Exfoliate your body

If you want your skin to look healthy and radiant, exfoliate regularly. By removing the top layer of dead epidermis cells, you will make your skin appear smoother and less wrinkled.

1. Starting at the soles of your feet and working your way up your body brush off any dry skin with a loofah or a body exfoliating brush. Do this before bathing or showering.

2. Once your body is thoroughly wet apply some exfoliating cleanser to your loofah of exfoliating brush.

3. Scrub your body with it, using gentle, circular motions.

4. Opt for grainy types of cleansers to clean the skin, rather than soap. The grainy texture exfoliates the skin better taking off all dry skin.

5. Use a face cloth for mild exfoliation.

6. Rub rough spots, such as heels, with a rough stone/pebble.

7. Regular exfoliating is extremely drying to the skin and will do more harm than good unless the skin is rehydrated with lotions.

8. Apply moisturiser to your body before it is fully dry. Use a body moisturiser at least once every day.

Tip. Make your own exfoliating cleanser, if you prefer. Mix sea salt, olive oil and lemon juice together, or mix ground almonds and powdered milk. The combinations are endless.
