Skincare myth: Daily exfoliating scrubs are good for your skin
When I was growing up as a teenager, we were encouraged to use daily exfoliating scrubs (often containing harsh beads), advised that it was ‘good for our skin’ and would ‘clear acne’. This is a myth, using this kind of exfoliant daily will only irritate the skin. You’re much better off using a gentle AHA once or twice a week, my favourite being glycolic acid.
