Showering daily, applying deodorant or washing our hands are part of our daily body hygiene routine; they are actions that we do practically without thinking. But just because they are everyday acts does not mean that we always do them well. Curious, right? In today's post we teach you 10 things about body hygiene that you didn't know. Take note!
- Washing your hair every day is excessive
It is not necessary to wash your hair daily, but this varies depending on the hair you have. If you have oily hair or scalp, you can do it more often than people who have dry or normal hair or scalp. Even so, the most important thing is to use specific products for each hair type, like our Frequently used shampoo if you need a daily wash.
2. Deodorant daily
The deodorant is absorbed into the skin, so there is no need to use it again if you shower more than once a day. Make sure you have protection for 48 hours with our new alcohol-free roll-on deodorants. You will love them!
3. Wash your face before exercising
Washing your face before exercising and removing makeup prevents dirt from forming on your face and clogging your pores every time you sweat. If you wash your face beforehand, when you finish your exercise routine the only thing that will be left on your skin will be water and your body's own mineral salts. A body hygiene tip that you probably didn't know.
4. Water that is too hot is harmful
Just as hot water is great for removing grease from pots and pans, it also does the same for your skin's natural oils. Oh really! It is best that the water be warm. If you are addicted to bathing with very hot water, you can gradually add cold water to your bath, so that your body gets used to the change in temperature.
5. Moisturize your skin right after you get out of the shower
For correct and good hydration for your skin, it is best to do it right after getting out of the shower or bath. This way, the products will be absorbed faster and you will get better results. For complete hydration of your skin, our body milk and body oils you will love them. Choose your favorite scent and enjoy your pampering moment. Mmmhh!
6. Change the shower sponge frequently
Your sponge or glove is in a humid environment for quite some time. This environment is ideal for the growth of bacteria and, although it may seem silly to be in constant contact with soap and water, in the long run it does not stay clean. From now on, don't forget to change your sponge every two months or so!
7. It is important to clean your nails
During the day you probably wash your hands multiple times. However, when you do this, do you also wash your nails? Bacteria, dust and other dirty debris lodge under your nails, especially if you wear them very long. Wash your hands and nails with our Dermo hand soaps.
8. Don't touch your face!
In reality, if you think about it, during the day we touch our face many times and we are not aware of it. Touching your face with dirty hands or after having been exposed to the pollution of the city and everyday life, is a way of pushing oil, dirt, dead cells and waste into the pores. Avoid it at all costs or try to reduce these actions and minimize the impact by frequently washing your hands. Furthermore, under the current circumstances, we will also avoid attracting viruses and bacteria.
9. Exfoliation twice a week
Exfoliating the skin on both our face and body is an important step in body hygiene to eliminate dead cells and improve its appearance. If you don't have an exfoliant, making one at home is very simple. Mix a little shower gel with coffee or sugar and apply the mixture to your body, giving a small massage with circular movements. Pay special attention to areas such as the ankles and elbows. And if you are a fan of red fruit smells, you can't miss our new XXL Gels. Incredible!
10. Deodorant before bed
Scientifically, is demonstrated The best time of day to use deodorant is at night, just before going to sleep. It is the time when body care products have time to seep under the skin, preventing sweating during the night and in the morning. Did you know this body hygiene trick? Choose your favorite from our range of spray and roll-on deodorants!
Here are some curiosities about body hygiene! We hope they help you improve your routine at home and take better care of your skin.
