Menopause skin care on a budget- ditch the expensive exfoliators

Get Fit & Lose Weight

Your skin tends to start looking dull as you get older and exfoliating to remove the build up of excessive dead skin cells from your face will really help your complexion.

One way to do this is to use a mechanical exfoliator, usually in the form of a facial scrub, sea salt or a microdermabrasion kit for example. I used to do that until a friend of mine, who works in the beauty industry, suggested I try a microfibre cloth.

These are very soft cloths that you are used for general household cleaning, they’re especially good for glass. If you wear glasses, you may have been given a very small one when you got a new pair of glasses.

I use mine once a day with my Olay salicylic acid face wash and my skin is much smoother and more radiant. They feel very soft but they’re much tougher than they look so be sure not to scrub too hard otherwise your face will end up looking raw and red depending on your skin tone of course. The best thing about microfibre cloths – they are super cheap. You can get a pack of them for a few dollars at your local store in the auto or the household cleaning section. The fact that they’re so cheap means that you can change them as often as you like. Enjoy!
