Avoiding Over-Exfoliation

While exfoliation is beneficial for maintaining smooth, clear skin, over-exfoliation can lead to irritation, redness, and a compromised skin barrier. Clients at SOS Wax and Skincare should be advised to exfoliate no more than 2-3 times per week, depending on their skin type, and to use gentle exfoliants that suit their needs. Recommending specific exfoliating products that balance effectiveness with gentleness ensures that clients can maintain the health of their skin without causing damage. This tip is particularly important for clients with sensitive or reactive skin, as over-exfoliation can exacerbate these conditions and lead to discomfort. Providing this advice helps clients achieve the benefits of exfoliation while protecting their skin, supporting long-term skin health and maintaining the results of their treatments.
