    it exfoliates: it sloughs off old, dead skin cells, and makes your new, healthy layer of skin glow. it also removes toxins and impurities from the skin. make sure you use a good moisturizer afterwards!

    body scrubs are GREAT!! if you want to make our own.. just take some oil... any type of scented massage oil, or even grapeseed oil.. mix it with some sea salt or brown sugar... make it a paste... and feel free to add essential oils.. like peppermint.. or any smell you like.. its so great for your skin!

    Source(s): i'm a licensed massage therapist.. and i've given (and give myself) salt and sugar scrubs

    Depending on what type of scrub, they usually restore and rejuvenate your skin by exfoliating..removing dead skin cells.

    Some scrubs contain salt, sugar and oils..each works in its own way.

    You can make a great scrub at home using dead sea salts and honey..

    Both ingredients are natural healers for the skin.

    Men's skin care is very similar to the skin care for women, though the male skin differs from that of a female. However, men's skin care includes the following important parts: Cleansing Like female skin care, men's facial care also starts with cleansing procedure. For this purpose it is recommended to use water soluble cleansers. This cleansing procedure helps to remove the dirt, pollutants, grease and excessive oil from the skin, preventing the pores from clogging. Male skin tends to be oily by nature; that is why cleansing is all-important for men to provide the proper skin care. This procedure should be done at least once every day. But it is much better to cleanse your face twice a day: in the morning and in the evening before going to bed. Attention: Applying soap on the face is not recommended. Shaving We cannot imagine men's skin care without shaving procedure. So shaving foams/gels/creams, as well as, after-shave lotions are also important among men's skin care solutions. Professional men's skin care requires a proper choice of shaving equipment and remedies. While choosing shaving products men should especially take into consideration their skin type (because the level of oiliness may vary from person to person). You should avoid alcohol-based after-shave solutions. Also to provide skin care for men one should apply only high-quality razors. In this case, it is recommended to prefer swivel-head razors which are known to reduce cuts. Besides the good quality of these products and equipment, it is also important to apply them in the right way. Particularly be gentle while using a razor. Try not to scratch it against your skin. Moisturising Due to regular shaving, the male skin can easily become dehydrated. So every man should have moisturisers among his skin care products. Though some shaving foams/gels themselves have an in-built moisturising effect, it is recommended to use a moisturising gel or cream after shaving. Sunscreen Though a man's skin is less sensitive to UV radiation, they should also apply a sunscreen remedy. For this purpose you may use any male moisturiser with sunscreen effect. Natural male facial care products You may use special men's solutions based on natural ingredients such as aloe vera, sea salt and coconut, as well as antiseptic oils - lavender, tea tree oils etc. As you see, men's facial care is not as hard as you consider. You need to spend just a few minutes a day, in order to have a healthy skin forever. Hope I helped
