5 Body Exfoliators to Try That Aren’t Scrubs

Mechanical exfoliators like scrubs are an easy way to exfoliate the body, but they can be harsh on skin. In the winter when our skin is dry and can be more sensitive, we like to reach for chemically exfoliating body products instead.  From body washes to lotions, these are our favorite ways to exfoliate from the neck down for smooth, nourished skin.
