Body exfoliation and whitening

Body scrub

The skin is the first line of defense for humans, as it prevents the skin from transmitting germs from the external environment to the human body, so the skin cells are constantly renewed to form new cells. Body Exfoliation is the process of removing dead skin cells accumulated on the surface of the body. The accumulation of dead skin cells in the clogging of body pores and the appearance of symptoms of premature aging. ^[1]

Benefits of a body scrub

Regular body exfoliation adds freshness to the body, flattens the body with a beautiful luster and whiteness, and unifies the color of the body, the unified body color, free of fat and impurities, is one of the characteristics of a beautiful woman, and on the other hand, peeling stimulates blood circulation and speeds up the regeneration of skin cells. ^[2]

Body peeling method

Contrary to popular thinking, body peeling is a simple and uncomplicated process, and at the end of the peeling process the body will be fresh and healthy, free from allergies, irritation or red spots. To exfoliate the body, we need:

• Peeling cream, you should buy peeling cream from the pharmacy and it should be noted that there are some creams that may harm the skin and cause adverse results, as there are some creams contain chemicals harmful to the skin and may cause allergies and irritation of the skin. On the other hand, a peeling cream can be prepared using natural materials such as lemon and honey, oats, milk, olive oil, coffee and many materials found at home.
• A soft loofah, used to cleanse the dry body before starting the peeling process, and prepare the body for exfoliation, where the body is gently rubbed.
• A pumice stone, to get rid of the hardened body skin on the heel of the foot, it is recommended to use a pumice stone.
• Moisturizing body cream, where the moisturizing cream is used after the peeling process is completed; Because body exfoliation causes the skin to dry out somewhat. ^{[1] [3]}

The number of times of peeling

In general, the body should be peeled twice a week, and the number of times it depends on several factors, the most important of which are:

• The nature of the body; Sensitive skin needs less peeling, unlike oily skin, which needs peeling relatively more.

• Rub hard: You must rub the peeling lotion on your face, to make sure that it penetrates into the skin, but it is soft and gentle, because rubbing the skin severely affects it negatively.
