• Previously, I overused acids and ended up with dry, red, sensitive skin. I wanted something more controlled and professionally supervised. I kept hearing people laugh at me for having "skin as thick as an inch." So I thought: My dead skin must be super thick. If I don't exfoliate thoroughly enough, how could my skin ever be smooth? But the truth is, over-exfoliating only makes your skin more and more sensitive. If you want to brighten, fade dark spots, or get rid of blemishes, you're actually moving further away from your goals.

The more aggressive the exfoliation, the smoother the skin? Not necessarily.

Many girls hear "exfoliation" or "skin renewal" and assume: the higher the acidity, the stronger the scrub, and all pores, blemishes, and blackheads will vanish in one go. The truth is, over-exfoliation only thins the skin, leading to sensitivity, breakouts, and makeup caking.

DAS's all-new BabyGlow Radiance is designed to shatter the myth that "only harsh chemical peels deliver results." Its medical-grade formula gently exfoliates while replenishing nutrients, leaving skin luminous, refined, and stable.

The stratum corneum is not dead skin; it is the protective brick wall of the skin.

The stratum corneum, composed of keratinocytes and lipids, acts like a protective brick wall. It locks in moisture, defends against allergens and pollutants, and is a crucial component of the skin barrier.

When you frequently over-cleanse with high-concentration acids, scrubs, and cleansing brushes, it's like sanding brick walls daily with sandpaper. The result is dryness, flaking, redness, itching, and "oily on the surface yet dehydrated underneath" skin—even the simplest skincare products will sting.

Warning signs you may be over-exfoliating

If you find yourself checking off any of these points, you might want to consider whether you've taken things too far:

• After washing my face, it immediately felt tight, even plain water stung my skin.
• As soon as I apply foundation, it flakes and cakes, leaving red marks that linger for ages, while dark spots and pimples just keep multiplying.

At this stage, the most important step isn't to intensify exfoliation, but to pause all irritating products. Switch to highly effective hydration and repair to allow your skin barrier to gradually rebuild. Then, let a professional team help you plan your next exfoliation regimen.

How often should you exfoliate? Different skin types require different "frequencies."

Exfoliation frequency isn't something you should just follow blindly because "others say it's okay." It needs to be adjusted based on your skin type, product type, and lifestyle:

• Normal/Combination Skin: Gentle exfoliation about once a week is sufficient. Pair it with moisturizing and sun protection.
• Dry/Sensitive Skin: We recommend extending the interval to every 2–4 weeks. You may even opt for BabyGlow, an acid-free exfoliator suitable for sensitive and dehydrated skin.

For high-concentration medical-grade acids, treatments are typically scheduled monthly or adjusted by your doctor based on your recovery progress. Frequent acid treatments without professional guidance are not recommended.
