CLEAR<br />

the way<br />

Clemency Alice highlights our need<br />

to exfoliate – but not overdo it.<br />

Exfoliating your skin is a vital step to your beauty ritual.<br />

However, it is essential that you do not overdo this<br />

(ideally one to two times per week) since this can strip the<br />

skin of its essential protective barrier. Through regular and<br />

correct exfoliating application methods, the skin actives and<br />

nutrients from your serums, essences and moisturisers will<br />

penetrate into the deeper layers of your skin. If you eliminate<br />

exfoliating from your ritual, the dead skin cells will act as a<br />

barrier to those essential ingredients.<br />

Regular exfoliation helps smooth, refine and brighten the<br />

skin and ensures a more flawless, easeful makeup application.<br />
