Exfoliating is an important step in any skincare routine as it helps to remove dead skin cells and improve the overall appearance and texture of the skin. While there are many exfoliant products on the market, some people prefer to use natural body care products for their non-toxic properties.

Natural exfoliants, such as sugar, salt, and coffee, are gentle on the skin and can be just as effective as synthetic exfoliants at removing dead skin cells. At Re{me}dy, we curate a selection of Natural Body Scrubs, designed to exfoliate and moisturize without the use of synthetic chemicals, making them a safer choice for both you and the environment.

One of the benefits of using natural exfoliants is that they can be customized to suit your specific skin needs too. They can be combined with essential oils or other natural ingredients to create a personalized scrub. Our Upcycled Coffee Scrub, for example, has gentle exfoliating properties and also has hydrating properties that can nourish and moisturize the skin. Natural exfoliants can be just as effective as synthetic ones at removing dead skin cells and improving the overall appearance and texture of the skin

To exfoliate using a natural body care product, you can follow these steps;

1) Start by choosing a natural exfoliant, such as sugar, salt, oatmeal, or baking soda. You can use the exfoliant on its own or mix it with other natural ingredients, such as oils or herbs, to create a personalized scrub.

2) Next, wet your skin with warm water to open up your pores and make it easier to exfoliate. Then, apply the exfoliant to your skin using circular motions, being careful to be gentle and avoid using too much pressure to prevent irritation.

3) Rinse off the exfoliant with warm water and follow up with a moisturizer to keep your skin hydrated. Remember to be gentle when exfoliating and not to overdo it, as over-exfoliating can damage the skin and lead to irritation, dryness, and redness. It's also a good idea to test a small patch of skin before using an exfoliant product to make sure you're not allergic to any of the ingredients.

In summary, exfoliating with natural body care products can be a gentle and effective way to improve the appearance and texture of your skin. By using natural exfoliants, you can also avoid exposing your skin to synthetic chemicals and help to protect the environment. Checkout our range of Natural Body Scrubs here.
