Please don't do this.I exfoliate every time I shower by scratching my face all over with a harsh loofa.
Why, I've been doing it for years.Please don't do this.
Because that is incredibly harsh and you simply don't need to (read:shouldn't) be that harsh with your skin.Why, I've been doing it for years.
Nigga syndromeWhy is it always black people that have this?
I think my skin has toughened up after getting used to it. I don't even get red marks anymore after doing it.Because that is incredibly harsh and you simply don't need to (read:shouldn't) be that harsh with your skin.
That doesn't make it okay to do though.I think my skin has toughened up after getting used to it. I don't even get red marks anymore after doing it.
Maybe, but I don't know if it's much worse than regular exfoliators with grit and chemicals in them.That doesn't make it okay to do though.

Yes it is.Maybe, but I don't know if it's much worse than regular exfoliators with grit and chemicals in them.
The little scratchy pebbles in it, I just call it grit. This site tells you what chemicals are bad that are in products. https://www.ewg.org/skindeep/products/783354-everyone-face-exfoliate/Yes it is.
Grit? Don't use a physical exfoliant then.
Chemicals? Everything is chemicals bro, I'm going to need you to be more specific about which ones you have an issue with.
Oh fucking hell not the EWG. They are full of shit. Dangerously so. They are in no way, shape or form a reliable source and (unless something has changed very recently) are telling people about all of these "toxic" ingredients without employing a single toxicologist.The little scratchy pebbles in it, I just call it grit.

Wtf. Where's a reliable place?Oh fucking hell not the EWG. They are full of shit. Dangerously so. They are in no way, shape or form a reliable source and (unless something has changed very recently) are telling people about all of these "toxic" ingredients without employing a single toxicologist.
If you're buying your personal care products from reputable brands, then they are safe. Things like ThinkDirty and the EWG are there just to make money, not actually help you.Wtf. Where's a reliable place?
Usually the famous brands have the most crap in them, same with foods.If you're buying your personal care products from reputable brands, then they are safe. Things like ThinkDirty and the EWG are there just to make money, not actually help you.
Which crap precisely do you have an issue with?Usually the famous brands have the most crap in them, same with foods.
I have sensitive skin so a lot of things, I just try to look for stuff that get good ratings on amazon and egw, then I'll consider it safe. Until now I don't think I've had any issues by doing that.Which crap precisely do you have an issue with?
If it works for you, go for it. But just know that neither of those are at all reliable.I have sensitive skin so a lot of things, I just try to look for stuff that get good rating on amazon and egw, then I'll consider it safe. Until now I don't think I've had any issues by doing that.
I'll just stick with the products that are working for me now and not change them to be safe.If it works for you, go for it. But just know that neither of those are at all reliable.
the bigger the brand the less of a fuck they give. the name and ad dollars carry the dogshit they peddle they make from the cheapest sludge possibleIf you're buying your personal care products from reputable brands, then they are safe.

Not strictly true. Don't get me wrong, they're obviously motivated by profit- but they don't necessarily make it from the cheapest stuff possible.the bigger the brand the less of a fuck they give. the name and ad dollars carry the dogshit they peddle they make from the cheapest sludge possible![]()
Should I still exfoliate if I use RetinA? And is it a good idea to use vit c serum on one day in the pm and retinA on the other day?Yes it is.
Grit? Don't use a physical exfoliant then.
