I also would recommend if you’re going to be doing it on the lower back, belly or anywhere where the skin is oily, don’t expect it to last as long as the feet and hand. There’s no way that the skin will penetrate as much as you know and also it’s exfoliating later on, it’s oilier and that’s why it doesn’t last as long the skin on your chest, your shoulder or your lower back is not really recommended because it doesn’t last as long. On behalf of expertvillage.com I’d like to thank you. "
