Natural Scrubs

Natural exfoliants have the function of leaving the skin on the body and face always clean, beautiful and with a healthy appearance.

What is exfoliation?

Exfoliation is a cleansing method to rid the skin of dirt (dead cells).

But it is not enough just to perform this procedure to have healthy and smooth skin. After the process, it is necessary to hydrate the skin and protect it from environmental aggressors, such as the sun, for example.

How to exfoliate?

Every exfoliation is a process of maintaining the skin’s health. But it is not necessary for it to happen daily.

And, much less forcefully, because it can hurt the skin. The most recommended are two to three exfoliations per week.

Homemade body scrubs:

• Coffee grounds: helps to smooth cellulite. After showering, apply on wet skin in areas where there is cellulite.

• Coarse salt + cooking vegetable oil or olive oil: 3 to 4 tablespoons of coarse salt with half a glass of oil or olive oil. Mix everything and apply on clean body.
• Honey + sugar: 4 spoons of honey with 3 or 4 spoons of sugar. Mix well and apply to clean wet body.
