How to get soft skin with home products?

My skin on my face is hard and gross. How can I get it soft without buying products at the store?|||Well if it%26#039;s dead skin, you should scrub it...when washing your face, take some sugar and scrub to get the dead skin off.


Also, put honey on your face and let it sit till it dries and then rinse it off. I%26#039;d try doing the honey first and then scrubbing it...it should help!|||1. Cleanse your skin once a day with soap free body wash, water, and a soft sponge.


2. The MOST important step- Ex-fo-li-ate! Exfoliate once week or once a fortnight if you have sensitive skin. It will remove dead skin cells, dirt and oil and will leave your skin baby soft! You can do this with an exfoliating puff, exfoliating shower gloves or with an exfoliating scrub. (store bought or hand made)


3. Pat dry with a big fluffy towel. Don%26#039;t rub or scrub - this damages your skin and also creates wrinkles later on in life.


4. Apply lotion, cream or body oil before you leave the steam-filled bathroom. This is the best time to moisturize your skin because your pores are still open and your skin is still moist.


5. Wear sunblock if you%26#039;re going to step outside of your house. One of the reasons babies have such soft skin is that they haven%26#039;t been exposed to the harmful effects of UV rays








[edit] Tips





* For particularly rough dry areas such as feet %26amp; elbows slather on some lotion or body oil before you go to bed, when you wake up they will feel a whole lot better.


* Drink half your weight in ounces of water every day. For example, if you weigh 140 lbs, you should drink 70 ounces of water every day, this will keep your skin hydrated from the inside out.


* Take a daily multivitamin to help your skin fight off damage and wrinkles.


* Gentle, ph balanced,soap free body wash is best for your skin, soap can be very drying %26amp; contains a lot of chemicals that can damage skin cells.


* Add a handful of sugar (brown sugar works best) to your favorite lotion and mix. Rub it into your dry skin and then towel it off.


* Brazillian women have some of the smoothest, sexiest skin in the world, whilst at the beach they will often get a hand full of sand %26amp; rub it over their thighs, elbows %26amp; bum cheeks to exfoliate.


* Try a milk %26amp; honey bath for a luxurious way to baby soft skin, run yourself a warm bath, add about half a litre of milk, about 3 tablespoons of honey (this is not enough to make you sticky) and break open a vitamin e capsule into the water.








[edit] Warnings





* Remember that your skin is your body%26#039;s largest and most vulnerable organ. Take good care of it!


* When using sugar %26amp; honey for bathing, try to avoid your genital area as sugar can cause yeast infections. Do not use the milk and honey bath more than once a month.|||I use white vinegar in my bath %26amp; rinse my hair after shampooing with it. After this I use conditioner.
