Skin Prep is very important to help a tan from peeling. Body scrubs are an excellent way to prep the skin and get your yourself ready for that bikini! Dead Sea Body Scrubs contain salt and some beneficial oils to help run into the base of your skin to exfoliate the dead cells and moisturize the winter skin with the oils of the scrub.
For luscious summer tone skin- begin using body scrubs in the Spring and continue through out the summer months. Not only will this keep your skin glowing youthful but it helps the cells to regenerate faster – actually giving you younger newer skin.
There are two types of body scrubs in the market today. The first is a salt scrub, also known as a salt glow. The salt is best used for once a month scrubs – it's a bit more coarse and can be used less often. However, my advice is NOT to use this scrub right after shaving and if you have any cuts or sores. This scrub is the best one to choose if you have really dry skin or need a heavily exfoliation.
The second type is a sugar body scrub. The sugar is softer and can be used twice weekly. A salt scrub is a little bit more coarse so you only want to use it about once a month. Both of these scrubs are going to leave your skin feeling silky smooth.
Another item to look into is the oil being used within the scrub itself- Rice Bran oil is an excellent source and will help with many skin issues as it is moisturizing and feeding the skin. If you suffer from eczema, psoriasis or dermatitis, then this is the oil you need. It is very effective, and probably the most powerful skin care product oil on the market.
Body Creams, and Body Lotions with Rice bran oil are wonderful too and they can also help keep your summer skin bikini ready!
And lastly- don't sun using any creams or lotions containing AHA's. AHA's will cause you to burn. Make certain that you have stopped using all AHA's creams for at least 2 weeks before taking to the beach to ride those waves!
Final tips for summer skin- always use a uv protector cream, look for rice bran oil and exfoliate often using a dead sea body scrub made from either sugar or salt!
