If it says so on the package you can do it, but usually it says once or twice a week.

Over exfoliating can cause your skin to react sometimes and make you break out, if suggest looking for an exfoliating face wash instead

No you should cleanse twice a day an exfoliate about twice a week if your cleanser has exfoliating beads in it then thats fine to use daily.

No your not supposed to use it everyday once or twice a week is good. Your skin has natural oils that are good and necessary for your skin. if you use a scrub everyday you'll lose those important natural oils

Thank you! I'll keep that on mind. But my facial scrub lessen my acne, and my face is better than before. I'm just worried if I continue using it everyday. But I guess, I should use it twice a week. I'll just use facial wash. Right? :)

If its a gentle scrub like aveeno daily scrub and says daily on it you can use it daily if its one of those scrubs that feel like sand you do not wanna use it on a daily basis

If its not harsh & for everyday use then yes but if not then DON't, I burned my skin from scrubbing my face everyday, my face was all red & didn't go away for a day or two & it hurt a lot , so be careful

Too much of a good thing can backfire on you. Even if it says great for daily use I would still err on caution. Such wording on packaging is just a sales tactic to get consumers to fly thru product in hopes of getting them to buy more. I only use my scrub if my skin starts feeling rough and that is maybe three times a month.

That's too much!!

Over exfoliating your skin will make it oily because it'll over produce oil if you take too much away, it'll also irritate acne and cause break outs.

Apricot scrubs should not be used at all because the grains are sharp a jagged an made of shells if it is a scurb like aveeno they are round beads and incased in a gel that amount of exfoilation is perfectly fine daily and the round beads can not tear the skin its the same amout of exfoliation as using a clarisonic daily, and if you find your skin is much better now that you have been exfoliating the reason is because your promoting faster cell turnover an that is keeping your pores free of debri , the fact is people under exfoiliate thats what leads to pimples ,wrinkles and dull complextion a gentle daily exfoliation of the skin is recommeded however harsh scrubs should be twice a week and apricot scrubs should only be used on your body ,I have clients that come in all the time with breakouts dark spots an dry patches an when I asked them how often do the exfoiliate they say once a month or not at all well thats the problem. as long as the product is gentle and your skin type can tolerate it you can but some people with sensitive skin should stick with twice a week you have to no your skin and what it can tolerate.

Not really, because you'll end up scrubbing to much and taking too much oils and skin off your face, leaving it law and more prone to breakouts.

...unless its VERY gentle and you don't scrub too much.

Don't exfoliate everyday because your skin cells need to replenish

No it might make you're face dry or you might loose natural oils that your skin really needs.
