Gommage and its attractive sides
Every woman dreams of a smooth, velvety and well-groomed skin of the body and face. A variety of cosmetics and procedures can help with this issue. In any cosmetics store, you can find many products, but in this article we will pay attention to gommage.
What is face gommage 
Scrub, gommage, peeling - one and the same, however, there are still differences. A scrub is a product with the addition of large exfoliating particles, these can be seeds, ground coffee, sea salt, and more. Gommage is also a cleanser, but it has a softer effect on the cells of the skin, not only cleansing, but also caring for it.
There are two types of gommage: without and with abrasive particles. Those without particles most often contain fruit acids, due to which a gentle cleansing of the skin occurs. Those that contain particles - by themselves, they are very small, they are almost impossible to feel on the skin.
In addition to exfoliating dead skin particles, there is a cleansing, gentle massage, moisturizing and nourishing of the facial skin. Most often, gommage is presented in the form of a cream, which must be applied in a small amount to the skin of the face and neck with massage movements and left for a while. The product dries up and turns into a film, which must be rolled up with gentle movements using damp fingers. A prerequisite is that the film rolls along the massage lines of the face. Together with the film, dead skin particles, dirt and sebum are removed.
A big plus of gommage - it is suitable for the most sensitive and delicate skin, however, there are contraindications. With rosacea, inflamed skin, as well as for thin skin, which is prone to stretching and lacking elasticity, the film should not be rolled. In this case, the product is applied for a much shorter time and is gently washed off with water. Before applying the product, it is worth steam face using a hot bath with herbal infusions.
After rinsing off the product, it is recommended to apply to the skin mask for moisturizing. After the procedure, it is not recommended to appear in the sun, strong winds and frost within 24 hours. With oily epidermis, experts recommend using gommage at least a couple of times a week, for dry and normal - once every 7 days. Such a remedy is not very suitable for very young skin and for aged women. The former have too elastic skin and it is better for them to use a scrub, it will act much more efficiently, and in older women, the skin is weakened and "rolling of the film" will not lead to anything good.
Choosing the best gommage 
When choosing gommage in cosmetics stores, do not forget to study the packaging and composition of the product. It should contain natural ingredients, fruit acids, vitamins and soft abrasive particles, for example, finely ground apricot pits. A good product should contain thermal water, clay, wax or plant extracts. Choose a gentle exfoliation specifically for your skin, guided by how you care for it, what type of skin you have and how it reacts to certain ingredients.
