face daily and I use Paula's Choice 2% BHA liquid (currently the CLEAR anti-redness version) daily (morning).

I LOVE Eminence products, but haven't used them in years.  Thanks for the reminder!

For the face: Clarisonic, microderm abrasions 4 times a year, I also alternate between the Olay of Olay 2 step peel and superfine sugar in cleanser.

 

For Body: Fresh Brown Sugar Scrub (a slurge product for me) or I use my homemade brown sugar, olive oil and almond oil scrub. Both smell yummy. Salt scrubs are too hard on my skin.

You're welcome, @RinaRina.  The esthetician I used to go to used the line exclusively in her practice.  I tried a few things at home, but they were just too expensive to keep up with it.  I had forgotten about the SR Dermafoliant and then stumbled on it again a number of months ago.  It was a happy re-discovery.

I use SSC Liquid Exfoliante 3 or 4 times per week. SKINN Dermappeal 1 or 2 times per week. I also like SSC Glycolic Peel which I put on clean-dry skin and leave on overnight. After it dries I can apply other products.
