Otherwise, they build up on the surface of your skin, making it rough, dry, and patchy, clogging your pores, and giving you that not-so-wonderful feeling when you run your fingers all over the place.

But do not worry! You can quickly get rid of it with some natural body polish. You can either go to the spa for a good polish or create your personal body polish at home.

This is a no-brainer. This is an elaborate skin treatment where your body is scrubbed with a slightly abrasive cream. It usually contains sugar, salt, or other grains but is not as abrasive as a body scrub.

The massage and cream work together to exfoliate and moisturize the skin and increase blood circulation—the result: soft, supple and smooth skin.

The best part about doing this at home is that it saves time and effort, and you can easily customize the scrub to meet your needs. Plus, it is a relaxing and rejuvenating experience.

If you want to body polish at home, you need a pumice stone, olive oil, honey, salt, sugar, rice flour, turmeric powder, coconut oil, rose petals, essential oils, and more.

Irrespective of the recipe you use, you will need a lukewarm shower with water after preparing the ingredients. Warm up the oil of choice a little before using it.

Gently massage your body with your scrub for ten to fifteen minutes, and when you are done, take a bath and rinse well without using soap. Gently scrub the hard areas of the knees, elbows, and heels.
