Healing Dry Sensitive Skin

For skin that has lost its sheen, Sue Mangapora, a registered nurse from the Skin Renewal Clinic in Flint, says exfoliation is one of the most important things a person can do during the winter.

I recommend exfoliating twice a week. I use a product that has an emollient base that carries a powdery French salt to slough off dead skin and stimulate circulation. The key is to go gently, though. Here are simple instructions on how to exfoliate your face, and how to chose the right exfoliant for dry skin. For the rest of my body, I don’t use a product. I prefer dry skin brushing.
