On this week’s podcast, I talk to you all about Sculptra! Sculptra, also known as poly-L-lactic acid is made from the same material that stitches come from! I love this injectable because of how effective it is at helping your body produce its own collagen! I love educating all of my Beauty Byters about products like Sculptra.

540: Summer Secrets: Should You Stop Scrubbing?
Happy Friday Beauty Byters!
In this week’s Five Minute Friday, I am talking about the importance of exfoliating your skin. Exfoliating your skin has so many benefits both internally and externally. Everything from the absorption of your skincare, to the circulation of your skin, exfoliation is the key to success! Skin always looks healthiest when there is an alignment of the cells, and they have a smooth even surface. Being cautious of harsh exfoliants is just as important! These products with large, dull granules can leave microtears in the skin and lead to further damage. Boost your body's natural abilities, boost your body's natural beauty, exfoliate!
