This year, why not make a resolution for your skincare and body care? Your skin deserves attention and care, and starting fresh with the right routine can make a big difference.

This African Mesh Body Exfoliator is designed to help you feel smooth, glowing, and confident in your own skin. Incorporating a high-quality body scrub into your routine is one of the simplest ways to give your skin the care it needs and make your New Year’s resolution stick.

Why a Mesh Body Scrub Should Be Part of Your Resolution

Exfoliation is more than just a step in your skincare routine. Using a body scrub like LUV SCRUB helps remove dead skin cells, giving your body a smooth canvas. There are many benefits to adding exfoliation to your body care routine, including:

• Helping your soaps, body oils, and other body care products absorb better.

• Boosting circulation so your skin looks healthier and more glowing.

• Preventing ingrown hairs after shaving or waxing.

The texture of LUV SCRUB ensures your skin gets the right amount of exfoliation without feeling harsh. It is the perfect African scrub for anyone who wants to make skincare and body care a part of their daily life.

How to Use LUV SCRUB for Best Results

Incorporating an African Mesh Body Exfoliator into your routine is easy and quick. Here is a simple way to use LUV SCRUB:

1. Wet your skin and the LUV SCRUB.

2. Apply your favorite soap or body wash.

3. Use in circular motion to clean and exfoliate.

4. Rinse thoroughly, then apply your favorite body oils for soft, smooth skin.

Because it lathers so well, you save product while getting the full benefit of your soap or shower gel. This makes it an efficient and enjoyable step in your skincare routine, helping you stick to your New Year’s resolution without feeling like extra work.

Make Self-Care Your Resolution

Setting a resolution does not have to be about drastic changes or difficult habits. Sometimes the best resolutions are the ones that make you feel good every day. Committing to a body scrub routine with LUV SCRUB is a small change that can have a big impact. Smooth, glowing skin boosts confidence, makes your skincare products work better, and adds a moment of self-care to your daily routine.

Is Your LUV SCRUB Feeling Scrubbed Out?

Be honest... how long have you had your LUV SCRUB? If it’s been with you through countless showers, vacations, and late-night self-care moments, that baby’s been loyal. But even the best African Mesh Body Exfoliator needs a little refresh sometimes. Here’s how to tell when your LUV SCRUB is asking for a break

What Happens Over Time

Your LUV SCRUB is made to last, but it naturally changes the more you use it. Here is what’s totally normal with your African scrub:

• It gets softer. With regular use, your LUV SCRUB naturally becomes softer on the skin and loses some of that fresh out of the box exfoliation power that makes African Body Exfoliating feel so good.

• Knots loosen up. After months of use, you might notice it feeling less tight. Nothing to worry about!

• Color fades. A little fading just means it’s been putting in the work as your go to African Mesh Body Exfoliator.

• It grows. Yup, it actually stretches out and gets longer with use. That’s a good thing.

• Edges fray. A few frays on the sides are fine. Your LUV SCRUB isn’t falling apart, it’s just well-LUVed after all that African Body Exfoliating care.

Time for a Refresh

We recommend replacing your LUV SCRUB after 18 months as a good best practice. Think of it like getting a new toothbrush or new sheets. It just makes sense after a while. Your old one has done its job, and a fresh LUV SCRUB makes your shower routine feel brand new again, especially when you love African Body Exfoliating and want the best results.

Wait... Don’t Toss Your Old One Yet

Before you say goodbye, give it a second life. Your older LUV SCRUB is perfect to take on trips, to keep in your gym bag, or to use for self-tanning removal or body treatments that you don’t want to use your brand new one for. It still has plenty of use in it, just in a more casual way, especially when you need a backup African Mesh Body Exfoliator.

Keep That Skin Glowing

A new LUV SCRUB means you starting fresh and that satisfying “ahh” feeling every time you shower. If your current one has been hanging around for a while, take this as your sign to treat yourself with a new African Scrub.

Your skin will thank you later.

Fall Into Sexy Skin: Perfecting Seasonal Exfoliation

Just because the season to show off your skin is over doesn’t mean you shouldn’t continue to take care of it. It’s important to maintain your body care routine year-round, especially as the weather gets cooler. Exfoliation is an essential part of keeping the skin looking and feeling healthy, and LUV SCRUB is the perfect tool to do it!

