Our skin is constantly renewing
itself. To put in plain words, the dead cells on the
surface of the skin are shed and replaced with new cells
continually. This natural cycle of cell renewal slows
down as we age. As a result, the dead cells begin to
pile up and clog the pores, leaving the skin dull and
lifeless.
The absolute best way to remove dead cells is by
exfoliating. Exfoliating gets rid of dead cells to
reveal plumper and younger cells underneath.

It’s easy! Use a scrub.
Exfoliating or scrubbing should be a key step in your
skin care regimen.
A scrub sloughs off dead
cells and unclogs pores which could otherwise lead to
blackheads and whiteheads.
Your skin is delicate and
therefore you need to choose your scrub carefully.
Firstly, look for scrubs enriched with natural
ingredients like Apricot, Neem, Walnut as these are
gentle on the skin. Apricot, a natural moisturizer,
penetrates easily into the skin to remove deep set
impurities. Neem is a time tested herb known for its
antiseptic and anti-inflammatory properties. Walnut has
exfoliating micro-particles and contains organic acids
that are astringent and antiseptic.
Secondly, pick a scrub with fine granules. Scrubs
with coarse granules can be harsh on the skin.
It is recommended to use a
scrub once a week.
Yes. Like facial skin, dead
cells also buildup on the body. To keep your body skin
healthy and glowing, scrub it once a week.

greasy dish! The goal is to remove the dead cells and
not harm the skin.
Apply the scrub on cleansed skin and massage gently
in a circular motion. Rinse with lukewarm water and pat
dry. Apply ice to close the pores. Finish off with a
light face moisturizer.
Avoid scrubbing the delicate area around the eyes as
it is very fine and can be easily irritated.

used as Neem has a purifying action on the skin.
