Before You Pick an Exfoliator

Exfoliating helps clear away dead skin cells for a smoother, brighter-looking surface. The options here come in two families: grainy scrubs, like Eva's 65 EGP scrub or Neutrogena's daily scrub, and acid exfoliants, like See-Lit's fruit acid serum or Eveline's 15% glycolic serum. Oily skin, sensitive skin and first-time users each need a different texture and strength.

How to choose

  • Oily or acne-prone skin: try options made for it, like Bioderma Sebium or Clinvex Plus.
  • Sensitive skin: start with a gentle gel like Avène and skip coarse grains and high strengths.
  • Beginners should start mild and hold off on multi-acid or 15% glycolic serums until skin adjusts.
  • Prices run from 65 to 1,425 EGP; a higher price doesn't mean a better fit for your skin.
  • On acne treatment or retinoids, or pregnant? Ask the pharmacist before buying.

Frequently asked questions

Should I choose a scrub or an acid exfoliant?

Scrubs leave skin feeling smooth right away, but rubbing too hard can irritate it. Acids like glycolic and fruit acids exfoliate without rubbing, but you need to build up to them slowly. If your skin is sensitive or you're unsure which type suits you, ask the pharmacist.

How often should I exfoliate?

It depends on the product and your skin type, so follow the label first. Start with a few times a week and increase gradually if you don't see redness or stinging. Some products, like Neutrogena's scrub, are made for daily use. Concentrated acid serums call for more caution.

Do I need sunscreen after using acids?

Yes, that's recommended. Acids can make skin more sensitive to the sun, so wear sunscreen during the day and reapply if you're outside for long. That's also why many acid products, like See-Lit's night toner, are meant for evening use.

Can I exfoliate if my skin is sensitive?

Usually yes, but choose a gentle product like Avène's exfoliating gel and use it less often. Patch test on a small area first, and stop if you get lasting redness or burning. If you have a diagnosed skin condition, ask the pharmacist or a dermatologist first.

Can I use an exfoliator with retinol or vitamin C?

Using several active ingredients on the same night can raise the risk of irritation, especially with strong acid serums. Many people use them on alternate nights instead. Ask the pharmacist to help you plan your routine around the products you actually use.
