Question
I’m a little confused about body exfoliants. Why use them? Do they actually do anything? Which one is the best to use on the body? And how do I use them?

Answer
I hope I can assist in clearing up your confusion. Firstly, you need to exfoliate your body twice a week (or once a week if you have dry skin) not only makes your skin look better, it can be a soul reviver that releases emotional and physical tension.
There are many tools for buffing away dead skin and stimulate blood circulation. These include:
The dry buff: before showering or bathing, gently brush your body with a body brush or a damp loofah.
Scrub creams: They can be used before you get wet, or on damp skin. To avoid wasting any precious product (or water), turn off the shower while you apply it.
Salt and oil: Sea salt and olive oil make a great body scrub for young skin.
Beauty bars: stroke your body with the whole bar.
