Scrub quotes are relatively more popular among girls, who are much more sensitive about their skin.

Scrubbing is usually associated with a beauty treatment.

However, there is another scrubbing that surgeons do before surgical procedures.

This cleans the hands and arms to remove any bacteria and viruses.

Here we will talk about the scrubbing (body scrub) done for beautifying the skin.

In addition to enjoying the quotes, you can also learn some basic tips regarding body scrubbing.

What is a body scrub?

It’s a mechanical procedure where the dead skin is exfoliated to bring out the new and much softer skin.

For this purpose, beauticians usually take advantage of natural abrasive ingredients such as salt, sugar, or even coffee.

Through a body scrub treatment, we can stimulate the growth of new and more elastic skin cells, which results in brighter and smoother skin.

How to do it?

Here are the steps that you need to follow when doing a body scrub:

The first step involves rinsing off the skin with warm water.
Take a small amount of the scrubbing material in your hand and rub it on a specific part of your body that you want to scrub. (You can use either exfoliating gloves or just your hands)
When doing so, make sure to rub gently in a circular motion.
Don’t overdo the scrubbing part, which means it would be appropriate not to scrub an area over 30 seconds.
After that, wash your skin with lukewarm water with a mild cleanser.
Apply your regular moisturizer once the skin is dry.

How often can you scrub your body?

The answer to this question depends on the type of your skin.

Doing body scrubbing twice a week for regular skin types would be appropriate.

Nonetheless, people with sensitive skin should do body scrubbing only once a month.
