One of the most basic steps to ensuring great skin is exfoliating. Not everyone exfoliates their skin but it’s actually necessary. Over time, various impurities and dead skin cells clump up on our skin which not only block our pores but also cause acne and other skin ailments. No one wants to experience that thus it’s recommended to cleanse your skin at least once a week.

While exfoliating is great for your skin, doing it consistently is really a big no-no. Each time you exfoliate, you clear out the old layer of skin for a new one. This means the new layer is more sensitive and can be easily damaged if you’re not careful. If you’re eager to step outside after you’ve done exfoliating, you’ll want to think twice. Exposing your skin as soon after cleansing can cause a lot of damage.

While there are a lot of concerns after exfoliating, there are a lot of solutions to make sure they don’t happen. In order for you to get better skin, here are some of the post-exfoliating skin care tips you’ll have to follow:

• You can make use of a toner after exfoliating. Toners aid in getting rid of any residue oil or dirt for an overall cleansing. This isn’t really necessary but going through this tip will aid in an overall exfoliation of your skin.
• Once you’ve finished exfoliating, don’t hold back on using a moisturizer. It’s best to apply the moisturizer up to twice a day to make sure your skin is not dry. Exfoliation tends to become flaky and even wrinkly in the long run.
• Coconut Oil can be used as an antibacterial application. Not only is it natural but coconut oil aids in keeping your skin hydrated while also keeping the bacteria off.
• Apply a very potent sunscreen. Your skin is still so new thus it hasn’t gotten the necessary guard against the damaging UV rays. You’ll want to skip the daily vitamin D or choose to lather yourself in some sunscreen.

With these tips, you’re not only ensuring young beautiful skin but also making sure that you’re keeping your skin healthy.
