Your skin is constantly renewing itself and when this happens, dead cells may accumulate on the surface. If nothing is done about those dead cells, your skin can begin to look dull. This can also lead to breakouts, grimy feet and other problems. During this treatment, a deeply exfoliating scrub will be applied to polish your skin and clear it of impurities and dead skin cells. After your treatment, the scrub will be wiped off with a damp cloth to reveal your renewed, glowing skin. You will then have access to a shower to wash off any residue left behind. Depending on your preference, the treatment can last between 30 minutes to an hour. While a full body exfoliation has many benefits, it is an abrasive treatment, so it’s important to be mindful of any skin conditions you may have. If you have very sensitive skin, eczema or psoriasis, please ensure to let your therapist know beforehand. Full body exfoliations are particularly effective before spray tans as the exfoliation will leave your skin more uniform and cleaner, making your tan look even and last longer.
The scrubs used are usually sugar or salt based and may have other ingredients like wheat bran. These added ingredients are added to leave your skin softer for longer periods of time after the treatment.
