Don’t Forget To Exfoliate!

As we age, exfoliation is vital for smooth, supple, healthy skin; however it is the one step that is commonly skipped in a skincare routine

What does exfoliating do?
When skin is exfoliated, it loosens, softens & sloughs off dry dead skin cells.  Our skin continually exfoliates itself, a naturally occurring process that slows down as we age. Exfoliating is your body’s way of regenerating new cells.  There are products and ways to accelerate this process to keep your skin soft, supple and glowing.

Oatmeal Soap
Oatmeal is an amazing thing!  It’s good for our bodies inside and out.  Oatmeal soap is a wonderful moisturizer and exfoliater.  It gently rids your body of dead skin while soothing dry itchy skin.  Here is a great article that goes into detail the benefits of Oatmeal Soap at Livestrong.

Ayate
Ayate washcloths are made from loosely woven fibers of the agave plant.  When they get wet, the fibers plump up and it becomes a dense, soft, sturdy material. These amazing little washcloths are natural and mildew resistant. Each cloth is a unique hand woven product from villages in Mexico, made by semi-desert Indians. The cloth magically softens when placed in water and is machine washable. Use to exfoliate your skin, to remove unwanted dry skin cells. Use for an invigorating massage with aromatherapy products. A great value as it will last for a full year.
