What, if any, scrub/exfoliating product do you use? Right now I use a baking soda scrub and I loooove it, and I'd hate to stop using it, but if I have to then I guess I will.
Thanks!

Re: If you use OCM...
I make a sugar scrub by mixing some of my OCM oil and some white sugar.
You could use baking soda instead, if that works for you. No particular reason not to - I find it helps to occasionally exfoliate.
I may have to try this! I think the baking soda might be part of the reason my skin is drying out but I haven't found a scrub that comes close to exfoliating like it does.
Me too.
I also occasionally do a mask of strawberries, lemon, and olive oil.
I'm going to have to try this on my back. Probably TMI, but the skin on my back is weird and will entirely flake off for no particular reason. This happened last night, and after exfoliating with a wash cloth, the skin was red and burning. At least I was able to clear it up with my jobajoba/ tea tree oil mix, but I bet this would be better.
After I had so much success with this, I made up a batch for my sister. About a week later, she called me and said "I would actually pay you money to make this for me again, I like it that much". I hope you like it as much as I do!
