It's organic, no additives, perfumes, dyes, etc.<br /><br />To exfoliate I use baking soda. I sprinkle about a quarter size amount into my hand, add enough water to make a paste, then gently massage it into my skin. I do this 3 times a week.<br /><br />To moisturize I use pure coconut oil. It makes my skin very smooth and soft. I rarely get breakouts.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06389933052287920588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6619950971211244776.post-38176193910210772242010-08-04T10:08:43.657-07:002010-08-04T10:08:43.657-07:00Love you blog, style, hair and face lol I will hav...Love you blog, style, hair and face lol I will have to try these and see if they work.
