I'm in desperate need of a good exfoliator. I feel like my skin always feels rough/flaky even though I have oily skin. I exfoliate weekly with masks, exfoliating sponges & such. When I do exfoliate, my skin is smooth for a day then goes right back to being flaky. What exfoliating scrubs do you use and recommend?

Btw, I moisturize morning and night + avoid drying cleansers. 
Thanks!

You should check out LUSH products they have a lot of different types for skins I had the same issue especially on my forehead and it helped out and made it less.

The St. Ives apricot scrub actually isn't good for the skin, the bits in it are too harsh and can cause damage.

I highly suggest the Boscia Exfoliating Peel Gel. It's gentle enough to use everyday and my skin always feels so smooth. It acts as a physical and a chemical exfoliate so you're getting the best results. I highly recommend it (:

My favorite manual exfoliant right now is Bliss micro magic. It exfoliates but doesn't leave your skin feeling as stripped of oil as a lot of others I've used so I think it helps bc it doesn't remove the dry skin but then cause more dry skin if that makes sense:)

Omg, never use anything that scrubs particles on the skin. Use a liquid exfoliant daily. AHA, lactic acid, hyleronic acid. Try products from The Ordinary.

Thank you for the suggestions! I'm going to give lush, boscia, and bliss a try :)

I actually already use aha and hyaluronic acid but I see very little results:/
