What is skin exfoliation?

Most of us love a hot, steamy shower, but finding the perfect temperature is the first step to a great body cleanse. Heat helps to loosen the natural oils that build up in pores, leaving your skin healthy and clear. However too much heat tends to dry your skin out, so the key is turning the heat down just a little – it’ll still be warm and soothing, but kinder to your skin 

What’s the best body scrub tool? Body pouf, loofah, exfoliating gloves or your hands? Well, poufs, gloves and loofahs don’t always dry properly, causing bacteria to grow – not ideal for a deep cleanse. So help your skin stay happy by replacing them more often, or using your hands instead.

You might think a thorough body cleanse means a long one, but a shower should only take about 5-10 minutes. Long showers can strip your skin of moisture, leaving it dry and irritated. Keep it quick, and your skin will glow

A deep cleanse means making sure nothing gets in the way of your skin’s natural glow. A gentle body exfoliant will help to clear the old skin cells that hide it away – but even the best exfoliator won’t do the job if not used properly. Lightly massage (don’t ruthlessly scrub!) your skin in circular motions with one of our exfoliating products, like our range of exfoliating body polishes for a soft and radiant finish

When you’re in a rush, it’s easy to miss the areas that need the deepest cleanse. Caring for every inch of your body will leave you feeling your freshest: especially small areas, like your underarms (they collect the most sweat and oils) 

The perfect finish to your new shower routine? Cleansing your face. The shower steam won’t just have helped to clear the pores on your body: it’ll work wonders on loosening your facial skin oils and sebum. Simply wash them away as a final step for beautifully clear, glowing skin – from head to toe
