How to Exfoliate the Back

"Hi my name is Anton and I’m here on behalf of ExpertVillage.com and today I’m going to be demonstrating exfoliating the back.

I’m just working it in a circular motion with average pressure, the back is a larger surface so you can use a little more pressure without damaging the skin.
