You will need a body scrub that is fit for your skin type, you will need a body brush that doesn’t have bristles that are too harsh on your skin, then you will need a body wash, a cleaner and finally you will need a moisturizer. Now don’t worry, if you don’t have all these things you don’t have to go out of your way to get them. Try to use what you have before going out to get something.

When exfoliating your entire body you will start off with your ordinary shower or bath whichever you prefer. Then you will move on to using your body scrub. Try getting it all over your body and actually working it on the surface of your skin. Many scrubs can be really rough which is what they are intended to be but try to be really light so you don’t scratch your skin. Next, you can go ahead and give your body a rinse. Once you are all dried off you will then use the cleanser and moisturizer. You see it’s really not too hard to exfoliate your entire body.