Why Exfoliate In the Fall & Winter?

You may notice your skin getting dry or itchy as it gets colder. That’s likely because you’re not effectively exfoliating. The cool, dry air, combined with high heat indoors at work or home can strip the skin of its natural moisture. Many people make the mistake of only using moisturizer this time of year, believing it will help nourish their skin. However, exfoliation is an essential step in eliminating dead skin cells and creating a smooth canvas for moisturizing products.

How Do You Take Care of Your Skin in Cold Weather?

The cool winter weather is known to dry out the skin, but exfoliation works to eliminate those dead skin cells. LUV SCRUB’s Mesh Body Exfoliator is a modern take on the African net sponge, which has been used in Ghana for generations. Its supreme knotted texture allows you to effectively cleanse and exfoliate your body. You’re in control of how much pressure you apply when using the African sponge, ensuring you do not over-exfoliate. Steer clear of shower tools such as loofahs, shower gloves, and any similar products, as they do not provide effective exfoliation and can breed nasty bacteria. We recommend staying away from body care products (such as shower gels or moisturizers) with alcohol, as it is a drying ingredient. After using your LUV SCRUB, make sure to apply your favorite moisturizer all over your body to help maintain your skin's hydration levels. Feel free to test out different oils, lotions, and body butter to see what works best for you.

When Should You Not Use an Exfoliator?

LUV SCRUB is not recommended for those with sensitive skin or skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, and others. Exfoliation should also be avoided directly after any skin treatments. This includes (but is not limited to) waxing, laser hair removal, or chemical peels. After these treatments, your skin will be extremely sensitive, meaning exfoliation could cause damage. Avoid using an African exfoliating net and other exfoliating tools for at least a few days, or up to a week after your treatment. Exfoliation should also be avoided if you have open wounds, as it can cause more damage during the healing process.

In Conclusion, Exfoliation is Key!

Although your skin may not be exposed, it’s essential to keep up with a good body care routine year-round. Exfoliation will remove dead skin cells and keep your skin looking and feeling smooth (and healthy). Use your LUV SCRUB (African sponge elevated) daily, and experience the difference yourself

Face Vs. Body Exfoliators: 4 Tips

There is a difference between exfoliating your face and body for oily skin, and for all skin types. Here at LUV SCRUB, we are all about exfoliation. Not only does it clear away dead skin cells, but it leaves you with a clean and gorgeous glow. Read on to learn more about how to exfoliate skin naturally to get your best skin yet.

1. Use toners on your face, not your body

An important step in your facial skincare routine may include a toner. A toner is a lightweight formula, often applied with a cotton pad and water, that uses chemicals to remove any irritants on the face. This can easily lead to a glowy complexion. However, these exfoliators are best kept on the face and not the body. It’s also considered best practice not to use them every day.

2. Use exfoliating brushes on your body, not your face

Another easy way to exfoliate your body is a dry brush. A dry brush usually has a long handle and coarse bristles. You can even hang it in your shower for regular use. Since it is so harsh, it is best used only a few times a week, and only on your body so you don’t irritate your face. You can use a dry brush and an african exfoliating net together, but make sure to not use the dry brush every day.

3. Use LUV SCRUB on your body, not your face

When it comes to using your LUV SCRUB, you may think the more the better. While it’s true that it can be used daily on your body to cleanse and exfoliate, you should only use it for your body, not your face. Your african net sponge is specially formatted with the highest quality mesh to make sure that it removes dead skin cells from your body, but the texture is not recommended for your face.

4. Use sugar scrubs on your body, not your face

While exfoliating your body, you can even use a higher duty sugar or salt scrub that contains thick grains to maximize the impact. Oftentimes, these body exfoliators are formulated to include scents and other irritants that may be effective on your body, but could potentially irritate your body. Keep the heavy-duty exfoliating scrubs to your body and use a moisturizer after to seal in moisturizer for the best glow. A body exfoliator is great for an all-around glow and can be used with your african sponge, but keep it off your face.

Exfoliation can be a great useful tool to help contribute to your overall glow. There are many beauty tools and tricks that can help keep you glowing year-round. Make sure you stick to these rules on which exfoliants to use on your face or your body, and you’ll be glowing in no time.
