Dead skin cells naturally accumulate on the surface of the skin as part of the body's renewal process. While shedding old skin is normal, a buildup of dead skin cells can make the skin appear dull, rough, dry, and uneven. Factors such as pollution, sun exposure, aging, and inadequate skincare can slow down the natural exfoliation process, leading to clogged pores and a lackluster complexion. Removing dead skin regularly helps reveal fresher, smoother skin underneath, improves skin texture, and allows moisturizers and other skincare products to work more effectively. Simple home remedies using natural ingredients can gently exfoliate the skin, restore its natural glow, and promote healthier-looking skin without the use of harsh chemicals.
