Is it good to exfoliate? We think so. For most of us, exfoliation is a key step in our skin care routine. It’s not just great for your face, either: exfoliating skin on your whole body is just as important to keep it happy, smooth and radiant. It’s like giving your body a well-deserved hand to help clear away its dead skin, making way for younger cells to come through. But with so many exfoliating methods out there, how do you know which one is for you? Here’s our advice on how to get it right.

Be gentle.There is a golden rule with exfoliators: don’t rub too hard. The exfoliating beads in your product – like our Gentle Scrub Body Wash – are effective enough to get the job done. So be gentle and use a light touch to massage your skin
