About skin

The skin is not just a part of the body that requires careful care. In fact , the skin is an organ that protects the whole body, regulates body temperature, gives us a sense of touch and gives us a direct relationship to the outside world.

What is peeling?

Peeling is to exfoliate the outer layer of skin, the epidermis, with various substances. It actually means that you scrub your skin. Today, there are many chemical products on the market, which in our view can damage the skin. However, there are less aggressive and cheaper products. That’s what we’ll be talking about here.

Why is it good to use a natural peel?

The skin you see is actually an accumulation of dead skin cells that have moved from the inside up to the surface. Every day you lose more than 30,000 dead skin cells. If you give your skin a good natural exfoliation once in a while, you will achieve the following benefits:

• A better look with new skin cells.
• You want to activate the formation of collagen.
• Better blood circulation.
• Counteract wrinkles.
• Achieve softer skin.
• The skin will get rid of waste products more easily, and thus breathes better through the pores.
• Improves and eliminates scars and marks on the skin.
• Brilliant skin.

You should think about not exposing your skin to peeling too often. The body’s natural processes must also work. We therefore recommend that you do a natural peel once a week.

What do you need?

If you want to make a natural peel, you first and foremost need natural ingredients that have an exfoliating effect. Choose one of the ingredients we have listed below. You make the choice with regard to which area of ​​the body you should give peeling and which problem you should treat.

How do I use it?

Wash and moisturize the skin you want to give an exfoliation. Take some of the mixture you have made by hand and massage it gently into the skin. Make circular motions with your hand. Be sure to treat the entire area, but remember to avoid sensitive areas such as the eyes.

If you use an exfoliation on the thighs, buttocks or the like, you can add more force to the massage so that you stimulate blood circulation. Let the ingredients work for a few minutes before rinsing it off with water. Your skin is moisturized by the oils, but if you have dry skin, we recommend that you give your skin a round of moisturizer afterwards.
