It&#8217;s an important step in any skincare routine, but it&#8217;s important not to overdo it.

Removing natural oils and moisture can make your skin more vulnerable to environmental factors such as sun, wind and pollutants. These factors accelerate the ageing process and lead to premature skin ageing.<\/p>\n<p>You may notice signs of excessive exfoliation on your skin, such as irritation and redness.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text]If your skin is constantly irritated, this may be a sign that it is protesting against too much exfoliation.
