... And you think, gosh, I should really do a body scrub 'cause my skin feels a bit scaly and rough and some exfoliation would be a splendid thing to do to get me soft and lovely again and, ohgoodLORD look at those tan lines on my ankles! How was I walking around today like that and NOBODY TOLD ME? I feel like a stripy little fool, I feel like a rough, lizard-esque little fiend!... and y'know, that kind of caper, here's the Tip of The Century.
When you do a body scrub, step away from the shower stream.
Either scrub up before you even turn those taps on, or wash your body, turn off the taps, step back, scrub and scrub in circles, then rinse it off, but do SOMETHING sans water, because if you do the scrub when your body is under the shower, you may as well coat it in sandpaper for all the good it will do you and that rough skin. If you get a body scrub in a salon, you are dry when it happens. And the same rolls at the homestead, fruits. Just minus the laying on the table and the Enya part.
My favourite scrub right now is the Origins Incredible Spreadable 'calm to your senses' scrub: Like all the Origin scrubs it has olive oil to hydrate and white and brown sugars (hard but soft at the same time) to get rid of dead skin cells, and oh, the scent...
Which scrub do you like?
