A great exfoliant is sugar, seriously. Just mix it in with your cleaner. You can use it on your face or any other part of your body. I use it on my bikini line to prevent in-grown hairs. It works great and is gentle enough to use anywhere and it's very cheap. (06/09/2009)

Yogurt Face Mask

• 1 tsp. natural yogurt (not non-fat or low fat)
• 1 tsp. runny honey (heat up hard honey to smooth up)

Mix together, apply to the face, let it set for 15 minutes then wash off with warm, soft water.

Do not use sugar, if candida is an issue, it will get worse or start a problem. You can use salt or ground up oatmeal as a scrub, then use a 10% solution of white vinegar as an astringent. It's a mild alphy-hydroxy and helps to peel off dead skin. You may see your skin peeling as time goes on, then when you wash, it gets rid of it. (06/11/2009)
