Easy way to exfoliate sensitive skin

1. Can I use a scrub if I have sensitive skin?

Most physical scrubs are too abrasive for sensitive skin. Choose enzyme-based or very fine, soft exfoliators instead.

2. How often should I exfoliate sensitive skin?

Once a week is usually plenty. Too much exfoliation can damage your skin barrier and lead to redness or flakiness.

3. Are chemical exfoliants safe for sensitive skin?

Mild acids like lactic acid under 5% or PHAs are generally safe. Always patch-test first and avoid strong concentrations.

4. What ingredients should I avoid in exfoliators?

Skip products with alcohol, artificial fragrances, menthol, and harsh acids. These can irritate sensitive skin fast.

5. Do I need to moisturize after exfoliating?

Yes, moisturizing right after exfoliating helps lock in hydration and calm any irritation.

6. Will exfoliating help with dry flakes and rough patches?

Gentle exfoliation can remove dry flakes and smooth rough spots, but harsh methods may make them worse.

7. Is it safe to combine exfoliation with other active ingredients?

It’s best not to mix exfoliators with retinol, vitamin C, or other strong actives, especially if your skin is sensitive.

8. Does Lotus Botanicals have products for sensitive skin exfoliation?

Yes, our enzyme-based exfoliators are formulated specifically for sensitive skin. They’re vegan, gentle, and free from common irritants.

9. Why do enzyme exfoliators work better for sensitive skin?

Enzyme exfoliators dissolve dead skin cells without scrubbing or strong acids, making them less likely to irritate sensitive skin.
