Want
your skin to glow? You won’t find the solution
in any bottle or jar. Glowing, vibrant skin is…well,
its skin that is healthy and glows all by itself!
We may feel that washing our face
every morning and giving it a quick rinse at night is
enough to satisfy our skin’s needs, but while our
skin does us a great service by always producing new
cells, it needs our help in getting rid of the old, dead
cells. Yes, that glowing skin that you want is underneath
all your old, flaky, dry-looking skin!
Exfoliate. That is the answer to uncovering
enviable skin. OK, so you are going to reach for a harsh
exfoliant, right? We do NOT recommend apricot scrubs as
the edge of a shattered apricot is like a knife. We want
to gently remove dry skin, not lacerate our faces in the
process. So, try an exfoliating cloth like unbleached muslin,
or a turkish washcloth. Both are gentle enough to exfoliate
your face, as well as your body.
Our favorite way to exfoliate is to
use bentonite clay. We make up a paste of it, slather it
wherever we want, let it dry, and then use muslin wrapped
around our hand to help wash it off in a bath or shower. Click
