Taking a bath seems to be a mundane task that you automatically do every single morning, and hopefully, also at night when you’re done for the day. But do you know that this process can also do your skin some harm? Well, I didn’t know that and we only have one skin to live with for the rest of our lives so I would prefer to take care of it the best I could.
So let’s take a step back and learn a thing or two about things related to the showering process.
What’s the purpose of this ritual? Of course to cleanse your skin from dirt accumulating on your skin surface and because skin on the rest of your body needs the same beauty treatment like how you would invest your time for your facial skin. Body skin treatment starts from the showering process.
There are a couple of things that you need to know related to this ritual:
- That showering process can cause your skin to be very dry and flaky if you don’t use soap that’s able to give hydration to your skin. It’s because during this process not only lift up the dirt on our skin but can also cause the destruction of natural protein and lipid of our skin, which we need direly to keep it hydrated, supple and healthy.
- It;s true that your skin feels hydrated and supple after you step out of the shower because it’s able to absorb water and retain it within your skin for the first 10 minutes. But after 30 minutes, the condition of your skin will return to its normal condition. So again, it’s important to use soap that gives hydration to your skin and able to retain it and of course it;s also equally important for you to apply body lotion afterwards. (more…)
