The Pouf; The Ultimate Exfoliant



I'm sure we have all hear of a "Pouf" before, right? A Bath pouf is a common household addition to a wash cloth and with good reason!

The mesh pouf available at your local Walmart, Walgreens, etc. is cheap and effective when it comes to exfoliation. Many women just exfoliate their faces using scrubs or little exfoliating pads, while they should also be exfoliating the rest of their bodies.

Exfoliating scrubs dead dead, excess oil and dirt off the skin so that new, fresh skin cells can emerge. It also unplugs pores, so bye-bye acne! By exfoliating, you lessen acne, and fine lines...not to mention being squeaky clean! Exfoliating will allow your skin to be soft and supple and oh-so healthy.

My Suggestions: For Dry Skin... Exfoliate lightly every other day. Apply a heavy moisturizer (body creams are heavier than body lotions) after you get out of the shower and the next morning after exfoliating. For skin that tends to be oily... Exfoliate gently every day. Apply a light moisturizer (such as Aloe) after you get out of the shower each day. For Combination Skin... Exfoliate very lightly each day, followed by a light to heavy moisturizer depending on how oily/dry your skin is.

Take Care,

Crystal
