Health and beauty: peeling to clean the skin in depth

Keep the skin Clean is, fundamentally, one of the first gestures of health and beauty, since what we show abroad will be a true reflection of how we feel and are inside.

However, between one of the most effective beauty and hygiene gestures we find the peeling wave exfoliation, since with this simple and simple action we get to remove the dead cells that are in our skin, and this will appear much more luminous and clear. The peeling it can be done by simply using a natural sponge with the cleaning product, this practice being one of the most recommended for normal, fine or dry skin.

But for thicker skins with a certain fat tendency the best thing is an exfoliation with something more "strong" products: masks based on propolis, white clay or oats.

What is the peeling and what is it for?

Basically we could define the peeling as a procedure that provides the possibility of rejuvenate the skin by helping to remove the different dead cells that over time tend to accumulate completely and completely naturally in it, eliminating in turn the different upper layers of the skin that are damaged.

That is to say, the peel offers the possibility of removing the layer of superficial skin that contains dead cells and that therefore can also be damaged, to reveal a much more renewed layer, soft, shiny and, above all, younger.

Depending on the objective there are different types of peeling: chemical, mechanical and enzymatic. What are your differences and when to use one type of peel or another ?:

  • Chemical peeling:The peeling is done by applying, on the skin, a chemical solution that acts by removing the damaged upper layers, becoming younger and softer. Among other functions, this type of peeling helps to treat wrinkles and the typical lines of expression, scars and sequels left by acne, as well as to eliminate facial blemishes. For its application it is very important to prepare the skin carrying out a deep cleaning of it.
  • Mechanical peeling:It is a much deeper type of peeling, which allows through the application of an intensive exfoliation with diamond tips and with manual polishing, the extraction of pimples, blackheads and comedones. It leaves, therefore, a skin much finer and completely free of impurities, being ideal to leave the skin smooth and to seal the dilated pores.
  • Enzymatic peeling:Type of peeling that allows to renew the skin of both the face and the body. For this purpose, natural solutions that are extracted from fruits are fundamentally used. It allows to eliminate the superficial layers of the dermis, and to eliminate in turn the dilated pores. It is much more natural, since by not containing any type of acid the pH of the skin is balanced. In addition, it has no side effects and allows you to be sure that allergic reactions will not occur.

Virtues and benefits of peeling

Between the most important peeling properties and the exfoliation itself, we find that thanks to its different softening, purifying and cleansing properties, we help maintain the natural protection of our skin. That, of course, without counting the cleanliness and exfoliation we do on our own skin.

It allows to enjoy a much smoother and smoother skin, since we renew the superficial layers of it, removing not only impurities (such as blackheads, pimples and comedones), but also the dead cells that usually tend to accumulate in it. A process, by the way, absolutely natural and normal.

Although the choice of the type of peeling depends directly on the personal tastes of each and the purpose that is sought with it. In addition, especially, depending on the recommendation made by the specialist in cosmetics (since sensitive skin tend not to withstand the effects of chemical peeling, for example). However, it is true that the enzymatic peeling, being more natural, tends to be more respectful with the skin and its pH.
