Types of Facial Exfoliants

Not all exfoliants work the same way—or for the same skin concerns. Whether you’re looking to clarify and minimize pores, smooth texture, or boost brightness, understanding the different types of exfoliants can help you find the best fit for your routine. Glo’s clean, dermatologist-approved formulas deliver results across three targeted approaches. Chemical exfoliants use ingredients like AHAs and BHAs to dissolve dead skin

Frequently Asked Questions About Exfoliants

  • What is a clean facial exfoliant?

    A clean facial exfoliant is formulated without harsh or irritating ingredients and is designed to gently remove dead skin cells, boost radiance, and support healthy skin without disrupting your barrier. Glo’s exfoliants are cruelty-free and thoughtfully crafted for effective, results-driven skincare.

  • How often should I exfoliate my face?

    2–3 times a week is a general guideline. Those with sensitive skin may prefer once weekly, while oilier skin types may tolerate more frequent exfoliation. Always monitor your skin’s response.

  • What’s the difference between physical and chemical exfoliants?

    Physical exfoliants use texture (like jojoba beads) to manually remove dead skin, while chemical exfoliants use ingredients like AHAs or BHAs to dissolve those cells without friction. Chemical options tend to be gentler and better for sensitive or breakout-prone skin.

  • Can I use a face exfoliant if I have acne?

    Yes—but choose carefully. A chemical exfoliant with salicylic acid is often best for acne-prone skin. It clears pores and minimizes breakouts. Avoid abrasive scrubs that can aggravate blemishes.

  • Should I exfoliate in the morning or at night?

    Exfoliating at night is often recommended since your skin regenerates while you sleep. This also gives your skin time to absorb post-exfoliation treatments like hydrating serums or overnight masks.
