If you think following a CTM routine, i.e. cleansing, toning and moisturizing is all you require to achieve a healthy skin, then you are partially right. Partially, because exfoliation is must for achieving your ‘skin goal’. Exfoliation is essentially a part of cleansing, but many of us don’t exfoliate our skin regularly. Exfoliation, if done rightly, can help us overcome a number of skin problems, such as acne, dry skin, extremely oily skin, pigmentation and anti aging as well.
