EXFOLIATE:
It is extremely important to exfoliate your skin with a gentle scrub that will not only remove build- up of impurities and prevent clogging of pores, but will also make your skin less sticky. Using a loofah while bathing greatly helps in exfoliating dead skin cells away. And can help make skin less sticky. This is because the salts and chemicals in sweat, as well as sebum, combine to make skin sticky. Regular showers with a mild cleanser help greatly.
