How Much Face Exfoliation is Healthy?

I tend to have very dry skin on my face and need to exfoliate daily in order to keep from having little speckles of dried skin all over my face. I use a very rough, round pad to scrub at my face, but I'm not sure if this is ';good'; for my skin as it leaves my face somewhat raw.





Is there a recommended method to exfoliate and/or remove excess dead/drying skin from the face? And can exfoliating your face this much be harmful to your skin health?How Much Face Exfoliation is Healthy?
My skin is sensitive so I can't exfoliate too often.





The recommended amout for dry skin is twice a week and three times a week in winter. Are you using an exfoliating cleanser as well? Maybe you should and use some kind of hydrating moisturizer to keep your skin from getting so dry.How Much Face Exfoliation is Healthy?
I exfoliate my face daily. I use St Ives apricot scrub for sensitive skin
Daily is just too much, the recommended is once a week. If you have really dry skin the best idea is to drink plenty of water and avoid drink with caffeine, and also hydrate your skin, I also have dry skin and use Moisture Surge Extra thirsty skin relief, of Clinique, this is a gel-creme and you can use it anytime even over your makeup.
