How to exfoliate

There are a few good methods for exfoliating, but one of our favourites is using an exfoliating body wash – like our Gentle Exfoliating Nourishing Body Wash – to wave goodbye to dead skin

The golden rule of exfoliating is not to rub too hard. You shouldn’t need a loofah, the exfoliating beads are effective enough to get the job done. So be gentle and use a light touch to massage your skin

You know those body parts that are particularly prone to dryness, such as your knees and elbows? Exfoliating could be the secret to banishing that dryness by helping to lift off the dead skin cells and allowing your moisturiser to work effectively

Do you find that colour from tanning lotion sticks to dry skin or appears patchy? Then exfoliators could be your new best friends. Using an exfoliator before you tan can help to smooth out rough, dry areas – helping the colour to be absorbed evenly

If you’re a fan of our classic Beauty Bar, then why not try Dove Gentle Exfoliating Beauty Cream Bar for an added skin treat? 

It’s still important to exfoliate, but take much more care when doing so. A washcloth, mild cleanser and warm water will help you reveal your glowing new skin without causing irritation
