Definition
Removing or tending to remove outer layers of skin, bark, or material; actively shedding or stripping away surface material.
Etymology
Present participle of 'exfoliate,' used as an adjective to describe something actively engaged in the exfoliation process.
Kelly Says
The skincare industry's obsession with 'exfoliating' products shows how a technical Latin-derived term became everyday vocabulary—your grandmother might have used a pumice stone, but now millions of products promise to exfoliate you.
