The skin’s outer layer is typically composed of dead skin cells that require regular exfoliation. Overtime, skin that is not exfoliated can become clogged or dull. This will result in dull, tired skin that is unable to absorb moisturizers effectively. The thick layer is often a result of heavy sebum production preventing skin cell renewal.
