Homemade Exfoliators

Homemade exfoliators are beneficial as they are without any chemicals. You know what has gone into it and they are 100% natural and extremely safe for your skin. They are also cheaper, quick and easy to make.

Facial exfoliators are generally very easy to make and use. They can be prepared using ingredients that are in the fridge or kitchen shelf. In addition, they are less expensive than the products that can be bought at stores. Try these natural and homemade exfoliators to keep your skin looking healthy.

• A paste of oatmeal and water makes a good facial scrub.

• Sea salt can be rubbed on skin.

• Take baking soda and water in equal proportions and make a mixture. Rub the mixture on your skin.

• Add some sugar in olive oil. Then use this mixture as a scrub on the face.

• Take eight to ten ripe or over-ripe strawberries in a mixing bowl. Squash the strawberries until they become soft and mushy. Afterwards mix 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 1 teaspoon of coarse salt until you have a paste. Later on, massage the paste onto your body, focusing on any dry or dull looking skin areas. Rub well and then rinse off with warm water. Your skin will feel instantly softer, smoother and shinier.

• Take some sugar and mix it with extra virgin olive oil. Scrub it on your skin and after some time rinse it off.

• The sugar and water solution is the most simple exfoliator treatment. First soak your face with a warm flannel for a few minutes, before applying the sugar and water solution, and gently massage into your skin before rinsing off. This will do the essential job of gently removing dead skin cells and dirt from your skin, combating problems such as spots and acne.

• Another alternative to sugar is sea salt. Sugar is great as a facial exfoliator; while sea salt is a little more abrasive and can be used over the entire body, pay attention to tough areas such as knees and elbows.

• One of the best things you can do to make sure the quality of your homemade exfoliators work is to make sure that you are getting enough exercise. This will help you to sweat more and enhance the oxygen in your skin. This is a natural way to exfoliate your skin.

• You should also ensure that you are drinking enough water every day, so that you will not become dehydrated, which will give your skin a blotchy look. This will remove the skin of natural oils and could cause more damage to your skin.

These are the natural ways to exfoliate your skin, which makes the homemade exfoliators more effective.
