Peeling For Dry Skin: Create Your Own Body Peeling

A homemade peel for dry skin is very beneficial for your skin, as opposed to commercial varieties, especially if your skin is dry.

The combination of clay, mud and salts has incredible properties and deeply cleanses, giving your skin beauty and elasticity.

To get rid of toxins, it is best to use ingredients such as grape seeds, strawberry seeds, chia, rosehip and quinoa. Thanks to their size, they can easily penetrate your pores and remove impurities.

Even with natural products, you need to know which ones to choose to meet your needs.

• For example, clays tend to have a cleansing and soothing effect on the skin, while also working to disinfect and detoxify.
• On the other hand, mud masks work to cleanse the skin and eliminate impurities.

By being well informed, you can forget about commercial peels for dry skin, which will prevent you from endangering your skin’s health.

The importance of peeling for dry skin

The outer part of our skin consists of layers of skin cells that continuously grow and die. The dead cells prevent your skin from generating new ones. This can lead to conditions such as dryness and cracks in the epidermis.

Those who have been going for a while without exfoliating the skin, or worse, have never done it, should start doing it once a week.

Natural peeling

In your home you can find more things than you think that can help you keep your skin beautiful. And they are easy to use.

We share some with you:

1. Lemon and sugar

Ingredients

• The juice of a lemon
• Brown sugar (as much as needed)

Cooking

• Squeeze the lemon and strain the juice so you can mix it with brown sugar
• Add the sugar little by little until the mixture has the desired consistency, and make sure that it does not drip when you use it.

Application

• Spread small amounts of the mixture all over your body, but put more weight and pressure on the driest areas, such as elbows and knees. Use circular motions  and make sure you do not forget any parts of your body.

• To finish, rinse the peel with plenty of cold water so that your pores close without absorbing anything.
• The cleansing and disinfecting properties of the lemon, combined with the sugar that works to remove the dead cells, provide a perfect, cost-effective mixture for cleansing the skin.
