While the term ‘face peel’ can conjure up some questionable mental images, they are nothing to fear! Face peels can be transformative when added to your skincare routine and can help with several different problems. Whether it be scarring and pigmentation, hydration, fine lines, skin texture, or acne, face peels are a great way to begin to tackle some of these problems and give yourself beautiful, glowy skin! Eminence Organics has several great face peels available that you can integrate into your skincare regime, and in this blog post, we’re going to walk you through how to use Eminence exfoliating peels to help achieve your best skin.
How To Use Exfoliating Peels: What Are Face Peels?
The face peels that you use at home are used to help improve the appearance of the skin on your face and neck. Exfoliating should be a key step in your skincare routine, and while many people opt for a face scrub to exfoliate their skin, face peels, when used properly, can be much gentler on the skin. Some skin concerns require more skin to be exfoliated, so it’s important to identify your own unique skin needs before choosing a peel. Some peels will exfoliate more than others, based on the problems you are trying to target, and some more intense peels will need to be carried out by a medical professional.
In many at-home peels, you will find ingredients such as lactic acid, which is a great exfoliant that helps to accelerate the removal of dead skin and salicylic acid which helps to reduce pores and smooth skin.
Benefits of Face Peels
There is a myriad of benefits that come from using face peels, especially when they are integrated into your skincare routine and used regularly. One of the most prominent benefits is smoother skin. By exfoliating and removing the top layer of dead skin from your face, you help to smooth its appearance. A few other benefits to using face peels are the evening of skin tone and minimization of fine lines and wrinkles. Regular exfoliation with a face peel will also help to clear and shrink your pores, which in turn can help to prevent breakouts.
Because face peels exfoliate the top layer of your skin to reveal new skin cells underneath, it is a great way to prime your skin for further hydrating treatments, such as face masks or oils.
