Let's take a moment to discuss exfoliation and it's importance. There are many ways to exfoliate salts, sugars, and milk baths. I have been making exfoliates for as long as I can remember. Let's take a moment to discuss a few.
Sugar Scrubs
Sugar is more than just a sweet treat it is also a natural source of glycolic acid, an alpa hydroxy acid (AHA) which is easily absorbed in your skin. Sugar also contains natural chemicals which work to form new collagen.Sugar exfoliation is the process of removing dead skin cells from the body. As we age our skins natural ability to shed dead skin slows down. Exfoliation helps the process of shedding those cells that are tenacious and stay attached to the skins surface which leads to a variety of problems from acne to uneven skin tone to fine lines. Scrubs give your skin that extra nudge revealing beautiful, bright new skin cells and unclogged clean pores. Keeping your skin exfoliated also insures that your skin care products such as serums and moisturizers effectively target the new skin cells. Sugar scrubs are great treatment for keratosis pilaris.
Salt Baths/Scrubs
Sea salts and epsom salts are commonly used in bath soaks and scrubs. Sea salt, derived from evaporated seawater, is full of minerals beneficial to the skin. The magnesium in Epsom salts can reduce inflammation, while sulfates flush out toxins, according to the Epsom Salt Council.
Goats Milk Bath
Goats milk is rich in essential fatty acids and triglycerides that help boost
your skins moisture content. It is packed with vitamins A. B6, B12, and
E, minerals, proteins and antioxidants. It also contains a form of
retinol that improves collagen density.
Goats milk is naturally laden with lactic acid (AHA) which dissolves the proteins that bind together dead skin cells revealing softer brighter skin. It is wonderful for treating psoriasis and eczema. Our bath has been known to soften the effects of roseaca as well.

We hope this has been helpful. Bask in the glow of your healthy skin.
