Luxuries don’t have to be expensive. In fact, it’s pretty easy to create your own pampered experience. A simple ritual like exfoliation can offer a quick escape from everyday stressors. During a recent visit to L.A.’s BeautyCon, I discovered BonBliss, a company that focuses on scented, all-natural, mini exfoliates in candy-inspired packaging. Never one to turn away from a truffled treat, I indulged—and saw that simple things like exfoliation and bubble baths offer an easy way to bring a little luxury into your life.
Step 1: So Fresh, So Clean
Just like exfoliating your face, you’ll want to thoroughly wash your body before exfoliating. Use your usual body wash. Remember, bar soap can dry out skin so be sure to use a wash that leaves skin extra hydrated, since exfoliation also dries skin.
Step 2: C’est Bon!
Once you’ve washed, unwrap BonBliss’s Moisturizing Body Truffle and gently exfoliate from the neck down. You can use your hands or a body scrubber, whatever you normally use. Break the Body Truffle into pieces or use all at once; these aromatic tiny treasures can go a long way.
Step 3: Silky Smooth
Now that you’ve washed, exfoliated and rinsed, step out of the shower and pat your silky smooth skin with a dry towel. Because of BonBliss’ moisturizing
properties, you won’t need to apply lotion once you’ve dried off. Your skin will not only be left feeling smooth but smelling absolutely fabulous.
