Having dry and sensitive skin has always been my greatest concern of all.
My skin is constantly dehydrated and peels off easily, leading me to have some signs of premature aging such as wrinkle formation.
Exfoliating skin is a MUST for me.

Exfoliating skin is a MUST for me.
What is exfoliate and why do we have to exfoliate our face?
Well, exfoliating means to remove the dead cells and reveal the live cells beneath, giving the skin back a healthy glow.
Without exfoliating, no matter how much moisturizer you apply on your face, the dead skin on will always prevent you from absorbing any more moisturizer into the dermal layer.
There are actually several types of exfoliation, such as scrubs, AHA, BHA and enzymes.
But today, I'm gonna show you how to make a scrub for your face in less than 5 minutes!
What you will need:
What you will need:
-Brown Sugar
-Olive Oil
-Olive Oil
-Warm Face Towel
1) Scoop one table spoon of brown sugar.
2) Add in two teaspoons of Olive Oil (Preferably Extra Virgin Olive Oil)
3) Stir Both ingredients with your fingers until it becomes a paste.
4)Leave it aside and clean your face thoroughly. Trust me, you wouldn't want to skip this step as scrubbing an unclean face will only scrub off the dirt from your face.
5) Next take a 10cents size paste and massage on your face in a circular motion.
You can repeat this step until you have done it for the whole face.
6) Rinse off with warm water. and press a warm face towel onto your face immediately.
7) Lastly, slather on your moisturizer and you're done! :)
This homemade scrub works wonders for dry, chapped lips too!
The scrub might work, but never ever overdo it. Use it twice a week and it's more than enough for your face :)
You will definitely love this as it's not only easy, but it's inexpensive and most important of all, it's effective! This feels exactly the same as the over-the-counter scrub and you will immediately feel that your skin becomes soft and smooth. Besides, it smells pretty great too!
