Here's how to polish your body to perfection:

1. Start Dry. Skin will shed faster and more evenly if you polish when its dry.

2. Stand in the bathtub or shower stall with the water off. Use your hands - not a loofah or sponge - to massage a body scrub product into the skin with circular motions. Choose a scrub with granules suspended in essential oils and moisturizer base for moisturizing and conditioning as you scrub. Concentrate on the rough areas - heels, knees, elbows, legs.

3. Let Sit. Let the scrub stay on 3-5 minutes before you rinse it off completely with pleasantly warm water.

4. Towel Dry, leaving the skin slightly damp. Slather on a body cream, lotion or oil.

5. Repeat the whole process 2-3 times a week. For sensitive or super-dry skin, limit to once a week.
