Why do people exfoliate? Usually it is to remove certain skin blemishes such as acne, sagging skin, blackheads, eczema and other unwanted skin problems. The goal of exfoliating your skin is to loosen dead skin cells and remove them so new fresh and undamaged cells can replace them. If dead cells are allowed to remain they can collect in the lining of your skin pores which will dull the skin and cause inflammation. Knowing this, the next question is how do you exfoliate properly?

You can find many kinds of exfoliate creams in any health store or in your local grocery store. You can also buy them online. You can also make your own natural exfoliates such as honey and raw oats or baking soda with distilled water. No matter what you choose to use, you should apply the product in an upward motion on your skin to create a lift effect. Also, be sure to rinse thoroughly with water before and after the application.

Only two of us are going to Barcelona at the moment, me and Helena. However it would be great if any of you guys tag alone. Hoildays where you have loads of mates come along are usually the best. Just pick any hostel and come any time between the 1st and the 20th. Hostal Portugal is where we are staying.
