How to...facial exfoliation?

anyone know of any good ways to exfoliate? what are some good (but cheap) brands of exfoliating cleaners and moisturizing lotions to use? and how often should i do it?





i already use clean and clear (the blue one) in the mornings.

I like Biore Pore Minimizing Refining Exfoliator. I wouldn't consider it cheap, it's around $10, but it works really well. I use it once a week, and i have been using the same tube for 9 months now.





If you want something cheaper, just do a homemade facial mask that contains yogurt. The lactic acid will exfoliate dissolving the ';glue'; that attaches the dead skin cells to your face. It brightens and smooths skin.





As for a moisturizer, try something from Aveeno. Smells good, works great, and decent price. Or try something organic like Alba Green Tea Moisturizer.





Good luck. xxHow to...facial exfoliation?
I recommend using the St. Ive's Apricot Scrub, you can get it at drugstores/walmart/target, etc. It's pretty cheap for how good it works. I use the one for sensitive skin, but there's also different types, so make sure you pick out the one that would work best for you. As far as moisturizers go, Aveeno makes amazing ones. Their products contain natural ingredients, oats/wheats, etc. I highly recommend trying out the Positively Radiant Moisturizer. It brings out your skin's natural glow, keeps your face smooth, etc
If you want to go natural with no chemicals, mix half and half of sugar and olive oil. It's really rough though but just take the pain. I also started using this awesome exfoliater called BioChemicals Pumice Peel but it's $55. Don't use it very often to avoid scrubbing your face off. Use accordingly, like to when you feel like it or when your face gets dry.

it works really well and you should use it like once a week
As far as exfoliators/cleansers, St Ives makes a good peach facial scrub that I really like.





As far as moisturizers, I like Johnson's baby lotion ';original';.
what i use that i found to work actually really good is Baking soda.
St.Ives apricot scrub has been used by my granny, mum and myself, its ace!
