The cold, dry air of winter can strip your skin of moisture, leaving it dry and lifeless. The following natural methods can help you remove dead skin from your body.

1. Exfoliate with aloe vera

Aloe vera is known as a natural moisturizer. It has moisturizing properties and is quickly absorbed into dry, itchy skin. This makes aloe vera one of the best remedies for dead skin.

How to do: Prepare a little fresh aloe vera gel, honey with 1 teaspoon of rice flour in a bowl and mix well. Then, use this mixture to gently massage the face. Keep for 5 minutes and then wash your face with water.

2. Exfoliate with walnuts

How to use: Put a handful of walnuts and honey in a blender. Once blended, add a little more honey and stir well. Massage your face for a few minutes and wash your face with water.

3. Exfoliate with coffee

Coffee grounds are a great exfoliant. Because they are insoluble in water, they are effective in removing dead skin cells.

How to do: Prepare 1 teaspoon, 1 teaspoon brown sugar and 1 teaspoon honey and mix these three ingredients well. Then, apply on the face and gently massage for about 5 minutes. Wash your face with warm water and do it regularly for best results.

4. Orange peel
