Just soak in warm water for a few minutes and start using after that.
Works best with our exfoliating African Black soap or any AHA soap.

Scrub gently in a circular motion after first taking a shower using a moisturizing soap to soften skin and prepare it for gentle exfoliation.

For areas like elbows, knees and around feet edges, apply the exfoliating black soap and leave on for about 30 mins ( other parts of the body should be shorter time like 5 -10 mins), then wet with warm water and gently rub with loofah sponge in a circular motion.
Do this for about 20 secs. Rinse with warm water and rise again with tolerably cold water to tighten pores.

Apply a good body butter or moisturizer or carrier oil

You are advised to exfoliate your skin once or twice a week between 3-4 days interval.
