A gentle exfoliation is good for every day to get rid of the dead skin cells. Mary Kay 3-in-1 Cleanser is perfect. Click the link below to learn more or buy.

You can exfoliate every day but NOT with something as rough as the apricot scrub. That is great for your body but too rough for your face.
You should use a beta hydroxy or a salicylic acid product on your face if you have oily skin, or alpha hydroxy acid if you have dry skin. You can use these producted daily, and you wont need any other type of exfoliation.

You should only exfoliate 2-3 times a week. It isn't good for you to exfoliate every day, because when you exfoliate it takes off a layer of skin. That layer of skin may not all be dead because a lot of dead skin comes off from the water in the shower.

Well it depends on your skin type too. If you have oily skin than about 3 to 4 times a week should be alright. If you have sensitive skin then less than that. Once a day is probably to much. Your skin is pretty delicate. Hope this helps!

yes this is very bad for your skin...u should only exfoliate once a week...if u have oily skin twice a week.
u are stripping away layers of ur skin, not giving it time to rest and produce new skin cells on your skin surface. there are lots of tiny cells on your skin and they die and stay on your skin untill u exfoliate and then they start the cycle again and produce new ones...making your skin more healthy and younger looking

its supposedly 2-3 times a week
you do it everyday? yes, maybe your skin will instantly getting smooth but I afraid it will effected to your skin in the future, your pore will getting larger and your skin will become thin and dry.
My suggestion is exfoliate your skin 2-3 times/week and always moisturize your skin after it.

What kind are you useing (I will sit and wait)
Thanks,
If it has micro beads, it is fine to use it everyday. It depends on your skin type if it will irritate it, but it should be fine.
But, if it has natural ingrediants, such as walnuts, it's rougher on your skin and should be used in moderation. (Every other day or so; or what works best for you.)
Hope this helped. Happy clensing!! (lol)

Depends on what kind of skin you have. If you have acne or hyperpigmentation, do it more often then if you have sensitive skin.
