Scrub a dub

Start scrubbing...NOW!  Everyone, whether you have dry or oily skin, needs to incorporate EXFOLIATION into their routine stat!  Besides moisturizer, it's one of the most important steps in getting your skin into shape.  And sorry ladies, (and men) little "beads" in your cleanser isn't going to cut it.  You need a good, gritty scrub.  The one I recommend is...

Aveda Tourmaline Charged Skin Refiner

This scrub has the right amount of grit without being too abrasive.  Exfoliation is going to get rid of all that flaky skin that us dry skins experience frequently, your pores are going to appear smaller, your blackheads will run for the hills, new skin cells are produced faster, and it lets all those expensive, creamy, amazing creams and serums penetrate into the skin deeper, which means better results.  If you're more oily, I recommend scrubbing two to three times weekly, depending on how congested your skin is, and dry skin only needs one to two times weekly.  It's a must for beautiful, glowing skin.
