Any exfoliator advice for a 'seedy' chin please?

I don't have great skin (nothing major, but certainly not glowing) - but, recently, I've noticed that I really need to use an exfoliator to get out all the little 'bits.'

This maybe won't make sense but . . . if I jut my chin out (lovely), I can see little seeds in my pores. I can squeeze those out - takes ages and is gross - or I can exfoliate a lot, scrub with a towel, and then expect to see them again the next day (also lovely). A few on forehead, cheeks, side of nose (lots there actually) too.

I wear make-up every day. I've been using Estee Lauder and Clarins but it's too gentle. Micellar water is no good, and OCM method seems to leave lots on my face.

I'd rather have something cheaper that I can use lots and make my face feel really clean - any suggestions (preferably something I can get in Boots or supermarket as I'd like it today and don't live near 'proper' shops!)?

I'm late 40s, don't smoke, vegetarian - so I should be less of a state really Sad.

Thank you Smile.

BotanicBaby PLEASE don't use bicarb on your skin! It may seem gentle but it damages the acid mantle of your skin, which is really important to skin protection. It is awful for your skin.

Dermalogica daily microfoliant is good.

Pricey though you can get small bottles on e-bay.
