Dime Beauty

Whipped Body Exfoliator is a Luxury exfoliating mask for the body. It is engineered specifically for the body’s skin to break up dead skin cell buildup effectively. The skin on the body is thicker than on the face. So this formula is aggressive enough to exfoliate the body properly but gentle sufficient to nurture the skin’s barrier lipids.
