exfoliating

This might seem like a dumb question, but can someone explain to me what is an exfoliating scrub? I went to bodyshop with my girlfriend to ask about non-allergenic antiperspirant type things and she recommended an exfoliant..

    I think what the bodyshop lady was trying to get at was the dead skin is a source of the smell as well as a place for the bacteria to live and feed, therefore i should get rid of it..

    an exfoliating scrub removes excess dead skin either physically (e.g. textured grains or beads) or chemically (e.g. AHA’s – that breaks up the “gum” that holds dead skin together). As for the recommendation I’m not too sure why she chose a exfoliant…. Unless they believe that there products will work better on “new” skin?!
    Anyone else have any ideas?
