If your skin is dry and flaky, taking a few minutes to exfoliate will give you a glow from head to toe.

To complete this How-To you will need:

An exfoliating cream
Shower gel
Moisturizer

Step 1: Wet the skin

Splash water on the area you want to exfoliate. In the shower is the perfect time to do your entire body and face.

Step 2: Put drop of exfoliator on fingers

Squeeze or scoop a quarter-sized drop of your exfoliating cream on your fingertips.

Tip: Use an oil-based exfoliator for extra hydration.

Step 3: Rub and rinse

Rub the exfoliator gently in a circular pattern for about a minute, and then rinse. The scrub removes dead skin cells revealing new skin beneath, unclogs pores, and helps reduce acne.

Tip: Exfoliate the areas of your body that tend to get the driest -- your heels, elbows, and knees.

Step 4: Apply shower gel

Clean with a shower gel to soften your skin even more.

Step 5: Moisturize

Follow your shower with a moisturizer. Body and facial lotions with alpha or beta hydroxides continue to remove dead cells while hydrating your skin. Exfoliate daily for best results.
