If you suffer from dry skin in the winter, you might consider dry brushing your skin before you shower. "If you dry-brush on a daily basis, you'll probably notice a difference within a week--especially if you follow it with moisturizer," says Vivianne Varcia-Tunon of ESPA spas in Allure magazine.
You can follow the dry brushing with a homemade body scrub. Simply combine 2 parts sugar (or salt) and 1 part oil (any oil in your kitchen will work -- even olive oil, but I prefer extra virgin coconut oil), and massage into skin in a circular motion. Rinse off in the tub. I have more detailed directions on homemade scrubs How to Make Salt and Sugar Scrubs.
