Do You Regularly Use a Body Scrub/ Exfoliator?  email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 99/100. wondericequeen (4427)   ranked 2 out of 1,688 in beauty 5 years ago

Do you regularly use a body scrub or exfoliator? I do, or I should say I try to do it around once a week. But I have often noticed that I am less willing to spend time rubbing the scrub on my body when it's winter time. It's just too chilly here (we don't have heaters!). What about you? Do you use one? Or do you think it's not really necessary?

I think you should do this twice a week. It would damage your skin if you do it to excessively. At the end you'll get stretch marks if you do it too often. Be sure to be gentle to your sin once in a while. Sensitive areas too shouldn't be treated with scrubing always. It could ruin the upper layer of your skin that fights of bacteria.

I do it once a week only because my skin is rather sensitive and I would use a more natural brand so it doesn't irritate my skin so much! But I am happy every time after I use it, I feel like my skin can breathe again, what a wonderful feeling!

I'd be lost without my exfoliators! It's hot here almost year round, so you have to really take care of your skin or it will look a wreck. Most days I use one of those exfoliating scrub puffs in the shower and that takes care of dead skin cells and such that tend to build up and make the skin look lined and old.

Then about once a week or so, I made a homemade mix of epsom salts, water and body lotion (to a paste consistency). That works to rejuvenate the skin on legs and elbows. I have used commercial exfoliators from Saint Ives and others like Estee Lauder. They work very well. Of course, the more expensive Estee Lauder is far better. But, the homemade variety works in a pinch!

Nice! I am diligent to use a body exfoliator most of the time but when it's winter I would be like "NO that's too cold!". I used Loreal Exfotonic before and it works really well because it contains AHA. Currently, I am moving onto a more natural brand and see how it goes.

I don't think it is actually necessary, but sometimes I use it, as you say, in the summertime just for fun. Once in a great while I make my own from things like oatmeal, brown sugar, cinnamon and organic honey or sometimes grapefruit and sea salt with a little olive oil. For my face, I only use Rachel Perry's Peach & Papaya scrub and it nice to use other places, too.

I love grapefruit! It's great for detoxifying the lessen the extra water content in the body! I love the scent! Sometimes I would mix my grapefruit essential oil with my body scrub just to get a dose of it.

Hello wondericequeen,

I was *laughs* but not now anymore! You know what I mean...It is lucky for me to be able to take my daily shower as my baby is always scream for my attention! But I love to scrub once a while whenever I have time to do it. Well, when my husband comes home, I will ask him to take care of the baby and I will go to pamper myself. I have been denied my right for the last 8 months! Ha Ha Ha!


myLot reputation of 99/100. wondericequeen (4427)   ranked 2 out of 1,688 in beauty  5 years ago

Right! You should ask your husband to help *laughs*. At least you can get a decent shower!

My skin is EXTREMELY dry. Sometimes I avoid using soaps even, leave alone body scrubs. I use body scrubs very rarely.

I use a body scrub 2-3 times a week. I like The Body Shop Body Scrubs especially the coconut, cocoa butter and mango ones. I like my skin to feel soft and smoothe and find that the body lotions rub into my skin better if it is exfoliated.
