Renew your skin

It's spring time (almost!).
My fluffy cat starts to loose her witer coat. It's fur everywhere. And in this season, cat owner know what to do: Brush! Brush! Brush! And even vaccum if the cat allow us ( mine likes it).

Nobody likes puffs of cat fur rolling around the house and nobody likes flaking faces either.

It's really important to remove your dead skin.  I tought that it was common sence, until I found out several friends of mine never exfoliated their skin at home. NEVER! They just go to a beauty salon and do  a face cleaning. It's good to have a facial cleaning two times a year, when the season start's to change, to prepare and renew your skin. But that's not enough!
There are several beauty products that exfoliate your skin: face scrubs, exfoliators, small face brushes that you can use when cleaning your face.... all off them help to remove dead skin cells and prevent some flaking.

What I recommend:
- a mild exfoliator cream/gel that you can use twice or once a week. I like the Scrub your nose into it from Soap&Glory. It also helps to prevent black heads on your pretty nose.

- Use a brush with the detergent to clean you face. Garnier has a 2in1 face cleanser with a built in brush. Or you can buy it seperately. They're avaliable in almost everywhere, from specialized beauty shops to drugstores and supermarkets.

                    

- Toner. Most of us skin that part but it's important. It helps to remove the rest of the detergent and prepares your skin to moisturize. I use Shiseido's Deluxe toner (image from Sasa.com).

- Moisturize your skin with a good cream day and night. You can use the same of different moisturizers for the different times of day. For example. In the morning I use one with SPF but SPF it's no use while sleeping ( exept f you fall asleep during the day) and at night I use a collagen mask or the Shills night jelly.

- If your're not sure what products are good or not, search beauty blogs ( like mine) to see what they say about it. Or you can browse Temptalia and Beautylish for good quality and honest product reviews!
