Are you exfoliating? If you’re not, we can’t be friends. Okay, jk jk, we can still be friends but you need to start NOW.
Exfoliating makes your skin far more receptive to hydration. When you think of it, if you aren’t getting rid of that top layer of dry skin, you’re not benefiting that next layer that actually needs the moisture. Your dry skin cycle will just continue on, and who wants that? You don’t want to over exfoliate either. Once or twice a week, depending on your skin. Try just once to start off, if you try two and get too irritated, ease up and go back to once.
One of my personal favorites comes from Ablutions Spa. Lemon Tamarind Microdermabrasion Face Polish not only works wonders but it smells incredible! I want to smell like this all day every day. Oh my gosh, I am obsessed with it! Not only is it a skin booster, it’s a mood booster. You cannot smell the lemon tamarind and not feel hopped up on happiness! Okay, I think you’ve gotten the hint as to how much I love the smell, haha! Let’s get down to performance - This skin polish features a fine grit that gets the job done. I slapped some on my face brush and went to town! In the end, my face was squeaky clean and ready for business! Not only do I appreciate the sloughing of the dead skin off, I know my makeup does as well. Easier, smoother application is always appreciated by this girl! In addition, my husband used this before his shave. Exfoliating before shaving is so beneficial! The exfoliation pulls the hair upwards in addition to buffing that old skin off to give you a closer, smoother shave. You wouldn’t believe the difference you’ll feel by just doing this simple task!
Let it also be known that there is not a single exfoliant that I don’t use on my hands. I think that’s the best place to try out the products to feel the difference in your skin. Plus, who doesn’t love soft, smooth hands?! I used this on my hands and was so sad to put lotion over the top because I just wanted to inhale the scent of Lemon Tamarind! (For the record, I used this in conjunction with Ablutions Spa’s Organic Virgin Coconut Hand & Body Cream, which I’ll be reviewing at a later date as well.)
Your bottle of Lemon Tamarind Microdermabrasion Face Polish can be purchased for $20 per 3oz bottle. For further information on Lemon Tamarind Microdermabrasion Face Polish and other phenomenal products from Ablutions Spa, visit their website at ablutions-spa.com.




This now on my definitely must buy list!! I usually just use plain sugar for my face and body, but lemon is by far my favorite scent! So, I have to try it!
It’s like scrubbing Froot Loops on your face!
I’m not one to exfoliate on a regular basis and I probably just use hand lotion for your sake…haha! But this post makes me want to exfoliate more often! I might have to try some:)
