Gentle Home Exfoliation

Many of us want to be physically healthy going to the gym or training in our own houses but fail to attach the same importance to our skin care. Skin is also our largest organ , it constantly eliminates toxins from the body through perspiration and helps in regulating the temperature of our body. Millions of pores compose it, hundreds of sebaceous glands and a huge number of sweat glands are there for these two important jobs.

The skin absorbs many of the substances with which it comes into contact, which means it is thus especially important to use only natural, gentle ingredients whenever possible. Our skin is an important organ that surely deserves a little bit more care than the mere topical application of creams and lotions.

A healthy skin has much a direct relation with the life style we have and what we eat and drink. Although, problems like scars, aging wrinkles, age spots, stretch marks, skin that looks dull and lifeless are the result of our diary routine which exposes our skin to external factors like sun, wind, and contamination.

Also dirt and dust particles that hide in the pores of the skin clog sweat and sebaceous glands making these skin problems. A proper cleansing not only removes all the dust, dirt and make-up you accumulate during the day, also stops the oil-secreting sebaceous glands from getting clogged.

Exfoliation

Using an exfoliator to buff away dead skin cells and impurities should be the first step in your skin care regime. Most exfoliators contain natural ingredients such as oatmeal, cornmeal, almond meal, grapefruit oils and salt minerals to effectively slough off dull, flaky skin. Once the old skin is removed, a layer of new, supple, fresh looking skin is exposed underneath.

Severe exfoliating methods include chemical peels and micro-dermabrasion treatments, but gentle exfoliating can be performed by you, right in your own bathroom. Gentle daily exfoliating is the vital step in your skin care regime.

There are various different exfoliators for you to choose from. Common types include exfoliating mud masks, micro-bead face scrub, peeling masks, exfoliating gels and lotions and exfoliating cloths and gloves. Exfoliators can be used on daily basis. However, keeping your skin moisturized after removal of dead skin is very important. If you use facial toner it can be applied directly after cleansing followed by your moisturizer.

As with anything that touches the skin, be careful when using any skin care products, as you could have an allergic reaction to even the natural ingredients they contain. Note the ingredients listed above, and if you are allergic to any of them, it would be wise to avoid the products containing them.

If you notice any uncomfortable tingling or redness on your skin, you may be having an allergic reaction. If this occurs, rinse your skin thoroughly with warm water and avoid that product in the future; you may be allergic to something in it. Use common sense when using any skin care products, and remember that less is always more when it comes to essential oils.

Exfoliating Tips

Never rub soap, lotions, oils or any other exfoliating mixture into your face. Your facial skin is very thin and sensitive. Rubbing pushes the skin upwards, downwards and side to side loosening it and causing wrinkles. Dabbing is a safer and more effective way to apply or rinse exfoliating mixtures.

Never use hot water on your face. Hot water can burn the skin and dry it out very quickly. Using lukewarm to cool water to rinse your face will leave your skin feeling fresh and will clear any clogged pores.

Exfoliating is most effective in the evening when the skin has had a chance to adapt to the atmosphere. In the morning, your skin can be stiff. Exfoliating will also feel more rewarding after a long day of work.

Regardless of when you exfoliate, you will have to perform it more in the summer then in the winter. In the summer skin is sweaty; which causes dead skin cells to stick around.

Exfoliation can be done in the shower each morning. Just put your exfoliating scrub or exfoliating cloths in your shower caddy and scrub your face just before you get out of the shower.

Men naturally exfoliate their faces every time they shave. This rids their face of dead or dry skin cells and keeps their skin younger-looking for longer.

* After you exfoliate always follow with moisturizer.

Exfoliators work well on oily skin. However, when an exfoliator is applied to dry skin you must be extra diligent with your moisturizing. With dry skin a special re-hydration program must be followed directly after you exfoliate in order to “lock in” moisture.

How often to exfoliate:

If you have normal skin, you can use a gentle exfoliator daily.

If you have oily skin, exfoliate 4 times per week.

If you have dry skin, exfoliate 1 per week.

If you have combination skin, exfoliate 4 or 5 times per week.

If you have sensitive skin, exfoliate only once or twice (at most) per week
