Exfoliate Your Skin

Your skin is constantly shedding. Exfoliating the skin will help remove dead skin cells. Exfoliation helps prevent acne and will make your skin glow.
Here are step by step directions on how to exfoliate your skin.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1
     

    Wet your body thoroughly in the bath or shower.

  2. Step 2

    Apply body scrub to your body using either your hands or a washcloth. Pay extra attention to areas that dry skin builds up on. Your elbows, knees and feet.

  3. Step 3

    Rub the body scrub in with circular motions to exfoliate your skin. Take care not to be to rough.

  4. Step 4

    Rinse all the scrub off your body and pat dry but leave yourself slightly damp.

  5. Step 5

    Gently rub a rich lotion into your damp skin. Again pay special attention to the areas that tend to get drier. Now you have exfoliated your skin and it wil glow.

Tips & Warnings
  • Avoid using a scrub that has pits in it that will rip the skin.
