Exfoliating is super important for all skin types. Exfoliation refers to the removal of dead skin cells built up on the surface of the skin that can cause rough texture and a dulled complexion. It can also lead to clogged pores, acne and can even make a person look older. By removing dead skin cells from the skin’s surface you're allowing new and healthy ones to regenerate, which can help improve your complexion. Here are the many benefits of exfoliating. Benefits Of Exfoliating Fades away dark spots, scars, stretch marks Draws out impurities from the pores Smooths and softens the skin Boosts blood circulation Strengthens skin tissue Helps prevent ingrown hairs Boosts collagen production How To Exfoliate ? There's different ways to exfoliate, one of the most common is by using scrubs. Scrubs are safe as long as you are using them the right way. You want to be gentle especially on more sensitive areas like your face to prevent damaging the skin. There’s different types of scrubs, some are gentle enough for sensitive skin and there are others more abrasive for rough skin. Here are the two commonly used in skin care. Sugar Scrubs Sugar scrubs are commonly used on sensitive skin because the particles are small and round and won’t irritate or damage the skin in any way if used correctly. Sugar contains nutrients like calcium, iron, magnesium and potassium, which helps replenish the skin. It also works as a humectant because it pulls moisture from the air into the skin. If you’re looking for an amazing spa-like body scrub treatment that eliminates dead skin cells while softening, healing and adding glow to the skin, we recommend our Veenourish Glow Sugar Scrub that is mixed with natural oils and contains no preservatives or chemicals of any kind. Salt Scrubs Salts scrubs are used on rough skin because they contain larger particles and sharper edges and can provide a deeper exfoliation. And for this reason they are not recommended to use on the face but rather in rougher parts of the body like elbows, knees, legs and feet. Salt scrubs have other benefits for the skin besides removing dead skin cells. They are packed with minerals like calcium, magnesium, potassium, copper and iron and these minerals help detoxify the skin and even works as a muscle relaxant. Salt also helps stimulate circulation and helps reduce inflammation. Our Veenourish Scrubs are completely natural. No preservatives or chemicals are added. To use these scrubs you just have to massage them on your wet skin for 30 seconds, then rinse off and repeat 2-3 times a week. If you're gentle you should achieve amazing results immediately.
