What’s the difference between a chemical exfoliant and a physical exfoliant?Updated 2 years ago
A chemical exfoliant, like Beekman 1802’s Milk Wash Exfoliating Jelly Cleanser, uses chemicals like alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) and beta hydroxy acids (BHAs) to promote cellular turnover and reveal smoother, brighter skin. A physical exfoliant involves manually scrubbing the skin to remove dead skin cells through the use of granules, like the gentle jojoba beads found in Beekman 1802’s Milk Scrub Oat & Goat Milk Exfoliating Cleanser.
