Peeling agents: natural and synthetic variants

for smooth skin


Exfoliants are an important ingredient in skin care products that help remove dead skin cells, smooth skin, and improve the appearance of pores. They play a key role in exfoliators, scrubs, and cleansers to rejuvenate skin and promote circulation.


In this article we will look at the differences between natural and synthetic peeling agents and their respective applications in the cosmetics industry.

Types of peeling agents:


Exfoliants fall into two main categories: mechanical and chemical. Mechanical exfoliants work through physical friction, while chemical exfoliants use enzymes or acids to resurface the skin.


Natural peeling agents:

Natural exfoliants often consist of crushed seeds, nut shells or salts and offer an environmentally friendly alternative to synthetic versions. These substances are biodegradable and can be used in products that are particularly suitable for sensitive skin.


Synthetic peeling agents:

Synthetic peeling agents are often made from polymers or micronized materials. These are evenly shaped and offer gentle but effective abrasion. They can be specifically tailored to the needs of different skin types, although they are increasingly being criticized for microplastics.
