Brilio.net - Getting smooth and radiant facial skin is certainly the dream of many people. Various treatments are carried out to achieve this, one of which is exfoliation. This facial treatment functions to remove dead skin cells that accumulate on the surface of the skin, which can make the face look dull, rough, and accelerate the appearance of acne.
Exfoliation can be done in various ways, and one of the most common ways is to use a special scrub. Scrubs usually contain fine grains that work mechanically to help scrub away dead skin layers, while stimulating new skin regeneration. Regular use of scrubs, according to skin type, can provide significant results, the skin becomes smoother, brighter, and other care products are easier to absorb.

Chia seeds contain a fine grain texture that, when soaked, becomes a soft gel that can help physically exfoliate without irritating the skin. In addition, chia seeds are rich in antioxidants, omega-3 fatty acids, and fiber, which help soothe the skin and improve the texture of the skin's surface. Meanwhile, milk contains lactic acid, a type of natural AHA (alpha hydroxy acid) that works chemically to dissolve dead skin cells and stimulate the growth of new skin cells.
