Dull Complexions

Revive Dull-Looking Complexions

A dull complexion is caused by a build-up of dead skin cells that make a face look gray. By the age of 30, our skin's ability to regenerate itself slows dramatically. Exfoliating increases the process of cell turnover. If you are looking for immediate results to get rid of dull-looking skin, there is no faster way than exfoliating. Reveal younger-looking skin today! 

Look for products that use Alpha Hydroxy Acids; they are different acids that gently exfoliate without having to go to the extreme and use a peel. Peels can be very harsh on the face and can cause scarring. Not to mention it takes your complexion a week to recover.

During the week, your skin may peel and look flaky many times. Below is a photo of what your skin can look like after a peel. Many people love peels, which can be a great product if used correctly.

However, if you are considering a peel, they are best done in the safety of a skilled esthetician.

Anti-Aging Tip: Add a teaspoon of baking soda to your cleanser for natural exfoliation once or twice a week. If baking soda is too aggressive for those with mature skin, use a teaspoon of sugar. For oily complexions, use a teaspoon of salt.

If your complexion is dull, get glowing with exfoliation!
