What is a body scrub?
Body exfoliation is a treatment that consists of removing dead cells that accumulate on the surface of the skin. Therefore, this process aims to promote cell renewal, activate microcirculation and drainage, improve the appearance and oxygenate the dermis. In short, it serves to achieve more beautiful, luminous, homogeneous and smooth skin.
Usage and application
This body peeling technique can be performed both in winter and summer. And depending on your skin type and the specific product used, you can exfoliate two to three times a week. A good way to apply it is in the shower, on wet skin, with a mitten or with your own hands. Smooth movements should be made, in a circular and ascending direction. And at the end of the treatment, rinse with warm water and finish with colder water.
This process is not painful since it consists of exfoliating the most superficial layer of the skin to eliminate stretch marks, scars, acne or any type of imperfections.
