I have sensitive and when I decide to exfoliate since it's recommended I use rag and lightly scrub face until all the flakes and dead skin are gone but then my face gets really oily looking and wrinkly for about 3 days then I look young again but I don't get what's the problem shouldn't exfoliating make you look younger?

Don't exfoliate by scrubbing, that's just irritating your skin, in turn causing acne breakouts. If you want to exfoliate I recommend doing it chemically. I use acne.org AHA+ to exfoliate and it works great. If you are on the regimen which I assume you are since you posted this in the regimen forum, next time you place an order for your products order the 6oz AHA and you'll be a happy camper.

 

Also a lot of people say that using BP ages them, which is a good sign you are not moisturizing properly. It's probably not the exfoliating that is giving you that look, it's probably the BP and your skin is overly dry.

If you are going to use a scrub, you should only be using it 1-3 times a week. I've heard good things about the AHA from this website.
