Yes, it's generally recommended to use a scrub at night. This allows your skin to recover and heal from the exfoliation before you go out into the sun or apply makeup.
Here are some benefits of using a scrub at night:
- Allows for overnight repair: Using a scrub at night allows your skin to repair itself overnight, minimizing the risk of irritation or sensitivity from sun exposure or makeup application.
- Prevents clogged pores: Exfoliating at night can help remove dead skin cells and other debris that can clog pores, promoting clearer skin.
- Improves product absorption: Exfoliating before bed allows your skincare products to penetrate more effectively, as they can reach the deeper layers of skin.
However, it's important to note that you shouldn't use a scrub more than 2-3 times a week, as excessive exfoliation can damage your skin barrier.
Remember to use a good quality lip balm or moisturizer after using a scrub to soothe your skin and prevent dryness.
