Quick Fix Tip

7/3/2014

 
Skin feeling a little dull and blah?  A little exfoliation might be all you need to brighten things up.  Using a gentle scrub at least once a week will sweep away dead skin cells and improve circulation to cheeks a rosy glow.  Just be sure to choose a scrub that is finely milled, like natural pumice, for example. Ground up fruit pits or oatmeal can be fairly coarse and either scratchy or simply not very effective.  I also recommend avoiding plastic micro-beads.  Micro-beads were all the rage for many years but not only do they not work very well to slough skin, they're also polluting our waterways and being eaten by fish (ugh).

Worried about scrubbing your sensitive skin?  Don't. Even sensitive skin can tolerate a bit of scrubbing as long as you don't press too hard.  Rember to be gentle.  Let the product do the work as you gently move your fingers in a circular motion while applying virtually no pressure.  Sensitive types may also want to avoid scrubs containing glycolic acid as they may sting you.

A couple of my faves:
Laboratoire Remède Sweep
Bora Lea Skin Therapy Exfoliating Micro Scrub ...Obv!

If buying another skincare product isn't an option, the good old fashioned wash cl
oth works pretty well too and is definitely better than nothing.  Just be sure to use a clean one each time so you don't spread bacteria and cause a break out.
