                1.Step Up your Exfoliation

To help kickstart a lazy complexion that hasn’t been doing well on its own, exfoliation is a must! Regular exfoliation helps remove layers of dead skin which make the hair penetrates through the skin instead of growing back into the skin.

Thus, it helps to get rid of the oil build up, dirt or bacteria that cause ingrown hairs or small bumps.

Body Scrub Recipe :

Here’s one of the recipes I used that helped me get rid of strawberry legs:
  • 2 teaspoon of salt or sugar
    1 teaspoon of coconut oil or any essential oil

  • 1/2 teaspoon of turmeric powder

  • 1 teaspoon aloe vera gel (for oil-free moisture)

  • juice of half a lemon (acts as a natural disinfectant)

Just mix all the ingredients to form a paste and gently scrub to the affected area using circular motion for 2-3 minutes.

Directions:

1.) Take a hot/Warm shower or Soak Legs with Warm Water

Because the dark spots are simply imprisoned grime, take a hot or warm shower to open up the pores or start by soaking your legs in warm water. The heat expands and opens cells allowing opening the door for escape.

2.) Exfoliate the Skin

You can invest in a body scrub or you can create your own sugar scrub using few ingredients.  When using the scrub, just be firm and don’t press too hard. We don’t want to irritate our skin but trying to get rid of oil and dirt.

3.) Rinse with Cold Water

After exfoliation, you should rinse your skin with cold water.  This process helps to close your pores so dirt and oil don’t get trapped back in. This works by telling your skin it’s cold, so it constricts its pores keeping dirt and oil out.

4.) Run Some Ice cubes

This is optional but very useful extra step. Put some ice cubes in a ziplock or paper towel and slowly run it along with your arms/legs for 2-3 minutes (repeat the process twice if needed).

This process will constrict your pores even more so the dirt and oil can’t find its way to get in.

5.) Apply A Toner

Once you’re done, the next step is to apply a toner. Applying toner to your skin can restore the natural pH to your skin.

This means that after opening the cells and getting all the junk out, a toner can counter any remaining irritation and seal up your freshly cleaned pores.
