Every second of every day, your body is creating new skin cells to replace the ones that are dying on the outer layers of your dermis. For a while, the dead skin cells pile up on top of the fresh, vibrant skin cells underneath before they are sloughed off. Instead of waiting for this top layer of dead skin cells to fall away naturally or spending a lot of time in the shower scrubbing, you can exfoliate your skin and remove the dead cells faster, exposing the soft, smooth layer of skin beneath. This is especially important for the skin of your face, as it will minimize the appearance of blemishes, keep your skin healthy, and help to reduce and prevent acne and other skin problems.
To exfoliate the skin on your face from the comfort of your Lady Lake apartment, follow these simple steps:
- Wash your face with warm water and a facial cleanser to remove oil and dirt. Using warm water will open your pores and make sure that the exfoliating process in the following steps works properly.
- Apply an exfoliating scrub, which you can purchase at any local pharmacy or drugstore. Rub it in vigorously but take care to avoid getting it in your eyes at all times.
- Rinse the exfoliating scrub away with cold water, making sure that all of it has been removed.
- Pat-dry with a towel and apply a small amount of moisturizer to prevent your face from getting too dry.
Repeating this exfoliating process once or twice a week in addition to regular bathing will help keep your skin glowing and smooth at all times. For any additional information about renting one of our spacious apartment homes here at The Quarters, contact our leasing office today.
