All skin needs a little exfoliation. Otherwise dead cells sitting on top of your skin can cause it to look dull and uneven and may even lead to acne. Further, dead cells create a barrier on top of your skin, so your product won't be able to penetrate to get to where it needs to go! Exfoliate your face and body regularly to maintain healthy, glowing skin.
