How do you exfolite your skin?

How do most of you do it? Do you just apply the exfolite pad to your skin and rub it in circles for several minutes or do you use the pad? Which is the most effective way?How do you exfolite your skin?
I use different cream exfoliants. They're not very expensive, depending on what you want. You can get harsh ones, or easy ones for sensitive skin. I just apply it with my fingers and rub in a circular motion. Also, a really great way to scrub away dead skin is in the shower with a shower puff all over.


Hope this helps!!


xxHow do you exfolite your skin?
Well different products have different techniques and ways of doing it. I can tell you how to use the Artistry microdermbrasion system on your face because thats the one i've been using for the past 3 years.





There鈥檚 a reason microdermabrasion treatments originated in the dermatologist鈥檚 office. The jagged aluminum crystals it requires can cause microscopic tears in tender skin, if improperly applied. Artistry skin care believes in powerful but gentle beauty. That鈥檚 why the Artistry Microdermabrasion System was developed. This at-home alternative provides professional-grade results and glowing skin. The Microdermabrasion System consists of Artistry Polishing Scrub, MicroExfoliation Cloth, and Skin Refinishing Lotion.





The Artistry Microdermabrasion System works as such.


It comes in a 3 step process.


1. Put the Polishing Scrub on the MicroExfoliation Cloth, and scrub gently on your facial skin. This will allow the cloth to pick up the dirt, excess makeup, and dead skin cells as you scrub.


2. Rinse off all the Polishing scrub off your face and pat dry with a towel.


3. Finish off by putting a Lifting Skin refinishing Lotion. This will not only give nutrients to your facial skin but also cause a lift in your skin cells, so that it will give you a nice smooth and unwrinkly skinned look.





As for other products, most of them don't even work that well. The dead skin cells arn't taken away and all those other brands just give you a sensation that your skin is clear but all it did was clean the surface of your skin and not the dirt in the pores of your skin.





What i tell you is through knowledge and experience. I was introduced to this product and i loved the line so i haven't stopped using it. I usually order all my products online through this store called Over and Beyond.





As for when to exfoliate, i usually do once every two weeks for winter months, cause its so dry, and once a week during the summer months





But yup i hope this helps!
Twice a week I use an aspirin mask.





Take three non-coated aspirins and on a small plate sprinkle a little bit of water onto them to make them start dissolving. Add two squirts of honey and mix. Apply this on your face and leave it for 10 minutes. Wash off with warm water. Take this time to GENTLY scrub your face.





Done!


Its really nice and makes your skin look really healthy. Not to mention cheaper than scrubbing pads.





Good luck!
The simple way? I use St. Ives- basically just pick the scrub that fits you best. It's very affordable as well. Good luck!
