Body Scrubs for Natural Beauty
There are number of Beauty Products in the market but Body Scrubs are very
essential among them because they help to remove dead cells from your body
and keeps them smooth and fresh looking. Normally skin sheds dead cells
every day but after the age of 35, the dead cells that make up the outer
layer of your skin are not shed as rapidly as when you were younger. As dead
cells accumulate, they make your skin look dull and dry and you lose the
healthy, radiant look that characterizes youthful skin.
You can improve the appearance of your skin by regularly removing the top
layer of dead skin cells, a process called exfoliation. Exfoliation is
accomplished by using grainy scrubs that physically remove dead cells
through gentle abrasion, or fruit-enzyme skin peels or alpha-hydroxy acid
skin peels, which dissolve the top layer of dead skin cells.
• Natural Scrubs: Natural scrubs are made from finely ground fibrous
plant material such as oatmeal, corn meal, almonds, and apricot kernels. Be
cautious when using grainy scrubs, because many are too harsh to use on the
delicate skin of your face.
• Fruit Enzyme Skin Peels: Fruit-enzyme peels are made from fruit or
vegetable enzymes that exfoliate the skin in approximately 20 minutes
without scrubbing. Dead skin cells are composed primarily of protein, and
enzyme peels digest the dead skin cells on the surface of the skin without
harming new cell growth. Enzyme peels are gentle exfoliators and leave skin
noticeably smoother and softer after only one treatment.
• Alpha Hydroxy Acid Skin Peels: Alpha-hydroxy acids are natural
exfoliators derived from foods such as citrus fruits (citric acid), sour
milk (lactic acid), grapes (tartaric acid), sugar cane (glycolic acid), and
apples (malic acid). Alpha-hydroxy acids improve skin texture and color,
reduce fine lines and age spots, and make pores appear smaller. Although you
will usually notice smoother skin after the first treatment, you'll need to
use alphahydroxy acids on a regular basis for two months or longer to see a
significant improvement in skin texture and diminishment of fine lines.
