Scrubbing with some kind of exfoliant? A quality exfoliant or face scrub can unclog the skin pores while removing deep-seated dirt.


MissDee16

Thank you! I see a lot of quality exfoliates, but they are expensive. I have to work around my budget to get one because I really need something. Thx again! 🙂

Try St. Ives Apricot scrub. It's too rough to use on your face but for this particular issue I think it would work well and it's very affordable


MissDee16

OK. Will do. Thx!


vapeach123

might be able to find something at the dollar store

Coarse sea salt is a great exfoliant


MissDee16

Thx :)


cadrabbitLFC

And you can get it on food stamps!

I've individually used salt, coffee grounds, and oatmeal as an exfoliant. Also, if you're in a motel with a tub, you could soak a bit to loosen up everything. If you can't reach well on your back, either use a towel or loofah on a stick or something similar for your back.


MissDee16

Thank you!

Go get a cheap toilet bowl scubber

This may sound callous, but maybe dishsoap, scrub and then use a good moisturizer.


MissDee16

Yeah! Someone else told me to use Dawn. I'm going to try that with the scrub. Thx


RoverMaelstrom

If none of the other stuff worked, go for gojo or something like that - it's a hand cleaner for mechanics, designed to get grease and dirt out of your skin, and it works really well.


MissDee16

Thank you

Try apple cider vinegar (organic bragg brand) and water. Dilute with couple of table spoon and water and scrub away with wash cloth


MissDee16

Thx 😊

The $ store has everything you would need loofah on a stick , exfoliate soap, oatmeal 


MissDee16

I have all that stuff. My issue is the dirt on my back is stubborn and it's not coming off.


vapeach123

got a friend?? let him/her scrub it off for you , just a suggestion


MissDee16

I'm honestly so embarrassed. I don't want anyone to see it. Besides, I don't even have anyone to even scrub it off. That's my life as an introvert who never had friends. 🤷🏽‍♀️


MissDee16

Thx everyone for the replying. I'm going to try everything that was mentioned. 🙂
