•  STEP 3: Apply an exfoliating cleanser to your skin or sprinkle it onto your
                          sponge. Some exfoliating cleansers contain as much as 25-percent ground
                          volcanic rock; these are good for oily skin. However, cleansers that dry out oily
                          skin too much can have a rebound effect, causing glands to overproduce oil.
                       •  STEP 4: Scrub the exfoliating cleanser over your skin using your sponge or
                          loofah; make circular motions.
                       •  STEP 5: Be gentle over sensitive parts of the body, like delicate neck and thigh
                          tissue.
                       •  STEP 6: Rinse skin thoroughly.
                       •  STEP 7: Be sure to follow up with a good moisturizer. Exfoliating dries out your
                          skin.
                       •  STEP 8: Choose a lotion that is light in petroleum, lanolin and mineral oils. Non-
                          comedogenic lotions - those designed specifically to prevent the formation of
                          pimples - are best.

                   Tips & Warnings


                       •  Do not over-exfoliate your skin. Although exfoliating will make your skin less
                          oily, it can also cause it to crack. Overly vigorous exfoliating can even break the
                          tiny blood vessels under your skin.

                   How to Remove Bandage Adhesive From

                   Skin



                   Most first-aid tapes are now made so that little or no adhesive remains on your skin when
                   the tape is removed. Just in case, here's how to remove any sticky stuff that gets left
                   behind.

                   Instructions


                       •  STEP 1: Lessen the pain when removing a bandage by applying a warm
                          compress. Or spread baby oil or vegetable oil over and around the bandage with a
                          cotton ball. The oil will also remove the adhesive left on the skin.
