FAQ

What other products do you offer in your INSKIN.CO range?

INSKIN.CO offers a full range of skincare, including gentle cleansers and exfoliators, corrective serums to target all skin concerns, lightweight hydrators, and targeted daily mask treatments designed to support glowing, healthy skin.

Are there face exfoliants that are suitable for sensitive skin?

Absolutely! If you have sensitive skin, choose a gentle exfoliating cleanser, such as one with polyhydroxy acid (PHA). Avoid harsh physical scrubs and opt for an exfoliating cleanser like Foaming Enzyme Cleanser, designed for delicate and sensitive skin to prevent irritation while still achieving a hydrated, fresh and smooth complexion.

How does an exfoliating cleanser help with dull skin and uneven texture?

Dullness and uneven texture often result from a buildup of dead skin cells. An exfoliating cleanser works to dissolve and remove these cells, revealing a more even, radiant complexion. Over time, regular exfoliation improves skin texture, minimises rough patches, and enhances natural glow.

Can using a face exfoliant help with acne or blemishes?

Yes! A face exfoliant can help reduce acne and blemishes by unclogging pores, preventing breakouts, and reducing the appearance of acne scars. Look for an exfoliating cleanser with PHAs or gentle enzymes to target blemishes without over-drying the skin. If the skin is inflamed with aggressive or aggravated acne exfoliation must be guided by a Skin Expert as this can exacerbate the condition.

 

How often should I use an exfoliant for face to avoid irritation?

To avoid irritation, the frequency of using a face exfoliant depends on the health of your skin and your skin type, as well as the strength of the product. It’s always best to consult a Skin Expert for guidance, however in general, if you have normal, combination or oily skin, using certain exfoliants 2-3 times per week can help maintain a smooth and clear complexion. For dry or sensitive skin, limiting exfoliation to once per week (if required at all) prevents over-drying and irritation. Since over-exfoliating can cause redness and sensitivity, finding the right balance and exfoliant is essential for healthy, glowing skin. When in doubt, consult with a professional Skin Expert.

Can I just use a body scrub on my face to exfoliate?

Using a body scrub on your face is not recommended, as body scrubs are typically formulated with larger, more abrasive particles that can be too harsh for the delicate skin on your face. Facial skin is thinner and more sensitive than the skin on your body, so it requires a gentler exfoliating cleanser designed to remove dead skin cells without causing irritation or damage. Opt for an exfoliating cleanser or a face exfoliant specifically formulated for facial skin to ensure effective yet gentle exfoliation.

What are the benefits of using an exfoliant?

Exfoliating your skin provides numerous benefits, including removing dead skin cells for a smoother texture, unclogging pores to help prevent acne and blackheads, and enhancing radiance by promoting cell turnover. Exfoliants also improve the absorption of skincare products, allowing serums and moisturisers to penetrate more effectively.

Additionally, regular exfoliation helps even out skin tone by reducing hyperpigmentation and dullness. Incorporating an exfoliant into your routine can make a visible difference, leaving your skin fresh, glowing, and youthful.

What is an exfoliating cleanser, and how does it work?

An exfoliating cleanser is a face wash that combines cleansing and exfoliation in one step. It removes dirt, oil, and impurities while using a combination of gentle exfoliants such as enzymes, AHAs, PHAs, BHAs or fine particles to slough off dead skin. This process promotes a brighter, smoother complexion, making it an essential step for healthy, glowing skin.

What are exfoliants, and why are they important for skincare?

Exfoliants are skincare ingredients or products that remove dead skin cells, unclog pores, and promote cell turnover. Regular exfoliation helps maintain a clear, smooth, and radiant complexion by preventing buildup that can lead to breakouts and dullness. Using an exfoliating cleanser ensures your skin absorbs serums and moisturisers more effectively, enhancing results and from your skincare routine.
