liquid exfoliators

Sephora customers often prefer the following products when searching for liquid exfoliators.

Exfoliators are products designed to be applied to the skin in a thin layer and then washed off after a few minutes. The idea is that the liquid exfoliator will remove dead skin cells and dirt from the skin while also stimulating the growth of new skin cells.
