Your 2020 glow-up is happening, trust me. Right now, you’re just one exfoliator away from achieving gorgeous, glowing skin. Ask any skin care experts, they will tell you that a good exfoliator is an essential part of any skin care regime, especially if you’re a K-Beauty junkie like us. Exfoliation promotes cell turnover, allowing old dead skin cells to shed and make room for new healthy skin to grow. But the thing is, it takes time and effort to figure out which exfoliator works best for you, or what ingredients you should be looking for in your exfoliator. That’s why I’ve rounded up 10 best selling exfoliators you should look out for this year. So, consider this your ultimate guide to exfoliating your way to gorgeous, glowing skin and keep scrolling!
