  As we approach the end of summer, there are so many things we are going to miss. Cookouts on the weekends, trips to the beach, or a nice days at the pool. One thing we can carry with us is our beautiful, glowing skin that we showed off the entire summer.  With fall right around the corner, one way to hold to the memory of summer is by exfoliating your skin during the fall and winter months.  Exfoliating has great benefits like: Removes dead skin cells and promotes circulation. Helps even out skin tone. Skin appears to be "glowing" and softer. Helps prevent pores from clogging. Allows moisture to penetrate skin better. There are different types of products out there you can use to exfoliate your skin. However, DO NOT use the same exfoliant for your body on your face. Our face is more delicate and needs a gentler scrub.  When it comes to the body, the base for most scrubs are sugar or salt. I use both and different brands. I also make my own scrubs from time to time....
