There is no need to talk too much about the benefits of removing dead skin cells, i.e. exfoliation, there are countless techniques and means on offer, and it is also possible to make your own home version.

Exfoliated skin feels soft and silky to the touch as exfoliation improves its texture and makes it velvety. After the layers of dead skin are removed, brand new cells will take their place, making you look fresher. That's why there is no reason not to treat your skin to a fragrant "general" after which it will shine.

Natural home exfoliation can be done very easily, and when it comes to body exfoliation, salt, sugar or polenta are most often used, due to the texture that mechanically thoroughly removes dead skin cells.

The same effect can be achieved with ground coffee or grounds from prepared "Turkish" coffee. It is best to mix coffee grounds with essential oils, which have the ability to additionally work on reducing cellulite.

Peeling is of course suitable for use on the skin of the whole body, while it is recommended to leave it on for a few minutes on parts where cellulite is visible. If you have sensitive skin, make sure to rub in the scrub as gently as possible to avoid unnecessary irritation or redness.

To prepare the peeling, you need:

1 cup of ground coffee or grounds 1/2 cup of cold-pressed oil of your choice (we recommend coconut) 10-15 drops of orange, rosemary or cypress essential oil

for a better exfoliation effect, it is recommended to add sugar

Peeling should not be used more than once a week in order not to damage the skin too much. Sometimes it's better to let the skin heal itself. If you have sensitive and dry skin, it should be treated with peelings every 15 days. People who are over 30 years old should not use body scrubs too often, but for such skin it is better to use lotions and natural oils, reports Beauty and Health.
