Why a peeling?

This is the English expression for skin peeling, the goal is to get rid of dead skin cells. This results in more beautiful, smoother, and pure skin. This skin cleansing is ideal for spots, acne, black pores, scars or small wrinkles.

Various peelings are also carried out in the beauty salon: lasers or other techniques that attack the skin more strongly can be used for this.

But you can take advantage of fruits, vegetables, and other foods to get similar, sometimes even better results.

Before using a scrub, the face should be cleaned thoroughly. You can use neutral facial soap and lukewarm water to do this. Remove any makeup residue, then dry the face off.

It is also recommended that you perform the peeling when you no longer have to go out so that the sun’s rays do not damage the newly treated skin. After using the scrub, you can apply a moisturizer (homemade or purchased) to protect the skin.

The best natural scrubs are mostly used on the skin of the face, but they can also be done on the arms, shoulders, back, neck, legs, etc.

The best natural scrubs

• Cornmeal and Lemon Peeling: You’ll need the juice of one lemon, a spoonful of sugar, a spoonful of cornmeal, two spoons of rose water, and a few drops of lemon essential oil. Mix the flour with the rose water until a homogeneous paste is formed. Then add the sugar, lemon juice and lemon oil. Mix everything well and then apply the scrub to the skin of the face with circular massages. Then let it sit for a few minutes and then wash your face well with fresh water. Then use a facial toner to close the pores.

• Peeling with sugar and olive oil:  The ingredients are two spoons of sugar, two spoons of olive oil and half a spoon of lemon juice. Mix everything well and then apply the scrub to the skin of the face in circular motions. After about 10 minutes of action, you can wash the scrub off with cold water to close the pores.

• Peeling with strawberries:  You need three to four strawberries, a spoonful of natural yogurt and two spoons of oatmeal. Mash three strawberries together with the yogurt and oatmeal until a homogeneous paste is formed. You can then also use the stand mixer for this. Apply the scrub to the skin of your face, then let it work for 15 to 20 minutes. Then rinse with cold water. Apply this scrub twice a week.

More peelings

• Peeling with salt:  This is used less for the face and mostly for other parts of the body, as it is very strong. The ingredients are four cups of fine sea salt, one cup of olive oil, one cup of almond oil and a few drops of lavender essential oil. Massage the scrub into the skin in a circular motion (two spoons at most), then wait a few minutes before washing it off with lukewarm water. Then do this 1-2 times a week.
• Peeling with yoghurt and salt:  For this you need two spoons of natural yoghurt and one spoon of fine sea salt. Mix the two ingredients well, then apply them to the skin. After about 20 minutes you can rinse off the peeling with lukewarm water.

• Peeling with grapefruit:  All you need is the juice of a grapefruit and a spoon of sugar. Mix both ingredients together well and apply them to your face. After a few minutes of action, you can wash off the peeling with lukewarm water. You can then use this scrub three times a week (every other day).
• Peeling with tomato and lemon: You need a ripe tomato, the juice of half a lemon and two spoons of sugar. Chop the tomato, then add the lemon juice and sugar. Apply the scrub in gentle circular motions, then let it sit for 15 minutes. Then rinse with cold water to close the pores.
• Peeling with sand:  If you are at the seaside you can use this to treat your legs, feet and heels with a natural peeling. Simply rub it gently with sand, preferably after a swim in the sea while the skin is still moist. Together with the salt water you will then achieve excellent results.

Two more peelings that are among the best natural peelings

• Coffee scrub:  This is very effective and all you need is a few spoons of coffee grounds mixed with a moisturizer. Rub it over your skin, then wash it off with hot water. Finally, use cold water to close the pores. Don’t forget to apply a toner afterwards.
• Steam scrub: You can bring a pot of water to a boil, then bow your head over it for a facial steam bath . Cover your head with a towel. This method is then also used against runny nose and colds. Try to hold out as long as possible without getting burned. Then you can remove black spots and pimples. Another option is to moisten a cloth with boiling water and place it on the face for as long as possible (approx. 15 minutes). Be careful when doing this to avoid getting burned.
