How to Choose the Right Exfoliant for Your Skin Type
Choosing the right exfoliant is key to healthy, glowing skin. For sensitive skin, a gentle exfoliator like Yamu’s sugar and rice flour scrub is ideal, offering a mild physical exfoliation that won’t irritate. Oily or acne-prone skin may benefit from clay-based exfoliants that absorb excess oil while detoxifying. Regular exfoliation is essential for removing dead skin cells, and with Yamu’s natural scrubs, you can ensure that you’re exfoliating safely and effectively.
