TRIED&TESTED:EXFOLIATORS
Finally am back to stayin put at one place so I have easy acess to update! We all love the squeaky clean feeling after scrubbing our face with a fab scrub and I like my scrubs all grainy and creamy in texture and easy to wash off. So over time I have tried these EXFOLIATORS and would like to share my views on them.
1)PHILOSOPHY : THE MICRO DELIVERY EXFOLIATING WASH
It's a mild exfoliating cleanser that is gentle enough to used everyday. I have been using this on and off for about a year(that's probably the longest ,I have used a product for) . It's has this fine grainy texture that's a lil liquidish with a very mild smell..the smell makes u feel like u are using one of these professional beauty treatment products! I have used it everyday for few weeks( that's coz I like to go back and forth between products) and found it to be rather gentle. But don't use it near the eye area! It says its a face wash but then it's better used as a scrub coz it doesnt really help in taking off the eye makeup residue. But if used over time it does help in achieving a smooth and glowing skin.
2) CLARINS ONE STEP GENTLE EXFOLIATING FACIAL CLEANSER.
This my sister has been using for a while and is a huge fan. It again says it's a one step cleanser but it's not helpful to get the eye makeup residue off coz it stings if it gets into your eyes. It's a great scrub that smells all citrusy and does the job of what it says. It gives you glowy skin when used over time and face feels fresh after using it.
3)St.IVES APRICOT SCRUB
The most popular scrub ever ,this does the job of exfoliating perfectly! It's cheap and now it's coming in different varieties to suit different needs. My mom has been a huge fan of this ever since it was invented I guess !! I like it too and always have a tube with me . The only complain I have is that it leaves a lil oily residue ! Else it's great!
4)AVEENO SKIN BRIGHTENING DAILY SCRUB
It's texture is a lot like the philosophy exfoliating wash but at 1/4 the price! It's mild , a lil too mild I think. It's k, not that great. It dint give a very squeaky clean feel. But a lot of people told me it worked for them.for me it was just passable! Or maybe I dint like it so much coz istopped using it for a short while and like many products it takes many uses for the desired results to be achieved .
5) PAPAYA
Yes PAPAYA.... the most natural way to exfoliate!!! Just take a piece of a well ripened papaya and rub it over your face and leave it to dry for a while. The papaya enzymes are known to dissolve dead skin cells and also reduce age spots and fine lines. Many high end creams contain this wonder ingredient. Try applying it for a few weekks everyday and see the results yourself. It leaves a beautiful glow!!!
