Kick Off To Summer Volume II - Scrubs

I have already given you tips on how to self tan and explained the different  types of self tanner in Kick Off To Summer Volume I. 

Now it's time for all things scrub - why, when, where, how to, and what to use. 


WHY SHOULD YOU USE A SCRUB?
Everyone should be using a body scrub, regardless of your skin type. Scrubs remove dead skin cells and will leave your skin softer and smoother. Scrubs can also help prevent ingrown hairs, body acne, and after scrubbing your body moisturizer will be more effective. 


WHEN SHOULD YOU USE A BODY SCRUB?
Everyone should be using a body scrub at least once a week. Unless you have extremely sensitive skin, you can scrub two to three times a week, but try not to ever go over four times a week. 


WHERE SHOULD YOU USE A BODY SCRUB? 
This answer isn't as obvious as it seems! You can, of course, use a scrub in the shower (and should always use one before shaving). If your skin is very dry or flaky, you can also use your scrub on dry skin before you get in the shower.


HOW SHOULD YOU USE A BODY SCRUB? 
The most effective way to apply your body scrub in circular motions. Scrubbing back and forth can be too abrasive. If you use your scrub in the shower, be careful not to get any water in the scrub container. After your shower, make sure you apply a body moisturizer!


WHAT SCRUBS SHOULD YOU USE?
Different types of scrubs work for different types of skin. 

Usually, salt scrubs can be intensive and abrasive - they will really soften your skin! Just make sure not to use one right after shaving or waxing, as this will be irritating. 

Sugar scrubs tend to be more gentle than salt scrubs. They are effective, yet okay for sensitive skin. 

Don't forget the rest of your body - get a scrub for your hands, lips, and feet!
