Exfoliating your skin is very important to keep it looking fresh, healthy, and vibrant. You should really try to regularly exfoliate at least once a week, though twice a week would be even better.

When you exfoliate, you remove all the dead skin cells that collect on the surface of the skin. These dead skin cells naturally build up and make your skin look dull, gray and lifeless. Dead skin cells can also collect inside your pores, causing blemishes, enlarged pores, and blackheads.

Most people think of scrubbing their skin when they exfoliate. This is mechanical exfoliation because the scrub contains gritty compounds that bump off dead skin cells and smooth the skin. This is mechanical exfoliation.

There's another form of exfoliation, called chemical exfoliation that uses particular chemicals or enzymes to dissolve dead skin cells naturally. Chemical exfoliation is becoming more popular, especially for people that have sensitive skin or rosacea that cannot take even the light abrasive action of a scrub.

When you exfoliate it's important to remember these tips:

Always be gentle with your skin. Never exfoliate more than 3 times a week. Apply products in upward, outward motions, starting on your chin. Follow the instructions on the bottle and don't exfoliate longer than directed. Don't exfoliate with scrubs if your skin is severely blemished, damaged, or you have a rash.

Your skin should flush a small amount after exfoliating. This is the oxygen rushing into the blood vessels inside your facial skin, stimulating your skin cells to divide. In doing this, exfoliation quickens the rate at which your skin cells are created and sloughed off. This action will lighten your skin's appearance, help to fade age spots and scars, and take years off your complexion.

L'Bri Pure n' Natural offers three effective exfoliators that work specifically with different skin types to help you get the most from your exfoliating experience.

The Exfoliating Facial and Body Scrub is a wonderful gritty scrub that uses crushed almonds and powdered walnut shell to gently exfoliate your skin. Unlike most scrubs that use harsh microbeads or damaging apricot kernels, L'Bri's scrub will not roughly abrade your skin.

Because of its texture, this scrub is easier to use in the shower and while you're there, try using it on your whole body for smoother, softer skin everywhere!

If scrubs are not your thing, then you'll love L'Bri's Rejuvenating Enzyme Facial Peel. This natural chemical exfoliator uses the concentrated enzymes found in unripened papaya fruit to dissolve dead skin cells and brighten your skin. Extremely blemished skin types, as well as those suffering from rosacea can use this gentle peel without worry of irritation.

The calming scent of pineapple will send you to the Caribbean every time you treat yourself to this invigorating peel.

Looking for a multipurpose skin care product? It's always nice to get the most bang for your buck and L'Bri's Facial Masque can do much more for your skin than just exfoliate. This skin firming masque tightens and tones the muscles of the face while stimulating and exfoliating your skin.

Enjoy a temporarily lifted, firmer, brighter complexion that feels baby soft for days.

No matter your age, skin type, or skin issues, you will always get the best results from your skin care routine by regularly exfoliating. Get into the habit of using gentle, effective exfoliating products each week and feel your skin become touchably soft, visibly smooth, and amazingly fresh and vibrant once again.
