1) Aveeno Positively Radiant Daily Facial Pads
2) Avon Microdermabrasion Facial Scrub
3) Home remedies:
For a gentle exfoliating mask, mix 1/4-1/3 cup plain whole milk yogurt w/ 1-2 tblsp. of honey & a bit of ground oatmeal. Layer it over your face, leave it on for 20 minutes & rinse w/ cool water. Rub gently as you rinse it off. The lactic acid in the yogurt & the scrubbing action of the oatmeal will remove skin flakes. The honey will help sooth & moisturize your skin.
Make a paste of baking soda & water. Rub gently over your face & rinse w/ tepid water.
4) Clay masks. I like Beauty w/o Cruelty's clay mask & Origin's charcoal/clay mask.
5) See a dermatologist & ask about Differin. These prescription products encourage cell turnover & stimulate collagen production.

Try to do it no more than three times a week at night before applying night cream/oil. While exfoliation is good to remove dead skin cells overuse does damage the skin.

I usually don't use scrubs. I usually use a peel. St. Ives makes many good peel off masks. They get rid of dead skin cells and make my skin feel fresh. Also it makes my skin smooth and even toned. It's not harsh on your skin and moisturizes.

Use a Buf-Puf (they come in gentle and extra-gentle varieties) with your normal face wash a few times a week. Just make sure to let the puff dry between uses to avoid bacteria build-up.
I have sensitive, oily skin and this works well for me!

....if the apricot scrub is harsh...plug your sink and fill with hot water and add salt...then put a thin towel in the water...then lay across your face and let the steam open and cleanse your pores...good luck and uve gotta try this!!!

well if you wanna try a homemade scrub, use sugar and baby oil, mix together, and use! it is good because you can control the consistency of the mix! good luck
