Exfoliating of your skin, both face and body, is essential. One of the many benefits is improving its texture. Dead and dull skin cells often make fine lines, wrinkles and dry skin stand out even more, while scrubs remove it. If you experience blackheads, whiteheads or breakouts, exfoliating your skin will help keep pores clean and unclogged. If you have layers of dead skin piled up, the skin care product might not be able to penetrate your skin, so it’s necessary to make use of skin care products. Besides, if you are going to use spray tans or cream tanning lotions, exfoliating is also essential.

Now that we found out all the benefits of exfoliating, it’s time to find a perfect exfoliator, and here I’d advise you a sugar scrub. Sugar is more delicate than sea salt, so it won’t irritate the skin so much, and this is a great idea for dry skin. A sugar scrub with your favorite smell and healthy ingredients is pretty easy to make yourself, so today I’m sharing some of the best sugar scrub recipes, I hope you’ll find something for yourself!
