Top 6 Body scrubs & exfoliator picks for 2020 that you haven't heard before

TREND / 2020-09-16

You must have heard of the CETM skincare routine – Cleanse, exfoliate, tone and moisturise. Today, we’ll talk at length about the E of this routine. Why? Because exfoliation is key for glowing skin, yet we often ‘skip’ our bodies in our beauty routines. Regularly scrubbing your body can boost circulation and smooth dry patches, as well as unclog pores. The latest innovations in the beauty industry have given way for big and small brands alike, to come up with options that are made for everyone and will give unbeatable glowy results. While you may follow CETM for face regularly, how often do you follow the same for the rest of your body? Skin care doesn’t end right above your neck. Your body also needs a thorough skin care routine. 

Not only that, you're also missing out on a major feel-good treat if you skip a body scrub in your showering routine altogether. Not only do physical body exfoliators feel and often smell like an indulgent treat, but they also slough away dull, dry skin to reveal a smoother skin that is radiant. Body scrubs are an amazing way to keep ingrown hairs at bay, too.

Body scrubs shouldn't replace your go-to body wash. If your present body care routine comprises just body butter, body lotion, and body washes, you are missing a major step by skipping the exfoliation part. As long as a body scrub is not causing any kind of skin irritation, you can exfoliate daily if desired. For starters, we recommend exfoliating no more than three times weekly. If you are staying indoors most days, then once per week is sufficient. To select the best scrub for your skin type, look at a body scrub’s ingredients. If you have a highly soft or sensitive skin, prefer sugar over coffee scrubs. Massaging your body with a scrub not only helps you de-stress at the end of the day but is also an excellent way to boost blood circulation throughout your body. So, what are you waiting for? Pick your favorite scrubs from IFCHIC.com and exfoliate your way to satin-smooth, glowing skin!
