Dry Brushing

Dry brushing helps exfoliate dead skin, boost circulation, and prep your skin before showering. Do this 2 or 3 times a week on dry skin before getting in the shower.

Bar Soap (First Cleanse)

Your first cleanse with a bar soap removes sweat, deodorant, and buildup so your skin is truly clean before layering scents.

Body Scrub

A body scrub smooths the skin and helps your lotion and mist last longer by removing dead skin. Use 1 or 2 times a week (not daily).

Shaving

You can have smooth skin by shaving with a razor if it’s done correctly. These are the products I genuinely recommend because they help prevent dark spots, ingrown hairs, and irritation while giving a clean, soft finish.
