is it ok to use a loafa for an exfoliator for the face?

Question

i think its called a loafa ..its one of those sponge lookin things that u use on your body i think...but im just askin to see if its ok to use on the face only cuz i have a mini one. ok thx

Answer 1

I think so, just don't scrub too hard. Your face skin is more tender than your body.

Answer 2

Nooo... we scrub the floor ladies not our faces. Use an exfoliating product that has a cream base and the granules should be round like ball bearings, not jagged little bits ( found in some less expensive products) Clinique makes a good one. And never exfoliate over an area where there is breakout.

Answer 3

nooo...loafas are made for the body and feet. your face is a completely different type of skin then the rest of your body. try a mechanical exfoliator (one that has scrubbing beads) if you want good exfoliation. also using products w/ alpha hydroxy fruit acids (AHA) helps move along the process and it is a natural exfoliant. some toners have them in it.

Answer 4

I wouldn't do it! its way too harsh for your face, plus too much exfoliating can to lead to even dryer skin and making it more acne prone. try a gentle face wash with little exfoliating beads or a gentle facial brush (sold @ JC Penny). Leave tha loofah for ur feet!

Answer 5

It's kind of rough for the face. I would use a buff puff instead.

Answer 6

you could, but it's REALLY harsh on your skin so it's not recommended, your skin u'll get really red and just not a good thing to do. so i'd recommend no, just to harsh and your skin might get scratched up and what not.

Answer 7

Judgeing by your pic you need plastic sugery! JK its okay!

Answer 8

if you use a gentle face soar, and only use it on your face, otherwise you would be spreading bacteria

Answer 9

its ok, just dont scrub 2 hard:)
