To achieve smooth, glowing skin, grain-based scrubs are not the only option. Increasingly popular in Morocco, the chemical exfoliants (or gentle peels) offer a powerful alternative for renewing the skin without mechanical abrasion. Unlike physical scrubs which use grains to detach dead cells by friction, chemical exfoliants use active ingredients like fruit acids (AHA), salicylic acid (BHA), or high-concentration urea to dissolve the bonds between dead skin cells and promote their natural elimination.
At Wlidaty, we have selected expert products to address specific issues: dull complexion, irregular skin texture, enlarged pores, or severe calluses on the body. These treatments work deeply to stimulate cell renewal. Whether you are looking to restore radiance to your face with an AHA cream or treat rough areas (feet, elbows) with intense keratolytic care, this collection offers safe and effective dermatological solutions tailored to your sensitivity.
Types of Exfoliants and their Benefits:
- AHA (Fruit Acids): Ideal for the face, they exfoliate the skin's surface to restore radiance, fade dark spots, and smooth fine lines. Perfect for a "new skin" effect.
- High-Concentration Urea (30% - 40%): Powerful "keratolytic" treatments intended for the body. They soften and eliminate thick calluses, corns, or treat thickened nails.
- Gentle Exfoliating Lotions: Liquid formulas to apply with cotton for progressive daily action, gentler than grain-based scrubs, suitable for sensitive skin.
- Detoxifying Powders: Such as charcoal, which acts by adsorption to deeply purify pores and eliminate accumulated toxins (pollution, sebum).
Usage Tips and Important Precautions:
- Mandatory Sun Protection: Chemical exfoliants (especially AHAs) thin the skin and make it more sensitive to the Moroccan sun. Be sure to apply a full-spectrum SPF 50+ sunscreen the next morning.
- Appropriate Frequency: Do not use them every day (unless otherwise stated). Start with 1 to 2 times per week to let your skin adjust.
- Evening Application: For the face, prioritize application in the evening to allow the skin to regenerate overnight.
- Hydration: After an exfoliating or keratolytic treatment, the skin absorbs active ingredients better. This is the ideal time to apply a hydrating serum or a nourishing cream.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
What is the difference between a mechanical scrub and a chemical exfoliant?
A mechanical scrub uses grains (sugar, kernels) and requires rubbing. A chemical exfoliant uses active ingredients (acids, enzymes, urea) that gently remove dead skin without mechanical action, often providing a more uniform result and being less irritating for inflamed skin.
Is urea a chemical exfoliant?
Yes, at high concentration (over 10-20%), urea becomes keratolytic. It breaks down excess keratin (calluses, thick dead skin) to intensely exfoliate rough areas like heels or elbows.
Can AHAs be used on sensitive skin?
Yes, but with caution. You must choose low concentrations or gentle lotions, space out applications, and always moisturize the skin well afterward. A slight tingling sensation is normal, but it should not burn.
Do these products help against acne and blackheads?
Absolutely. By unclogging pores and accelerating cell renewal, chemical exfoliants prevent the accumulation of sebum and dead skin cells responsible for pimples and blackheads.
What is the price of these specialized treatments?
Prices vary according to the product's technicality. On our website, you will find accessible options like raw powders or lotions, as well as targeted dermatological treatments (ISDIN, Janssen) offering excellent value for money in dirhams (MAD).
