Face Vs. Body Exfoliators: 4 Tips
There is a difference between exfoliating your face and body for oily skin, and for all skin types. Here at LUV SCRUB, we are all about exfoliation. Not only does it clear away dead skin cells, but it leaves you with a clean and gorgeous glow. Read on to learn more about how to exfoliate skin naturally to get your best skin yet.
1. Use toners on your face, not your body
An important step in your facial skincare routine may include a toner. A toner is a lightweight formula, often applied with a cotton pad and water, that uses chemicals to remove any irritants on the face. This can easily lead to a glowy complexion. However, these exfoliators are best kept on the face and not the body. It’s also considered best practice not to use them every day.
2. Use exfoliating brushes on your body, not your face
Another easy way to exfoliate your body is a dry brush. A dry brush usually has a long handle and coarse bristles. You can even hang it in your shower for regular use. Since it is so harsh, it is best used only a few times a week, and only on your body so you don’t irritate your face. You can use a dry brush and an african exfoliating net together, but make sure to not use the dry brush every day.
3. Use LUV SCRUB on your body, not your face
When it comes to using your LUV SCRUB, you may think the more the better. While it’s true that it can be used daily on your body to cleanse and exfoliate, you should only use it for your body, not your face. Your african net sponge is specially formatted with the highest quality mesh to make sure that it removes dead skin cells from your body, but the texture is not recommended for your face.
4. Use sugar scrubs on your body, not your face
While exfoliating your body, you can even use a higher duty sugar or salt scrub that contains thick grains to maximize the impact. Oftentimes, these body exfoliators are formulated to include scents and other irritants that may be effective on your body, but could potentially irritate your body. Keep the heavy-duty exfoliating scrubs to your body and use a moisturizer after to seal in moisturizer for the best glow. A body exfoliator is great for an all-around glow and can be used with your african sponge, but keep it off your face.
Exfoliation can be a great useful tool to help contribute to your overall glow. There are many beauty tools and tricks that can help keep you glowing year-round. Make sure you stick to these rules on which exfoliants to use on your face or your body, and you’ll be glowing in no time.
