"A gamage facial scrub, it's a little different and almost, it's a little messier to use than your traditional facial scrubs. It's very thick in consistency, if you could see and it's creamy. And you just want to use a very light application, but you take your fingers and you kind of warm it up a little bit before applying it, and you want to spread it a very thin layer across the entire face and again, it's a wet product but as it dries, it only takes a few minutes to dry. And as it dries, you're going to use your fingertips to gently sloughed off the product. So, the product is going to be dried in just a minute. And as it dries, you're going to gently use your fingertips to remove the excess and in doing so, it's going to feel kind of like dryer razor shavings to your client, but that is going to remove any flakiness, dryness, basically the top surface layers of our skin, our pretty much dead skin cells anyway. So by using your product like this, it's really going to soften and just give you that baby soft feeling that most of us are striving to get. So I'm just going to let it, kind of sit up for a few minutes and you just want to kind of feel around and make sure its not tacky, cause if it's still tacky it's still drying. And we want to make sure it's nice and dry so that we can really get a good exfoliation out of the product and on her skin. So, as this product dries, it usually takes about two minutes or so, we'll just wait a few minutes."
