Bath And Body
Bathroom Must Haves For A Softer Skin:
As well as a chance to cleanse your body, bath – shower time is the perfect opportunity to pamper and polish your skin, and indulge in some beauty treats.
Body Lotions And Oils: These can seal moisture into your skin, making it soft and smooth. Especially concentrate them on drier areas such as feet, elbows and knees. Oilier and normal skins benefit from lotions, while oils and creams suit drier skins.
Exfoliating Scrubs: These help combat the rough patches and blackheads that can appear on your skin. Use once or twice a week in the bath or shower, rinsing away the excess with clear warm water.
Pumice Stone: These are made from very porous volcanic rock, and work best if you lather up with soap before rubbing at hardened areas of skin in a circular motion. Don’t rub too fiercely or else you’ll make the skin sore. A little and often is best.
Loofah Or Back-Brush: Loofahs are useful exfoliators, and their length makes them great for scrubbing difficult-to-reach areas like the back. They’re actually the pod of an Egyptian plant and need a bit of care if they’re to last. Rinse and drain them thoroughly after use to stop them going black and mouldy. Avoid rinsing them in vinegar and lemon juice as this can be too harsh for these once living things. Back-brushes are easier to care for; you simply rinse them in cool water after use and leave them to dry.
