As it undergoes this process, we are left with layers of dead skin in our body and exfoliating help get rid of this. It also helps maintain and brighten the skin. Removing dry and dull skin helps increase blood circulation and improves the skin\u2019s appearance.<\/span><\/p>\n There are two forms of exfoliation: Physical and chemical. Physical exfoliation involves the use of facial scrub and brushes, while chemical exfoliation is when you use acids and skin peels to remove those unwanted dry and dead skin on your body.
