You can use honey to effectively exfoliate your skin. This is a natural way to smoothen the rough surface of your skin by removing the dead skin cells on the outer layer. You can add a few drops of lemon or vinegar for better results. Rinse it off with warm water. Do these three times a week.

These solutions are all natural and proven to be effective. However, there may be instances that some people may experience allergies upon application. If this happens, stop using and consult your dermatologist.
